Poorly-Aged tPB Takes

[2010sarenevercomingback]

Lettuce all take some time to laugh at some of the freezing cold takes that have been poasted here. Even the world's greatest message board is not immune from some very smooth brain opinions & predictions.

I'll start with myself - I wasn't on tPB during the Frost era, but in May of 2021 I was still deluding myself on other sites that the 4th season could have some kind of turnaround:



With Colorado crashing & burning while Deion does the worst high school recruiting of any coach in the modern era, a good jumping off point for this thread is the posters who were suggesting that he'd be a home run hire & specifically talk about how amazing his recruiting would be.

Choca kicks us off:



Duck knows ball! Goes hard in the paint on multiple posts about it:






Juggernaut!


Recruiting, player retention & Husker fans will love how he talks!




Fun times as CU starts a white walk-on RB this year:


Definitely.

Welp.


I know lots of you are also petty enough to bookmark or search posts to find the memorably bad ones on all sorts of topics. Please add your favorites!

I was absolutely a hater for the Knighton hire (as well as other AC’s), but that one aged pretty bad

I have arrived!!!

 

[wildcat_husker]

I didn’t want Deion.

If Deion wasn’t lazy and wanted to recruit well, he could. I don’t think he’ll ever change his approach.

Most of those posters probably didn’t expect him to basically refuse to do in-home visits lol

 

[iruletheskool]

I have arrived!!!

I think at this point the rumours were Matt Campbell

I wanted to wait a couple more games before bumping this thread on myself, but I’ll gladly pull this take out of the deep freeze for all to see.

I was telling everyone I was going to kill myself because I was convinced we were hiring monkey tits

 

[Cornicator]

It would be really painful sitting here today watching guys like Ty Robinson, Nash Hutmacher, Isaac Gifford, Jimari Butler, Gbayor, Buford, Tommi Hill, and Singleton starting for other Power 4 programs while Nebraska would be trotting out a bunch of transfers from schools like Liberty, UTEP, and South Florida, and Pitt.

 

[Tonkasker]

i wanted deboer and that aged spectacularly but i fed you guys like a dozen wrong Cockeye OC candidates lmao

did find this looking for cold takes. Might be an inflection point https://theplatinumboard.com/threads/the-simulation-is-defeated.12934/

This thread is gonna lit!

 

[BIG TONE SOPRANO]

This has to be quite embarrassing

 

[Mavsker]

My worst take...what might have been for A&M

 

[Driveway Jordan]

Great shit. I'm not going to lie...there were times during that 76 day search when I would talk myself into just about anyone as our HC (except Mickey).

 

[HuskerGarrett]

I think at this point the rumours were Matt Campbell

I do remember the Deion talk heated up when it was looking like monkey tits was a legitimate backup to Rhule

 

[Mavsker]

Gotta add my kiffinposting

 

[HughJanus]

I was all aboard the DeioN train when that podcaster started the rumor.

 

[skersker]

It’s leipold

An absolute scorcher that I don't think even the Scrolls Mt Olympus of Boiler, Rgrachek, Sam I Am, Rufus, Jim, Dean himself, and Mongo can touch
