Official ****braska Hate Thread

Go get him MM

Nobody should touch this kid!!! Sadly, he is one of those guys that has been at a different school almost every year. He is barely academically eligible, and sadly is going to work his way out of football with his willy nilly decisions. Amazing that this is happening now!!!
 
An article in the Omaha World Herald makes crystal clear something that I said will haunt Frosty in his desire to somehow become a BIG10 elite program. If these running teams in the BIG10 can hold onto the ball, run the clock, pound your defense, then who gives a crap about your special fast paced offense if you never have the ball, and if your offense cannot return the favor and hold onto the ball, then you are going to get killed. Frost is built for the PAC12, BIG12 or the AAC, or maybe the ACC, but not the BIG10!!! He had to factor that in, but 7 years and $35 million at your Alma Mater is too much to say no, despite knowing it will not work out.

How do you figure?
He lost to the Pac-12 and Sun Belt. Wouldn't say he's built for that.
 
Is Rich Rod coaching anywhere? He’d be a good coach for a guy like Martinez.

True that, but he must continually beat the Wisconsin Badgers and the Iowa Hawkeyes to try and take over the West, and they will pound this Husker team into submission year in and year out. I have not really seen anything special with their offense that I have not seen from dozens of other teams, including us!!! Since Frost is not a defensive genius coach, the mighty wimpy Blackshirts will need to be built into a powerhouse defense, and that is unlikely to happen if it did not happen under Pelini, who was considered a defensive stud coach. By the way, why do they keep using the Blackshirts? The team that got throttled by Michigan does not deserve to be considered similar to the teams that were actually good 20 years ago!!! The 2015 Broncos were not the Orange Crush again, so find a new name for your crappy defense. Kids do not like to hear the "Back in 1997 we did this and we did that and the Blackshirts were this and that"!!! STFU and modernize.
 
Lets see, people from Iowa, Missouri, Oklahoma, Colorado, Kansas, Wyoming, South Dakota and Minnesota all hate Nebraska. Any other states?

Only all of them.

May be fair to expect that the states that see less of corn fans are a little more tolerant of them. States like Maine and Vermont don't see enough of them to know that they are all obnoxious, they probably assume that no fanbase can all be as irritating and stupid as the few corn fans they see.
 
I would like it noted that besides me, there is a large contengent of Seminoles and Gators with no love for the huskers. More recently, and more virulently, the UCF fan base stands as one to tell frosty to suck it.
 
Just looked at Future Husker Schedules and they are up to their old tricks of having a weak schedule to help pad the record. They used to play these weak schedules all the time.

I think one tough-ish game and two cupcakes make for a good OOC schedule. Besides, we’ve been so bad that those cupcakes beat us! I think it’s best not to take anything for granted.

When Florida bought out McElwain from CSU part of the deal was a couple of visits by CSU to Florida for a solid payout.

Don't think that Nebraska at this point would want any part of that kind of deal with UCF.

I see 12 L’s on that schedule
 
Another player leaves team, formerly a Calibraska recruit, had been the #1 RB until last week. He's taking advantage of the 4 game Redshirt rule and taking his redshirt and leaving the team.

After winning the starting running back job in August, Bell was surpassed by veteran Devine Ozigbo this week as the Huskers get ready to head to Wisconsin. A source tells HuskerOnline that Bell did not take the news well that Ozigbo would be starting this weekend in Madison.
 
Then there was this revelation in the Omaha fishwrap that coaches were surprised that Lindsey left the team.

The most notable change was a “shocker” that came Tuesday, when sophomore Tyjon Lindsey decided to transfer and preserve his redshirt eligibility after four games.
“He was getting better and better,” Walters said. “He was frustrated with the reps he was getting so he wanted to move on. So we’ve just got to focus on the guys that are here.
 
I know we make sport of this, but this massive hemorrhage of talent will crater them substantially for several years.

When frosty took over for O’Deary at UCF, the team was coming off an 0-12 season, but they were deep with talent from the Blake Bortles years.

The post-Fiesta Bowl Class is just now Juniors and seniors. Nebraska is not coming off that bounce. It will be interesting to see if frost is allowed to fill this hole he’s digging.

Solid observation!! The roster is absolutely barren, and you can not recruit to that many holes in one class. Also, they seem to be willing to take chances on iffy kids that may not stick academically or otherwise. This is at least a 3-4 year deal to even be competitive.

They are far enough away from when they were a top level that other than those who have some other connection the name Nebraska doesn't mean much any more.

They aren't going to get the top flight recruits anymore, the guys getting offers from top ten programs.

The next level of guys aren't interested in Nebraska any more. All those "traditions" that used to be impressive are old hat compared to other schools. Lincoln certainly doesn't sell anyone on going there. The big thing is everytime they go out and lose 50 something to under 20 they become less interesting to kids.

What does Nebraska have that would be interesting for a kid from California or Texas. When those kids are getting offers from PAC schools and B12 schools why would they want to go freeze for four years while getting their butts kicked every week?

Problem for them now is that the difference between them and the top B1G schools is so large that it will take multiple classes just to close the gap and in that same time period they are going to keep on losing big there is no reward for coming there.
 
Certainly just a mediocre season would have made it easier to recruit. Their work is even harder now.

Well, luckily for nebraska, scott frost developed some really strong recruiting links in Florida and didnt leave any ill will when he left UCF.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

This just keeps getting better. Nebraska is going to be Minnesota before they know it. If they’re lucky.

There is an absence of the three big recruiting and alumi states on that slate. No California, Florida or Texas.
 
So far this season:
The good?:
The O can actually move the ball.
RB play has been solid
Martinez looks to be a gifted athlete.
Unity of fanbase is solidified behind what might even be a train wreck.

The bad?:
The D
Both O and D lines.
The in game coaching decisions. Did not anticipate losing games to bad play calling. More Chip Kelly than TO while the clock is running.
The mannerisms of the HC, he falls somewhere between Pelini and Calahan. Cocky but not rude (with the press specifically). Arrogant but not self aware. The kind of personality that only a Husker fan can like, I'll give you that because I know what you are thinking.
Plays that don't exist in SF O scheme. When you have a tendency to go for it on 4th down but do not have a play with the QB under center it makes it hard to do a QB sneak for a yard. Pathetic to start 3 yards deep in shotgun.
Special teams suck.
Discipline or lack there of when it comes to penalties.

Overall grade at this point is a D. The part that keeps it from being an F is the unity between old and new. Former players feel welcome again, fans are whole again (for now), fan support is borderline amazing for a team that hasn't won at home in a year and is bottom ten in whatever poll that is.

All in all the Red fanbase is guilty of buying into the hype. I took a bet for the under but it was set at 7.... I mean, c'mon, that's like stealing. To say this state lives in a bubble is an understatement. The highlight of the season so far was the CU game both pre and post. Great having a team roll into town that you love to hate. Your traveling fans were impressive and fun. It was also the best Nebraska has looked this season.

Example of the unity on display. This was like the top juco transfer that just bolted.... ugh...
