Yes, there's loads of talk about Bolt. I am overly critical of not just Bolt but every men's revenue sport in the athletic department. Fans are seeing Bolt grow as a manager some which brings hope. He finally started playing to win by manufacturing runs instead of living on the long ball. My hope is, this continues to be seen this to end the season. (Maybe the Childress affect?)
As for a comparison between the men's & women's seasonal successes (fall, winter, spring sports) it's no even close. The Lady Huskers are winners. Volleyball (post season play), Basketball (post season play), Softball (post season play)... The men however Football (can't make a bowl game), Basketball (can't make the nit let alone win a game in March madness) bringing us to baseball. Sure, we played in the post season 2 years ago but once every 4 years is not acceptable. The men's department in it's current condition with all the amenities the fans continue to pay for remains a disgrace.
Seriously, the Ladies programs are carrying the entire weight of the husker brand as these selfish men rake in the profits while performing subpar. The fans deserve more. So too does the conference. Our men's programs are the laughing stock of the B1G. That's the truth and has been the truth for years! Heck, we can't even beat the worst team in the B1G on a neutral field in football.
