I've been on here a while ... and I've watched these threads and posters for long to to form an "opinion".
Sadly, most of these folks aren't joking. It happens every time and the way they talk within the post certainly suggest they are not joking. People actually thought we were gonna steal one or more recruits from Florida ... the next day we find out different news about that coach. Mangino goes out ... we are gonna steal someone from them ... 7-10 days later Turner Gill is there. The speculation on this board is absolutely crazy.
Yes, other boards can and do do this ... so, I guess from the responses ... we should/can do this as well. But then again ... I thought Husker fans are "different". I would like to put myself in that catagory.
Fact is ... TT killed us this year, absolutely embarrassed us ... and has beaten us pretty consistent in the past five years.
Fact is ... a human being is being accused of something.
Fact is ... we don't know all the facts.
Fact is ... I would gather with our recent history ... that we would lose a recruit like Quincy Enunwa. We lost CC and Gabbert because of their view of our offensive future ... so who knows. We got a RB in the same way ... so let it shake out.
Finally, if I gather what you are saying, I suppose Turner Gill will have something happen ... this former Husker great, who is also a brother in Christ ... and within minutes we will have a thread ... "Kansas sucks, who can we steal?" ... and you are fine with that and I should just lighten up ... it's just a joke.
If that's true ... then I shut up ... if not ... then please take 5-6 posts to paint me out as someone who should "lighten" up.
Remember what you represent guys ... even in the small things and the "appearance" of things. You have an "N" on our helmet ... we are Nebraska.
Just my opinion ... saying it loud ... hear it or let it fall on deaf ears I suppose.
Nuff said,
