    Opening HB on Mobile is a terrible experience. I blame Riley.

    What would your personal feeling towards the program be if we have another losing season?

    I'd be okay until I read all the bad excuse-making on Huskerboard, then I'd like

    I would really be bummed out.  It would really, suck and I try not to think about it bc I know it is very possible.  I keep using the excuse of "well, we have a difficult road ahead of us".  Then I realize the difficult road is Minny, Iowa, and Wisconsin.  All teams that we should be able to beat regularly.  Wouldnt change my level of fandom, it would just really suck to see Frost miss bowl games his first 3 season as our Head Coach. Luckily, I coach football and our team has been really good the past few years, so that helps drown the sorrow of Husker Football in the fall.

    I guess it would depend on the nature of the losing season.  If *knock on wood*....*knocks on wood again* NU gets clobbered by the injury bug to key positions than there really isn't much you can do.  If it's due to absurd dumb stuff, that would certainly be more frustrating.  I've been betting on sports for so long that it takes a near catastrophic event for me to really get slightly annoyed.  I watch Nebraska because I want them to do well and people are in a better mood when the team is good.  The day I let what an 18-22 year old does on an athletic field affect my day that isn't my kid is the day I stop watching.

    UNL Athletics is not enjoyable lately. Basketball is tragic. Baseball is abysmal. Football who the hell knows. More beer.

    Mens wrestling, track and gymnastics are good but the rest of the mens sports are not and as you said they just plain stink.  Womens volleyball is the university's anchor sport right now and has been for awhile.  Track and gymnastics are  very good and several of the minor sports (meaning they exist to keep Title 9 happy) are highly ranked. 

    Mens sports need a definite kick in the pants. At least one of the major sports need to step up.

    Just the other day I was wondering, are we better overall than Purdue?  Minnesota?  Illinois?  I think not, for any of them.    Even Maryland at least has a basketball team.  It's a sad state of affairs.  Right now anyway.  :sigh:

    Reading that status update got me to wondering, ""Whatever happened to our Gymnastics program?''..Seems like we were winning national championships around the time I started going to UNL (Although I never saw a match).

    Then I tuned into the BIG10 network and saw us hosting and beating nationally ranked Penn State...But there were a lot of empty seats in the background..A little sad that we don't seem to be any better at attendance than I was back in the day.

    I couldn't even find out the final score on any of the regular sites (including here) for a couple of days.

    He's one guy who would probably make a better analyst than coach.

    Agreed. Will be interesting to see what happens. Do they get someone new or bring back Dawson to coach OLB. We need someone who knows ST though so I doubt it is Dawson.

    Nice guy, and he's the coach that has been dealing with cancer (and chemo after-effects, IIRC).

    Apathy truly is setting in. Just getting numb to it at this point. When do the casual fans just stop showing up?

    Tickets as low as $25 for Saturday's game. That stadium is gonna look real patchy with all the open seats.
