    More revisionist derp from Barry Tramel on Nebraska leaving the Big XII

    Linky link link. Of note: This is why Barfy of the OWH can go f**k himself about stopping the hate parade on Texas, et al--frankly, if we do stop, then Dodd's minions of Beebe, Tramel, et al will deluge us with so much revisionist derp that people are going to take their account of events...

    Dan Beebe Spews Derp on Dr. Tom

    ESPN Link here. Radio interview with ESPN Austin - The Whorn Of note: Bottom line: Dan Beebe, having mismanaged the conference to 10 teams, tries to say it was Dr. Tom holding a grudge for why Nebraska left. :facepalm: The radio interview goes a bit further, including how Texas...

    Big 10 Gearing for Further Expansion?

    Of note: Boston Globe link Makes sense. Maryland would get the D.C. and Baltimore, MD markets, while Georgia Tech would grab part of the Atlanta market. Both are very "poachable" targets, too, IMO--good academics, good fanbase, good media markets. I'd personally rather see the Big 10 go...

    Pac-12 Is Movin' On Up to the East Side...

    They're finally getting their piece of the pie: Link to Matt's College Sports Media Blog Of note: This puts the Big XII firmly behind the B1G, SEC, and Pac-12. And while the ABC/ESPN part of the Big XII's contract is up in 2014/2015 (IIRC), the Pac-12 will have their network up and going...

    How would you improve baseball in the B1G?

    It's been kicked around for a while now that the only sticky wicket with our move to the B1G is the lack of quality baseball played in the conference. In the interest of keeping our minds occupied while we watch MA muddle through the spring/early summer and wait for July 1 to arrive, what would...

    Greener Pastures for Nebraska 2

    Per Dodd, CBS Sports Five things here (updated from the first thread): 1. This, factored in with the ABC/ESPN agreement, is only (only!) $190 to $220 million/year (per Steve Sipple) for the Big XII to split until 2015-2016. 2. This money is only for airtime on the Fox Sports cable channels...

    Supporting Stats to Can Mike Anderson

    247Sports Link After the piss-poor showing against T. Boones Farms Pickens U, anyone who is still optimistic about Nebraska Baseball this season would even outshine Mr. Rogers in terms of having a cheerful outlook. But from the 247Sports Link boards: Long story short, there are posters that...

    Why Nebraska left for "greener" pastures...

    My link Four things here: 1. This, factored in with the ABC/ESPN agreement, is only (only!) $130 million/year (per Steve Sipple) for the Big XII schools. ESPN agreement is likely to increase, but not to the tune of $70 million more/school/year. 2. This money is only for airtime on the Fox...

    Has Delany/B1G done more for Nebraska than the Big XII?

    The Ivan Maisel thread saying how more and more he likes Nebraska going to the B1G and how harmonious the marriage will likely be got me thinking about our contentious history with the Big XII conference and how little the conference has done for Nebraska. Perhaps I'm not being subjective, but...

    "Big 12 doesn’t have enough quality football games"

    Article Link to NewsOK Of note: I do think Berry Trammel is being wayyyy to generous regarding the number of "quality" games. And to add salt in the wound, the Big XII now inherits the problem the B1G had until next season--being relevant post-Thanksgiving. Hope the schools have a...

    Nebraska is Top Draw for 2011 Big 10 Games per CFN rankings

    Link to College Football News Composite Schedule for Big 10 Of note: Not too shabby. With the exception of the Minnesota game (understandably so), we're either the best or second-best draw in the conference per CFN. And frankly, the fact that we don't drop below third for what will be a...

    ESPN Q&A With Rex Burkhead

    Adam Rittenberg needs to slow down and pace himself, or he'll run out of material before we get to March. :koolaid2: ESPN Link Of note: One of the issues from season seemed to be a lack of team leadership. Rex seems to be the type of kid we want to step up, especially at such a critical...

    Can the rest of the staff pull the Defense around?

    I ask this because certain 'well-informed' folks on other boards have intimated that CozBohl has quietly been relieved of his DC title and is only now coaching the Linebackers, with the Defense being run by committee/Callahan. If that's the truth of the matter, can the rest of the staff get it...

    University of Nebraska Tells RIAA to STFU, DiaF

    Article :w00t Mind you, UN-L is looking to add software to prohibit students from accessing various P2P sites to prevent this from happening, but at least they're not ratting out students and telling the RIAA to piss off by billing them.

    GA Tickets for Nebraska @ Texas are a No-Go

    Just called down to the Ticket Office in Austin to try and purchase tickets for the Nebraska @ Texas tilt, and what I got out of the ticket office was a little disconcerting. Per 'Operator 33', they are telling folks to plan on there not being any General Admission tickets for the season...
