I received the following from the Coloradans For Nebraska web site: We are presently at 750 for 2007, but we will pick up a lot of members at the Watch Parties, so we should be around 1,000 by the end of the year. John@coloradansfornebraska.com Check out our web site and yes, Old Chicago in...

From rojo: Twenty O-Linemen. Three Seniors. We notice how young our O-line is. Some with considerable WCO experience, some not. Some having logged playing time; many not. But young. Twenty O-linemen. Three Seniors---only two of whom have been starters. . Our O-line sorted by class...

It seems to me that, like last year, the ISU game will be the pivotal one for the Big 12 North championship. My thinking is that MU (new QB), KSU (new QB, new staff), KU (few returning) and CU (new QB, new staff) leaves ISU (good returning base) with a good chance to beat all of them. It's also...

Since we don't play OU everyear nor any of the Big 12 South's teams, do we need a new rival? CU years ago claimed us under the Red Letter Day on their calendar, but many of their fans, mostly students, are so vile. We're their rival, but who cares? Maybe we can select another Big 12 North team...

Anthony West, Ricky Thenarse, Cruz Barrett, Maurice Purify, Kenny Wilson or who? I'd like to know your choice and the reasons behind it. Obviously, the competition at that position is a big factor. Can a lineman shine in the trenches? Does our weakness, at CB this past season, allow someone...

From rojo: Colorado signed a quarterback---Cody Hawkins (Coach Dan Hawkins' son)---5’ 11” 176-lbs (Rivals). Rivals lists him as their #17 pro-style QB; he was also an Elite 11 QB last summer. He plans to greyshirt (and grow) this year. The Boulder Daily-Camera carried this comment on the...

What are the chances that Austin, with his leg being a permanent 85%, will be a backup? It looks like, with this new JUCO class, the competition for starting OL spots is going to be fierce. What do you gals/guys think?

This is from a forum for which I am NOT a mamber as "penned" by rojo: Here’s a quick, somewhat superficial look. I. Last year’s best Big 12 defense? --Kansas, Texas and Oklahoma are right there. See below. . II. Next year’s best Big 12 defense? --Not Kansas. Not Iowa State. Both had solid...

Let's have an email "suggestion box" and put in names that could be used to select an ideal name for the current Huskers offense. Something that will stick and would catch on with the rest of the country as the moniker would make us identifiable and unique. The MidWest Offense sounds pretty...

There has been much ado about Freeman changing his mind. There have been others and there will be more who change their mind, because that's the nature of this business. If we sign someone who has comitted with another team, it's wonderful; if we get a commitment from a player and he then...

Given that Herian is solid at one TE, how about the other when 2 tight end sets are in or a backup for Herian? My sense is that Phillips is a blccker who rarely will catch the ball. Is Mueller the heir to that other postion and as a backup to Herian? The TE is crucial to the WCO and it's...

As many of you know, I share posts from another thread that is free (I'm not a member). Kudos to rojo: In 2004 Nebraska had the worst Special Teams in the conference—12th place. But in '05 we finished in a virtual tie for the best in the Big 12. I. Ranking Special Teams: The Method Use the...

Can someone explain to me why any qualified coach would want to work for Al Davis. Almost everyone in the last 15 years has been fired or ran away! If the owner doesn't get to you as HC, the premadonna players will. Just ask BC! Davis still owes Shanahan $250K in unpaid comp.
