fretgod99 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Husker talk here - go! In Riley we trust! Right? Right? I hope it's right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersuavesky Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Ah, Glad I didn't have to make the thread. People are going crazy over the Bookie picture with the FLA hat. But there isn't any reason to really panic yet. In other news practice notes for today came out. Apparently Tyjon is already standing out. He's posted tons of hype videos on his twitter about his return from injury and everything they've said so far seems to make me believe he's as advertised. Could see some major time this year.

He seems to be very pro-Florida this past week, and he's only tweeted about Nebraska once (I think, I don't have twitter but that's the word). Would hate to lose him.

He retweeted Nebraska just today. As long as they can hold him until December we'll be fine. Tyjon's play will only help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersuavesky Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 PFF (Who I rarely pay attention to) Rated Deontre Thomas as one of the top performing freshman for the second week in a row. You can barely tell the difference between him and Stoltenberg which is damn impressive considering One is a 300+ Junior while the other is a 280 pound true freshman. If he's healthy for his time at NEB our NT for the next few years won't be a problem. Which is, obviously, huge for a new 3-4 Scheme. NT was the position I was most worried about.

fretgod99 Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 Can he play offensive line? Can anybody play offensive line? It doesn't look like it ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strong chance we'll see Jameis this week. True freshman from Texas. We knew the line would be an issue but not this bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fretgod99 Posted September 20, 2017 Author Share Posted September 20, 2017 It's brutal. Lee has thrown a boatload of picks. He hasn't looked great. But it ain't entirely his fault. Hard to hit a target when you get blasted in the chest while throwing. Hard to say it was a bad decision when the pass literally bounces off your receiver's facemask, after going between his hands. Hard to be effective when you're constantly running for your life. I don't think I've ever seen NU's line play this poorly. I'm honestly not sure why it's this bad. I expect growing pains on defense; that happens when you change systems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersuavesky Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 For sure, it's the coaching. This is an experienced group as well. Not like a bunch of kids who are new to the college game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supersuavesky Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Didn't see it coming that fast. Heat is on for Reily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not a huge fan of how things are going with Riley right now, but I also don't know how excited I'd be by firing him this year, either. After the huge debacle we had with Solich getting fired after 9-3, dumb-lucking into Callahan (who was awful) after an embarrassing search, firing Pelini after 9-3 and other assorted embarrassments, and the embarrassing search that lead to Riley getting hired, the last thing this program needs is another ridiculous coaching search, especially this soon. Not at all comfortable with how any of this is playing out, to be honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersuavesky Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I still think this season turns out fine. The NIU loss was a legit upset but the Oregon one was probably expected. Nothing about our goals for the season have changed. We can still accomplish everything we set out to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LuckyNumber11 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I just really hate the timing of the Eichorst fire. Makes Riley look like a lame duck coach, and it's pretty damn hard to recruit with that. Would've rather just let his contract run out in December Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because this recruiting class was shaping up to be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
