I guess it's a lot better than having long threads opining on what Fred will need to do to keep his job this year.  

 

So what will Fred need to do to keep his job next year?

Maybe if he puts the little nubbin back on the bottom of the N that'd be enough?

Thank you for providing the Brand Guide, hhcmatt. It was a very interesting read. Definitely some items in there that I did not realize. And by the way, I merely asked the question to stimulate discussion.

It’s a topic certainly worthy of discussion, especially when you consider when Beating your Instate Rivals the Star ️ Players are awarded Football Jerseys.

I bet Hugh can !!  Back row L to Rt- don’t know, Martz, Trotter, Jackman, Hoppen, Vic L, name can’t remember- but I think he was on Husker team a few years( he was from Hastings or Beatrice?), Kellog, don’t know and I don’t know the front guys.  
 

This pic was REALLY stumping me until you said high school all-stars.  Da, it just wasn’t computing…gettin old.

Ok, so looked it up…James Moore is the feller next to Vic ?  If so, found out  he’s from Om Burke and Martz is the one from Beatrice.  I believe Martz stuck it out at NU, but Moore moved on after two yrs.  Somebody gonna fill us in on the other guys ?

I'll take that bait. I think he's 100% safe. I think this year determines what his benchmark will be next year.

If he Wins the B1G Title, how LONG of an Extension do you think they would offer…?

My honest guess... 5 years.

League Title?  At Nebraska???  A program that hasn't won a regular season league title in something like 65 years?  My man, that's a lifetime contract extension and there is no question about it.

Some people may mistake this "New Floor" thread as a "Rock Bottom" thread...

One could argue the best player in the state in that class was not on the team.  Bart Kofoed. We went to the Metro all-star game the summer after they graduated.  Kofoed was really impressive.

He started his college career at Hastings. Then, he transferred to Kearney State.

Nah. But I don't disagree with the sentiment. Besides the contract I'd like to share my 1st thought about this discussion. My 1st thought was Pfffft, I'd bet my last dollar Nebraska would win the league title and promptly lose in the 1st round of the tournament because...Nebraska

I was delighted to hear the Players talk @ B1G Media Day about making a Run in the Tournament & not just Winning 1 Game.

As they should. That "1st rd." monkey shouldn't be on their back.
