  1. They don’t have the Black Mamba to bail them out anymore, & if they lose to Iran (unlikely) or the Czech Republic (?) they’ll get a one way ticket home. More importantly why isn’t Steffon Bradford on our 3-3 Team...?
  2. My head hurts, I liked getting up & driving to Ames or Manhattan to watch the Football game...
  3. He can be the best player on the floor without putting up Kris Humphrie type numbers (led the B1G in scoring/rebounding as a Frosh, married a Kardashian) Hopefully he's surrounded by enough other good players who can share the scoring load, that he essentially takes on a James Palmer type role where if you HAVE to get a bucket, give him the ball...
  4. Just a reminder 4 of our 5 National Football Titles came against the SEC & Texas joined OUR Conference not vice versa. And Oh, how’s that Longhorn Network coming along...?
  5. Does the starting 5 game one now lean: Alonzo Bryce Trey Derrick AND... CJ/Lat?
  6. From what I heard on the Ticket today his Pops is friends with Tony Farmer & Ron Boone. Sounds like a real solid kid that’s used to the “Bright Lights” & big time competition...
  7. Success breeds success & the best players want to play with the BEST. 5 years from now we'll look back at those 20 loss seasons & frame them as growing pains borne of necessity & circumstance...
  8. “Silence is the truest form of wisdom” - Euripides
  9. I see they’re waving the alcohol ban for the Garth Brooks show, to no ones surprise $$$, I hope this doesn’t become the beginning of the end for booze @ our sporting events. Personally, he could be playing for FREE in the parking lot & I wouldn’t go.
  10. I actually have one set up in the living room AND the bedroom. Don Cornelius “Best of Soul Train” is like shooting fish in a barrel...
  11. As I was playing some of my Deep Purple 8-tracks last night, I was thumbing through my tickets from our 13-5 B1G campaign & feeling the righteous indignity ALL over again. Looks like those days are gone for good...
  12. There was a time when this fan base would’ve been over the moon @ the thought of Turner Gill as Head Football Coach & Alberts as AD. But “Frost Fatigue” has set in & the return of the prodigal son is met with skepticism now instead of the WOW factor it once held. I think it’s a tremendously solid hire & anyone that can get Dean Blaise to Omaha I’m firmly behind.
  13. Let the praise/bashing begin...
  14. *Cliff’s Notes version...
  15. Boundary Waters Canoe Area Tanqueray Fred
  16. Which famous ASU alums Won/Lost vs. Nebraska: Jake Plummer, James Harden, Danny White...?
  17. Massaging egos & getting an overly talented roster to the promised land is why we brought in Fred in the first place...
  18. It’s got everything from Peru St. to K-State to Auburn. Looks manageable & 8+ wins seems likely...
  19. Great memories Jimmy, I can’t dive that deep, but I was lucky enough to Shaq as an 18 year old. Dunked it so hard he bent the entire standard at the Olympic Festival games in Williams Arena. Saw Glenn Robinson @ Purdue & easily the greatest College player I saw in person was Wayman Tisdale.
  20. Think of the Headline possibilities when Omaha plays for the Huskers. They will endlessly rival NU’s victory over UMKC & the headline was: “Kangaroos can’t stop Hoppen”...
  21. Remember, Duke wasn’t always “Duke” & where was Baylor a few years ago? I’m not naive, but things are a lot more fluid in Basketball than the other major sports...
  22. If we start punching above our weight class, getting one-n-dones here on a somewhat regular basis & WINNING tournament games, how long until we see Duke or UNC on the schedule? Not a pie in the sky prediction, but I hope within 3-5 seasons it won’t seem unusual at all...
  23. I’m especially excited to see how Edwards & Briedenbach perform...
  24. I put myself firmly in this category, but leave it to Nebraska fans coming off back to back 20 loss seasons to lament the fact that we simply have TOO many good players...
