  • RE: Open Coaching Spot May Already Be Filled
    This really would be a shocker as Bo was reiterating, not long ago, that he was in no hurry to fill the spot. I suppose time will tell if this is true.

  • RE: Taylor Martinez Quietly Climbing Record Books
    On top of the line, the other reason we were all so excited by those teams is that Frazier, Frost and Crouch were not out there trying to do it all with themselves and one running back. While we had good O-lines, I think the most important factor from those eras …more »

  • RE: Recruiting Round Table Wrap Up
    James Moore, The reason that the 1996 team was ranked in the top 5 after returning 7 starters was because they DOMINATED the sport the year before winning every game by at least 2 touchdowns, most by more than 40 points. Even when returning 7 starters, if your coaching staff is …more »

  • RE: A Brief History of Husker Recruiting: 1990-99
    How can this lead someone to believe that this, well researched and informative, article helps to put Pelini behind the curve of other coaches at Nebraska? Sure if you look at the overall numbers Pelini is slightly behind the curve. However, look at that 1991 class that began it all for …more »

    You are taking what you want out my post and leaving the rest behind. My point was that you don't always need star power in order to make a consistantly winning team, example the Broncos never having a class ranked higher than 55. You mention Marlon Lucky as our last solid …more »

  • RE: Legends and Leaders Division Names to Continue
    Great way to look at it BigRedNOkc. You should publish!

Sure they now have hired outside after the scandal, however prior to that nearly every coach was promoted from within and …more »

  • RE: Moves, Departures Make News Among Arrivals
    I agree with Wb63. For example the recruiting class of 1991 was ranked number 28 and they were arguably one of the most dominating classes in college football history.

  • RE: Recruiting Round Table Wrap Up
    I have to remind people about Bo's decisions to hire coaches could go a little deeper than, " He wants to be the expirienced one." His decisions are not his alone and would not be made that way if that was the excuse he gave. I find it much more likley …more »

  • RE: Walk-on highlights
    Nice job with this. I really like the look of that Fullback, Carson Collins. If we could beef him up a bit more he could be a replacement for Burkhead. He was quick.

  • RE: Will the 2012 Class Live Up to 2007?
    In 1991 the Nebraska Cornhusker's incomming class was ranked 28th in the country. I don't think I need to remind anyone of what that class accomplished.
