No. I would not have been happy with M.R. Mike Riley is one of the few humans on the planet that makes KF look like a risk taker.

Ahhh, you just might want to look up you're own history.

Easy to blather about your credentials on a message board, but the facts still speak for themselves, and they say you are a moron.
However, the way you put some of your sentences and comments together, it points to a person who clearly spent more time at those institutions of higher learning in a janitorial capacity than in the classroom.
"If you take away 3 guys that were each with the program roughly 20 years each (yes evy became an ad) no one last more than 5" don't mind the fact we have had 2 coaches the last 40 years combined.
If my aunt had external genitalia she would have been my uncle.
No doubt you have an extra uncle then.

Ughhh. Yeah.... that dum dum had to come to our state to get a master's because schools where he is from are hard...... that really what you want to go with? I'm not going to go into the long story of how I ended up at NWU.
Thankfully you didn’t, it would have been on a par with all the other drivel you spew here, cognitive dissonance void of substance.
Yawn. You continue to down play an education received from the 2nd and 3rd best institutions in your state. Think you make a bowl game this year?
Well, another interesting thread of name calling and lack of substance.
Iowa is improving and represents the B1G well. Kirk has done a very good job and the program is becoming more consistent with better recruiting. The proof is in their consistent record.
Nebraska likes to live in the past of Heisman and NC winners. Too many like to throw that up like it makes some difference today. It's like the employee who tells everyone at work they we're the valedictorian of their class, who cares what happened 20 years ago?
I agree that Iowa is getting better. They recruit better and coach better. How many recruiting battles have we lost to Iowa? What does that say?
Iowa has literally owned Nebraska of late. Until that changes on the field, they have bragging rights. That's the way it works. You win, you earn that right, we have not won, get over it.

At least we know we suck.
We ain't holding our less than sucking more than Nebraska trophy above our heads and running over to other message boards and claiming that we suck less than Nebraska.

I’m not downplaying the schools, they’re both fine institutions of higher learning, don’t know where you get that from. I’m downplaying you, as you clearly show getting an education doesn’t equate into making a person much smarter or wiser. And to answer your question, yes, Nebraska will make it to a bowl game after the regular season is done.
Maybe you should be an Iowa fan until such changes happen.
Fair point. I always felt Iowa would be a consistent contender for conference championships if they were able to increase the talent another level. Will be fun to watch the next few years.
Well I care what happen 20 years ago, I also care what happen 30 and 40 and 50 years ago too.
We have a proud history....It's called a winning tradition..
Scott Frost was part of that history, and he embraces it. You need to look back on what made you great to get back to being great again. You might take a different road to get there, but get there nonetheless.
I didn't avoid anything, "what did you have in mind"? Do you live in Omaha or Lincoln by chance? I'm not making a decade bet with someone on the interwebz without there being a remote chance you would pay, I'm odd like that.

Not a "fan" but I respect what they have done. There is a difference.

Thankfully, Nebraska now has an athletic director that doesn’t have s**t for brains & made the correct hire in Scott Frost. There is a lot of optimism for the future. Only time will tell. But, things are looking a hell of a lot brighter now. To kind of stay on topic, thanks to Spencer for the tweet.

I do want to say, other than Callahan and Riley’s poor seasons, it hasn’t been that bad, relatively speaking. But a program like Nebraska doesn’t really jive with not being in the national discussion.
Especially so considering the physical, mental, and monetary resources Nebraska allocates to the football program. I still say Frost hit the nail on the head when he said, “This program needs that again; this STATE needs that again.”
Wait a tick...... Doane and Iowa but not NWU? Your not by any chance a sunflower/coyote/plainsmen/prairie wolf yourself?
Absolutely not. NWU definitely sucks too. No one should consider any college/university in Nebraska some elite academic institution.
