rats fleeing a near-sunk ship

I feel bad for anyone who bought the bill of goods frost has been selling. they're just 18-year old kids, after all

for a 40-something to say things like 'title' and 'NFL' to them with a straight face and then deliver what frost has, it takes a special kind of hubris/arrogance/assh*lery

RAMBO you need to back off. Tired of you spreading negative crap on here when you know nothing about what goes on in and around this program.
Shut your mouth if you have nothing good to say!

it does get rather tiresome seeing all the negative crap, doesn’t it. Myself, I’ll gladly wait and see how things go next season before I start claiming “The ships sinking” or any of that noise and BS.

When we finally had a season during a pandemic with all the issues before hand, all the spring practices and camp missed, shortened and missed practices and all of that considered, I said it before the season even started that I wouldn’t make any judgement calls no matter what, even if we went 0-8 and I’m sticking to it.

Now, onto the main subject here, N Cooper leaving is no big deal. A big hit or lose would have been if G Nelson, G Reimers, N Henrichs, W Honas, Jojo Domann, J Wright, P Payne or one of the 4 true freshmen LBs coming in. But a back up of a back up leaving (and not even that) so he has a chance to play instead of warming the bench? Yes sir, no big deal and nothing to see here. Move along.

Yep yep!! The only thing unknown here is these unknown youngsters coming here dogging this staff, program and even players when these unknown posters don't know crap!
Alot of Husker Fans are sick of these type of post that come from a handful.

hey, I guess there's always next year (for the 22nd year in a row)!

I know the exact same thing everyone on here knows:

what shows up on the field/court day after day, week after week, year after year

great news, everyone! another player is transferring!

the ship isn't sinking. it's resting comfortably at the bottom of the Mariana Trench.

we haven't been to a bowl game in half a decade and our AD is dragging our name through the mud publicly for pennies on the dollar.

Been on this board for a few days he immediately jumped out as first person to put on ignore. He’s unbearable.

Cooper played in two games and had three tackles. Seems he is buried on the depth chart. Since it looks like this year is going to be a no excuse transfer year, he’s taking the portal route.

He wasn't even a starter on his juco team if I recall correctly. Just another case of grabbing a project late in the recruiting season and having it not work out.

Niko seemed to be a good special teams guy who provided depth. Looking at our depth chart though barring injuries I don't think he was going to play much on D. Sad to see him go but IF people are going to lose their minds every time a kid transfers with the new transfer rules, they are going to be perpetually unhappy. Many people wanted basically free agency for college athletes. This is what you're going to get. I think the stats on the average college student completing their studies at the first university they enroll at is under 70%. I think nationally that number will end up being quite a bit lower for football and basketball players.

Cooper was physically put together and I thought coaches liked his potential.

And.... David Alston is still on the roster?

He's over the top right now but makes valid points at times. Nobody is overly happy with the state of Husker football right now and he's just very vocal with his unhappiness.

Since you've only been on here a couple days I'll let you know - Rambo is a good poster. Stucknks is either a troll or an idiot. Probably both. I don't agree with how Rambo goes about some of his negativity, but it's pretty hard to tell someone to be positive when the regular routine around Nebraska football is "lose, lose, lose, negative PR, transfer, transfer, embarrassing leadership, transfer, lose, negative PR, embarrassing leadership, lose..." you get the picture.

@mgbreis

For some reason this really resonated with me as one of the more accurate descriptions of the state of the program.

Cooper was a non factor. He saw what many players see. A lot of bodies in front of him and some being very young. The problem was probably from the beginning. He probably wasn't needed by NEB from the outset.
He could have counted all the bodies and seen the difficulty but he chose to ignore the numbers. I suppose its not an easy decision where to play ball when all these coaches tell you everything you want to hear. Then the truth comes out after you arrive. there will be more

Nikko wasn't offered by any other power 5 team, not even by any other Div 1 school. I think i recall he wasn't offered by any Div. 2 teams. Frost is desperate and talks way too much with only crappy coaching.

He wasn't even a stater at JUCO. Was offered by Kansas Wesleyan, Fort Hayes State, Pittsburgh State, and Nebraska.

For those of you who became a fan say, around 2003, to you the Pelini years will be the GOLDEN years for Nebraska football. ;)

Been on RSS a long time. Haven’t spent much time on free board though. Fully aware of Stuck, hard to tell if trolling or serious sometimes.

Fair. I tend to remove all ignores every so often unless I come across repeat offenders 🤪

247 shows that he received an offer from Nebraska and Maryland, but no other Power 5 teams. I guess it shouldn't be a surprise that he didn't make it here.

Yep. I don't understand why N fans feel the need to come here and post the crap Rambo post.
None of us are happy about it.

Gosh, we must be the only school that has players using the transfer portal. He is leaving because he is way down the list at his position. Do you feel better now? Oh wait, we have players off the transfer portal as well. And I thought we were the only team affected. Shame on me.

Don't think you ever met me kid. So you're statement means nothing kid
I haven't met anyone on this board, what's your point? Do you meet a lot of people you encounter on the internet? When you make idiotic all-encompassing statements like "none of us are happy about it" expect me to make fun of you kid.
