And qb will be much more like the last 3 games than the first 9 games. The only hope is that our DC is a miracle worker, and we can find some identity on offense. Losing our st coach is going to hurt. We have had to rely to heavily on coordinators and position coaches because Rhule doesn't coach anything, and that friction between coaches paid 15% of Rhule doing most of the work, and Rhule, who wants to have "final say" has cost us some good coaches and any chance at maximizing limited talent.


Transfer QB we have now is better than Raiola.

The best players do not enter the portal unless it's major millions or out eligibility at that school

So crying over the portal is a waste of time. We were 6th nationally last year. What good did that do us. We didn't address needs.

The Heisman trophy winner was in the portal. Denver’s and Seattle’s starting RBs were transfers before the portal was even a thing.

Proof of their incompetence or your ignorance?

That there is skepticism is proof that people see through HCMR's bullsh!t.

Him coming out after the fact saying he likes the room as-is feels like a guy who get left at several alters.

This isn't the 1995 depth chart. This room is much weaker year-over-year and it was important to improve. HCMR didn't, and is now retconning his failure as an all-the-while intent to stay the course.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

Very few expected EJ to have the year he had this year. Not many expect Nelson to have a good year this fall. We’ll see. He has in fact put some good things on the video. Until we have a successful returning all conference kind of back, nobody is going to be very confident of our RB room. Saying this is a terrible RB room is conjecture. Rule hasn’t even practiced yet.

And DJ Lagway was considered the best QB in the country. Who was talking about Mendoza. We were hyping our own QB# possibilities.

Not to mention playing at Cal. Of course hes going to upgrade for the money. No one was expecting him to be the Heisman winner.

I'll give you this. The best players from the best teams aren't leaving unless they get millions thrown at them.

Simply saying the people in the portal arent the best players in the country with obvious exceptions.

And we did not really improve our defensive line all that much. And we did not replace EJ with an equal talent at running back.
Going to be another long and disappointing season. It will be amplified by exponentially increasing pressure to get rid of Rhule. The program will be in a bit of turmoil with tons of dissatisfaction from fans.

Very likely. Plus the sharks will be surrounding Trae and a few of our other highly thought of commits.

4 will be tough. I still think we start the season 2-1 and shvt will get real. Just a feeling.
I know this is an old thread, but if NU loses one of those 1st three games they are not winning any more the rest of the year. Ohio, Bowling Green and North Dakota should not have a fighters chance. However, the more and more I watch Rhule’s teams Iowa school for the deaf may give us a run for our money.
Why... because when a team has the letters "I o w a" on their jersey Rhule pisses his pants and forgets who he is for 3hrs

I hate Iowa more than your brain can process. What I hate more is getting hear about it from their dumb *** fans, because Rhule gets his own *** handed to him every year. I would love nothing more than to have this years team actually win a game that matters, until than you need to deal with the truth

Against Ranked Opponents

Nebraska last 10 years - 1-30
Rhule @ Nebraska - 0-8
Rhule's career - 2-24

I am not going to drink kool-aid until the team actually does something to earn my respect back.

Yea,I’m aware of all the facts I’ve been a fan for 63 years.

Get behind the team or find another team.
