    OT: Scandinavia

    I took my first puff of a cigarette on the streets of Oslo when I was a kid.

    Raiola and Johnson joining NU Track?

    Having an offseason to work with Dana, Dylan “should” make a massive jump from Year 1 to Year 2. If OL can do its job, I see good things ahead. <sip of koolaid>. Butler owns this defense now. Let’s see what he can do with the pieces he has. Special teams should be automatic upgrade if...

    Why Xavier Watts didn't go to Nebraska

    I won’t lie, he was the last person I thought would go on to a productive college career. I took him as a mediocre, overrated local talent. He switched positions and certainly blossomed, likely under quality coaching. Now it’s time for more guys on our roster to step up and compete for...

    Why Xavier Watts didn't go to Nebraska

    Cliff notes for everyone (hint the cliffs are the entire statement re: Nebraska)- “My top 3 were Notre Dame, Nebraska and Michigan. I wanted to go to Nebraska, but you know they weren’t very good, so I couldn’t do that.” I understand kid.

    OT N soon?

    Yeah- the new model is bring in as many as possible to have tryouts in spring, and then work hard to keep your top players going into fall, as some will not be satisfied and still be looking at other opportunities. Delicate dance.

    Ty Robinson = Rushing TD

    I thought they should have given Ty the ball on at least one of those, esp. bowl game.

    OT N soon?

    I can see this concern, but wouldn’t go too far with it. I would say across all position groups we’re only getting quality production out of maybe half or less the HS recruits. Transfers are not that much different as mentioned above. It’s a game of numbers to bring in as much talent as...

    Javin Wright coming back

    Does he need any waiver still or is he good to go? I also admire the guys who battle through adversity and don’t quit. Love to see that resilience.

    Ekeler and DL coach Terry Bradden PC 3-4-25

    This move is likely going to get us 2 more wins next year.

    New NU Holiday - Foley Contract Expiration Day

    A kicker missing a big kick, or a one-off random mistake, may not be the fault of the ST coach…. But when your unit displays CHRONIC dumpster fire levels of ineptitude, the responsible person is clear. Must have new ST coach in 2025.

    Countdown to 105

    I actually really liked him as a hybrid TE. Saw a path on defense and now phased out.

    OT N soon?

    We definitely could use a body with his frame.

    Javin Wright - hardship waiver?

    If he were allowed another year, I think he would definitely play.

    Fire Ed Foley

    From the “apparent” angle of the ball, it definitely would have gone out, but worst case is a touchback…. I would say slipping or dropping the ball both more likely on that play. Not a game changing play by any stretch, but it’s about having mental sharpness on Special Teams… every detail...
