    For us as fans it is all about expectations, realistic or lowered, or both. I feel that it will take time to reestablish the program here.

    I agree with you about not liking this type of discussion but...... Remember that the University of Chicago was voted the top football team of the first half of the 20th century. They dropped football in the late 1930's and still were relevant. In my opinion a team should or needs to be ranked...

    I would doubt that others would consider Nebraska as a "Blue Blood" program in 2015. Maybe 1995. There is much work to be done to return to that level. Not that it can't be done but realistically the last big name bowl that Nebraska played was in the 2001-2002 season.

    Fitzpatrick has two visits in January so doubtful to have all three commit tomorrow.

    "Some smoke" - Pelini to Kentucky

    Maybe he will end up like Bud Foster at Virginia Tech. Def. Coord under a good coach. Not saying Stoops is like Beamer. Ever wonder why Foster never became a HC?

    Maybe not an epic meltdown but certainly a frustrated board. Are we chasing kids that are just out of our reach or are all slow playing their hand?

    In today's paper in Minneapolis the University of Minnesota announced that there were five commitments from the weekend visits. I know that everyone says to wait until signing day but......

    ok. so who is leaving

    It is important who and how many are leaving since it impacts who is recruited and how many open scholarships. And it might shed some light on who have been trouble during the year with negativity.

    lol Sark...

    No disrespect to anyone that posted but it doesn't matter what we think. The definition is there and nothing can be done about it. As an employer I can tell you that. It becomes a settlement and move on. Sad but true. Unless you have deep pockets to fight and then the settlement almost...

    Most coaching contracts have a behavior clause or something similar. They will give him a bit of money, the lawyers get 40%, just to go away.
