    Family Vacation

    I am going to put a plug in for my area. Lake Chelan, Washington. Hot days with no humidity. Cooler nights. Water is so clear you can see the bottom in 50 feet of water, but it is cold. Not too cold to swim. Comes right off the mountain snow. The lake is about 55 miles long and very deep. Take...

    What sports have you coached?

    [/USER] I helped two co-workers who were brothers coach baseball when their boys were in elementary school. Both brothers played college baseball, so I did not have to do too much. Our team was always good. The brothers each had a son that were good players (both played small college baseball)...

    Mike'l Severe: Nebraska's Reality & Rhule's Tenure on Carriker Chronicles

    I like Adam, but I wish he would ask follow-up questions when the people he interviews make certain statements. I believe Mike said that the Huskers lost a lot of games under Rhule by 3-4 points? Last season the Huskers lost to Michigan by 3 and USC by 4 points but the four other losses were by...

    Cool Husker Hat I Picked Up A Few Weeks Ago

    Hats are not cheap. The good ones are costing $40 bucks or more. I don't know how long Branded Bills has been around, but I just discovered them this winter. Their hats have good ventilation. The logos are made of a rubber like product. I bought a hat with an American flag on it and a red hat...

    Matt Rhule was the best available hire at the time

    I was in Nebraska last week. I talked to just about all of my old friends I saw about the Huskers. A few of my friends are on the "give Matt more time" plan or they just think it is stupid to spend large sums of money to fire another coach. I think more of them are hopeful, but cautious about...

    NCAA QB situation

    I will not be surprised if Jackson Arnold has a good year by playing against the lower level of competition at UNLV.

    Can Anyone Here Help Nyziah Hunter Out?

    I have a few questions. Is Hunter in Lincoln this summer? If he is, does he have access to the football facilities? I assume he does. So, doesn't the football complex have a jug machine?

    CBS Sports: Inside Dylan Raiola's Nebraska divorce: NIL drama, family influence and Oregon's QB succession plan

    I am betting he does not come out of spring practice after next season as the projected starter therefore I believe DR will have one more transfer in him. Lots of things can happen. Moore could get hurt next season giving Dylan a chance to play, but the Ducks are not just going to hand the...

    Big 10 Champs Husker Softball. Jordy to coach

    Revelle and Yori would not even look at my goddaughter. She was Super State in both basketball and softball. She is 6 feet tall and a stud. Now as a forty-one-year-old with three boys she is playing beach volleyball in Southern California. She and her 21-year-old playing partner just came in...

    Big 10 Champs Husker Softball. Jordy to coach

    None of them are athletes, but quite a few kids from here in Eastern Washington go to Grand Canyon. I think the alure is it is in Arizona, but mainly because it is a large Christian university. It is good students too. The local paper profiles the top ten students at our two 4A High schools...

    Big 10 Champs Husker Softball. Jordy to coach

    Why didn't Meylan choose to play for the Huskers. Seems to me she turned them down twice. First when she came out here to play for U Dub and then the second time when she transferred to Okie State. She has Husker roots, too.

    Big 10 Champs Husker Softball. Jordy to coach

    I am concerned about the lack of hitting. Watching Okie State and other teams this weekend the better teams seem to have more offense than the Huskers. Still have to give Jordy and Jensen a lot of credit for their great pitching. GBR!!!

    New Nebraska Quarterback Reveals Expectations for 2026

    I am making my annual Memorial Day weekend trip back to Nebraska to see old friends this week. I am looking forward to hearing what the old crowd has to say. (if this Wednesday you see an old man wearing a white baseball hat riding an e-bike around campus and downtown with another old guy...

    Matt Rhule was the best available hire at the time

    I am sure you are right on Trev wanting to run away from Lincoln as fast as he could after he hired Rhule. I don't think it would take long being around Matt the Hat to figure out he is all hat and no cattle.

    Subaru’s

    From the edge of town to our ski hill, it is 12 miles. The first 8 miles the road is relatively straight with a gradual 1200 feet elevation gain. The speed limit is either 40 mph or 50 mph. The last 4 miles has several hairpin turns and switch backs with an elevation gain of about 2600 feet. The...
