Wasn't the greatest pass ever but happy to see a legit td pass and happy to see Fidone make a good snag. Lord knows we missed or dropped enough of those would be td's over the years.

NOBODY wants him to fail. Let’s just be rational about his abilities. Big strong athletic kid who has some shortcomings in the passing game. In other words he’s pretty typical of many NU QBs over the last 40 years.. There’s a reason we haven’t had QBs drafted as QBs for decades.
After 2 starts? Geezus dingle. Embarrassing stuff from you

surely you can admit you were wrong when during the spring game you said "there's no chance he plays this fall" after you said who cares if he's hurt?
That was before Thompson and Smothers transferred. You refuse to answer the question of whether or not recruiting QBs like Haarberg is good enough for NU.

Reading a post that says people will be clamoring for Jeff Sims after next week says different after only his second start in this very thread. Multiple years plus 2 games as a starter this year Sims is exactly the same. Dingle has really led the crusade against HH since spring. Sad deal for the kid. Just glad @dinglefritz has no say in.
Geezus. Crusade against Haarberg? Really? Being rational about a player is hardly a crusade. Kong on the other hand has suggested a QB should commit suicide.

I would argue LT defense is every bit as good as Colorados. With that said. I'm not going to go over the top about HH. But exactly what have we seen out of Sims to be clamoring for him to be a starter? Poor decisions many turnovers has been Sims story this year. HH is every bit as dangerous as Sims running and yes HH throws the ball high. But he doesn't turn the ball over. HH has 2 total starts in his career. Sims has what 3 years. Sims is who he is.

It amazes me at the people that just seem to want HH to fail.
Or Nebraska football in general. Good Lord, the play was a decisive game changer and a very satisfactory win but the experts here can only talk about 1) the pass was too high 2/3) the OL play was only decent and their Coach has not been fired yet 4) WE SUCK.

At some point he's going to have to take that brace off and let go of the injuries. He still looks very awkward running

LOL

weren't you the guy spending the entire off-season spouting off about how just making a bowl game is a huge step in the right direction?

now that Haarberg is our QB, you're talking about beating michigan & winning
conference titles.

love to see it. keep moving those goalposts, Mr. Insecure.

"I was wrong". try it sometime. it's super easy and makes you look much less like a blowhard.

You’re a liar. Answer the question. Is recruiting high schoolers with Haarberg’s resume and offer list good enough for you ? Is it good enough for us to win conference titles?

It was definitely a poor throw as were most of HHs today. He throws a nice tight spiral though. The pass to TF was lead high and TF made a great leaping catch.
He was under pressure as always .when he has a clean pocket (very rare) he is like most QBs throws a decent ball.

Thought the same thing. Looks like he could truck someone if he got going but still looks a little rusty and missing some burst. Not hard to see the athletism though that made him such a coveted recruit. Looks like a great end zone jump ball candidate.

You have been on one since spring. But yet he is 2-0 and not a turnover machine with only 2 starts. You do not deal on facts. You are clueless.

He won't answer. He has embarrassed himself constantly. Especially here lately. His post have zero substance.

Also worth mentioning that HH graduated high school during COVID when he couldn’t go to any camps

If you don’t think a 6’5” Adonis with 4.5 speed and a howitzer arm wouldn’t have blown up with offers, you’re once again being willfully ignorant

We’re very lucky he grew up here, and it was not a mistake to take him, as you said and continue to believe

Haarberg doesn’t run 4.5.

Aren’t you one of the people who think we are a developmental program and also a massive supporter for giving Rhule time? let’s focus on winning enough games to get bowl eligibility before we talk conference titles.

A lot of good Nebraska QBs had low throwing stats but good enough to win on the ground. Even Satterfield said we will happily take a mistake free game where we run the ball 80% of the time and win 21-7… we won 28-14.

But if he takes that brace off he might start running down highways like Forrest Gump and return with a beard brushing his navel and hoping to find two more years of eligibility. Those braces allow a career to happen not hinder it. Especially with a player who has had two major surgeries.

So what do you want? Another transfer QB that couldn't cut it at his previous school to ride pine with Sims and Purdy while Heinrich Haarberg earns respect because he can cut it and is here for Nebraska winning not NIL.

I find it just delightful that purdy “showed some things” to @dinglefritz last year to convince him we could win with him. Talked about him all off-season.

Haarberg goes 2-0 and he’s looking to the portal while asking who else offered him.

Literally could go no other way.

Absolutely hilarious.

Chubba Purdy has had many opportunities to prove he is as bad *** as his brother at both Florida St and Nebraska. Sadly he has not born any fruit for either team on the field of play. If Chubba decides to live the rest of his life in Nebraska I would welcome him. Same for Jeff Sims. On the football field though is is what it is.
