from the athletic. I'll spoil it:

NU's highly touted classes re-ranked dead last in P5 (2017) and second to last in P5 (2018) based on on-field performance.

some may be surprised to hear this. I am not. retention and development are 2 words rarely spoken in north stadium, it appears.

yea, that's depressing. no other way around it. part of the reason i've grown to envy iowa. they recruit local kids who want to be at iowa, and by the time they are juniors and seniors, they kick our ***. seven years in a row now.

the fact our house is a pile of smoldering rubble doesn't make the rundown shanty next door any more valuable

With every level of the onion that gets peeled back on Frost’s oversight of this once proud program, it’s just exposes another magnitude of inept.

If this is true then our record says we overachieved by winning any games. Maybe THAT'S why Frost got an extension.

2017 the last class in the P5 but had 3 dudes that will be drafted in it. 😂

We had almost double the wins in the last 4 years then Kansas but yeah, I’m sure our classes are as bad as Mitch Sherman ranks them. Mitch learned long ago there are 2 ways to succeed in journalism. 1 is be a good writer. He isn’t that so he tries to do #2 - which is to piss people off so that they read you.
