Because He is excited to be here, He Knows the Challenges and expectations but doesn't shy away from it, He Kicked ass at Tulane,,,, if you can kick ass there, Nebraska should be even better with all the resources and support. I anticipate he will do great things.,

He knows and understands Nebraska. He talked to Dr.Tom Osborne, absolutely loves Rhule and his staff. He truly believes in the Huskers.

I think he equal to Trev Alberts. Unlike previous ADs, like Alberts, he's a 'local' guy.

Hard to really know for sure at this point in time. Let's see how things are going a year or two from now.

He did an awesome job bringing Tulane back to winning ways by hiring Coach Fritz!! He will fit in at Nebraska very nicely!!

If he is committed yes, but these 'elites' are a problem for decent society. They sell us down the river every time it seems. Trev owed us more explanation than we got. May A&M lose every game.

Maybe he can pull the knife out of our backs that Trev stuck in? He has forever ruined his Nebraska legacy by bailing on us! He was looking to move up probably before he took the AD job. So yes I'm excited.

Nebraska is far behind the 8 ball here. If it is measured i anticipate this will help retain more attendance in to the second half. especially if the game is not competative.

First OFF, I love BEER. I know beer was in stadium pre covid, when thermos, etc were allowed. Often folks showed up drunk. BUT it was not a big problem (student section, etc.) But alcohol has gotten me into trouble and expect it to do the at games. Boo - wait til after game.

I'm worried college games will resemble NFL games, with belligerent, vulgar fans everywhere you turn. College games need to remain a family-friendly atmosphere, where parents shouldn't be hesitant to take children.

I"m not looking forward to it. I already have people sitting around me that either come snockered or bring their little bottles of booze and bother us or even opposing fans by making smart remarks to them. It will not make things better. Dennis

Booze seems to make some people speak before they think. I would guess they will have to increase their security guards and purchase more zip tie cuffs.

No matter how bad it looks, Dannen has to do what's necessary to keep the athletic department in the black financially. That's the bottom line. He can't allow millions in revenue to be lost just to save face.

Yes, I'm OK with it. It was actually Tennessee that would not agree to the home and away series being moved into the future. Nebraska, with the stadium renovation looming, cannot afford to give up the revenue of a home game. It's dollars and cents.

Live in Nashville and have been waiting for this game for years. TN canceled the first one for the VTech game in Bristol. We need to be playing more elite teams outside the big10. That was what the expanded playoffs were for, more best on best games. Now we look like the typical SEC team, weak.

Stadium Reno is a horrible excuse. It is cowardice....

It's not cowardice. Dannen only recently was given the numbers on when and how much the South Stadium renovation would cost. He made this move to add an 8th home game to keep the athletic dept from losing millions of $$.

It definitely seems very cowardly, very disappointed.

I wouldn't use the word cowardly but it's a terrible decision for fans. I believe most fans would forego two guaranteed home wins for the chance to play Tennessee at home and on the road. It's a weak move on the football program's part

Not all fans live in Big 10 country, and this was the one game on a future schedule that was within driving distance for me. Not to mention the Smoky Mountains would've been a great travel destination for our fans. The "stadium remodel" excuse seems like a cop-out.
