I did not want to be negative. Right now we do not know what it will be like next year. I have hopes,

We will see for sure this year and going forward if his offensive philosophy will work with pro style QB's. This is a wait and see thing. I'm willing to give it a chance.

We need a dual threat q-back who can throw or run to get out of the pocket, I do not want to see a 70% passing game.

Absolutely not, it will not work at nebraska because it is a low populated cold weather state and NO ONE can load up on 5 star talent tat NU to compete with the other schools in the high populated warm weather areas.. We need to be unique again in what we do and have the entire state supporting it.

I prefer the run offense, wear 'em down and win in the 4th quarter. A mobile QB that can pass accurately as well as get out of trouble and run.

I am unsure that the way Riley seems to be going with the offense is the right way. All of the top teams in the country last year had a dual threat QB and that is for a reason: It's hard to defend 11 guys than just 10. We'll just have to wait and see what happens.

We didn't run the ball effectively with players that can run in 2016. We will be pass oriented in 2017. If we don't get more proficient at the run we are going to be hurting. I don't care if you run the ball 50% of the time, it all fails if you can't get yardage with the run. 3rd & long in 2017.

Unless you have talent like USC, you need a QB who can run in college football today.

With our offensive lines of recent years a drop back passing QB will be meat for other teams defenses to eat up

Pro style offenses have been solved. Their success relies heavily on a very high level of nationally coveted talent which makes consistency an issue even for teams that have every recruiting advantage. There are other more college friendly schemes that get better results from less talent.

I have had problems with the consistency of play calling. I will say I probably will like the first couple of years better than what is coming... I like a mobile QB who can throw the ball on the move and run the option. I like to see a QB who can run play action and go deep. Speed and power! GBR

Old, slow and predictable. No misdirection. Averages slightly over two plays a minute - one of the slowest in the country. No one is surprise by what we do.

I could change my mind after it seeing it ran by a true passing qb but from the little we saw of it, it looks like big 10 defenses already know how to shut it down.

Osborne tried a passing offense in 1973 to 1979. Did not work in the plaines.

What Osborne and the 70's have to do with it? LOL

NU needs a freshman to have a big time impact. Hopefully this is the one.

I've given up any hope of anyone being an impact player until they prove they can actually perform. Too many "BUSTS", including the team, overall.

Having watched him several times now, he needs to develop physically, and even more importantly, must focus on the mental game. He has too many lapses at the high school level. That will be magnified in the B1G

The only recent freshman I thought would be an impact player was Raiola. Barney was a pleasant surprise.

Why not... at least we can hope during the off-season. We are Nebraskans after all.

Next season would be the season to do it. Pretty good set up schedule wise and we SHOULD have the talent to make it happen.

1. look at MR history. 2. Look at how MR's aggressiveness at improving coaching and roster. 3. the team has been learning how to win and we are positioned for a break through. 4. Dylan Raiola!!!

Yes. In fact, NU will win 11 games next year. But 3 of the wins will be moral victories. Final record: 8 wins, 3 moral victories, 2 losses.

We replaced 3 coordinators and basically lost our d-line. I haven’t seen any evidence that our o-line will be good next year. We also lost most of our running back room. We’re probably not going to be much better next year than this year.

If Coach Ruhl had made more changes after year 1 (OC, special teams) I would be more optimistic for year 3. But after three games, extra practices, and a bowl game (barely) this year, I haven't seen much to make me think things will be that much better next year.
