It gives the student athlete a transition period. Going from high school to college is a big change. Throw in athletics and it really creates some issues. Let them break in easy a semester early.

Leaving HS early is not enriching the life of a person. Let them "grow up and mature" and enjoy your class friends,

Leipold will likely prefer the Husker job over the Badgers for three reasons, and it's quite possible he would keep a few of the existing staff, namely Joseph and Busch.

Bud Chapin

Mickey played at NU when they were in the Big 12!

Wade Williams

NU was in the Big8 when MJ finished his playing career in 90 or 91 and still was when TA finished in 1993. I believe it was 1996 when the Big-12 was formed. I'd still like to see it work out for MJ though. GBR!!!!

I kind of doubt it because I believe Leipold would go to Wisconsin now that they fired Chryst and I don't think Aranda would come. That leaves Gundy, which is possible. Personally, I'd love to see it work out for MJ. GBR!!!!

Jay Reeder

I'll go with no. As the Baylor coach didn't leave for more money laden pastures last year. And the KU coach mayget a full court press from Wisconsin.

The Huskers haven't beaten an FBS team in nearly a full year. Will they break the skid vs. Indiana?

Indiana nearly lost to IU & WKU and the W over Idaho wasn't that impressive. They allowed IU RB Chase Brown 199 yds and WKU RB Kye Robichaux 135 yds. Grant, Ervin, Johnson & Yant will have a big day and help keep the defense off the field.

Brad Bredenkamp

Motivation by Mickey, simpler defense and a week of focus on individual technique will get the Huskers on track...IF there is any on-field leadership from the players.

KK Smith

Hope springs eternal...

Doug Einsel

Trying to remain optimistic.

Visitor

With the shock of losing a head coach and DC behind them, they two weeks of refocus and reset will benefit this talented team and the Huskers will have new inspiration to win this next contest.

Wade Williams

I believe in MJ enough that I do believe he will somehow have found a way to get this team ready to perform up to their capabilities. After the NW gm, SF said the guys needed something to believe in. They have to start with themselves. MJ will have em' believing!

hm dude

Unfortunately, the skers may not win again this year. They not be lookin too good. No offense but, enough of the dumb polls till they get better.

Terry Busch

were not very good

Tucker Mcmann

As of right now, the defense cannot stop anybody, the offense is absolutely anemic, team moral is in the toilet, we are on the road against an improved IU team. Outside of all that, I think we have a great shot.

Danny Baker

The D-line for the Huskers will not be good enough to stop Indiana. The O-line will allow too many sacks.

Barton Jay Burroughs

I have seen no evidence, given the lack of coaching so far, that this team can rise to the challenge.

Steve Slezak

I think the team is lost even though MJ is the coach. It will be a reasonable effort, but ultimately, it will be a loss.

James Traut

“Recruiting beats coaching”… true for skill positions, but not true for OL, DL, and LB positions. Very poor player development at NU and too late now that the season in underway. Wonder what Benhart would be like had he chose Iowa or Wisconsin.

Jim Firnhaber

Line play has been terrible. Need to prove it now or I won't believe.

Alexanderthegreatandterrible

Heck no, defense is so bad we can't trust the team at all.

Dennis Peterson

Haven’t shown that they know how or want to.

Jon Jorgenson

Our team has not tackled in practices for four years. No toughness. A great touch football team.

david mellott

The Huskers have a losing culture. Mickey doesn't stand a chance.

Randy Wolf

This team has been neglected for several years. Frost, it seems, spent more time on personal problems but was happy to take the salary. My gut feeling is he was trying to get fired BEFORE Oct 1st and he did everything he could to do that, including the onside kick.

Arthur Cayette

No reason to start winning now. MJ seems like a great coach but you have a front line that does not want to protect the QB. They look like the basketball team with no will nor want. As Tom Kropp said when he chose Kearney St BB over UNL “they can make a good player bad”

Glenn Suzuki

Team not motivated and not playing with energy and enthusiasm. Need new coaches to motivate them.
