Goodbye, Coach Yori....

Troy Menke

My concern comes not from the survey itself, but from who was hired to do the survey. Why would you hire a local company, with clear and distinct conflicts of interest, to conduct the survey, instead of using an out of state impartial company? This reeks of a witch hunt.

Danny Baker

Kind of makes me wonder why. I like coach Riley and since he was hired by the AD, I do not want to see the AD get fired. I think this could hurt the football program.

Daniel Revas

After the debacle at his previous School, Ole Miss, which is fighting NCAA problems throughout their Athletic Program, our new President doesn't seen to know what to look for anyway. Is this BECAUSE he blew it at Ole Miss? Will he be determined to find something?

This totally innocent standard operating procedure. "I’ve done this before. And this won’t be the last one I do." says President Bounds.

Enough of the over reaction by the media fueled speculation. Shawn is a GREAT AD and we're lucky to have him and Mike Riley and staff.

Alan Blackburn

The new UNL President just guaging the temperature of his academic departments. This is what I would do when taking the reigns of a new organization.

Jerry Williams

It would seem to be a god idea to get a base line.

Valerie Gilmore

you would think that any, and all big money making businesses take a look at their house to keep it in order. what can we do here to make it better, what we do there to make it better, i think it's just SOP!

Ryan Jensen

Businesses (and the military) do this all the time. New guy in charge shows up, he does a survey/review to figure out what things are like. Not saying something "bad" couldn't come of it, but definitely standard procedure.

Arlie Rauch

It can be a good thing. But it depends on the criteria. What is the goal? Who sets the standards?

I do not care HOW the punting is done. Only that it leads to WINS.

Steve Rentzell

If something is broken, what does it hurt to try something different. Insanity- Doing the same thing and expecting a different result.

Danny Purcell

taking full advantage of college rules

Ron Graf

I like this style of punting. With the roll-out, it keeps the defense honest by keeping them in position in case of runs/throws by the punter.

Anything less than a drop kick just isn't trying. Additionally, NU had a punter who averaged 44 yards a kick and he had to transfer for a player to be named later. Maybe get the rugby guy in and set in place before upending what would have been a solid punting game.

Too much hassle (200 miles away) for an unknown event.

Tom Cullinan

The event is a non-starter compared to the structure of actual plays and the support of young men working to find their place on the team.

Richard Johnson

No interest in 7-on-7.

Dan Larsen

Live in Dayton, Ohio! 800 miles one-way.... but I am a season ticket holder. See you during the season.

Ryan Goecke

If I want to see a carnival or a faire I'll go see one. This change shows fear of being a competitor on the part of Rhule and NU Athletics. It's embarrassing.

Dave Kapke

I live in Colorado

Kent Haynes

I can see both sides. But it is losing a tradition.

Bruce Craig

Losing the best recruiting tool of the spring and losing the money it would bring in is not smart in my opinion.

Robert Lloyd

It's not a game. This was our tradition. Not a good decision on Rhule's part.
