The school says they get more money from adidas, but there's no amount of compensation that can make up for the atrocious alts. Plus the regular jerseys have that awful stretch mark looking crap on them. Their brand is the laughing stock of college football right now. The fan gear sucks too.

The special uniform games have made the Huskers look ridiculous. One of the uniforms you couldn't even read the numbers.

In the eyes of recruits, Adidas is not as "cool" as Nike and UA. Adidas is losing its footing in college football with ND and now possibly UM bailing on them.

Nike is clearly the best option. Former Husker Paul Miles reps for them. No brainer

Just look at the design differences. I know Adidas has recently added some former Nike exec's but until they come up with something exciting they are nothing more than another dying company.

Unless its soccer Adidas is garbage. Kids don't like it its 3rd tier aperal at best. Nebraska deserves better preferably Nike but I'd gladly take underarmor as well

Who even still wears Adidas? Nike and even Under Armour are way ahead of the game. Even Michigan was smart enough to move forward and leave Adidas for Nike.

cheerleaders change their uniforms more often, basketball, baseball, probably bowling. Why not?

Change could result in more future choice on every renewal of contracts. We can be concern that the base uniform will always be there.

They really do not care about this side of the pond. I work with someone from the netherlands and he said as long as they have European soccer they could care less about American Football.

Nike designs are more innovative and just plain look better. I believe Nike resonates more as a brand than Adidas.

Although I do not like the Nike brand as much (maybe because I have been an adidas guy since I could remember) I think their uniform designs seem to be better, colors seems better, and the kids these days wear more Nike than anything.

I really want to see the black cleats return with the black tees under the jersey and black accessories, we look too much like Wisconsin, and we look soft with the red and white...what happened to scarlet and cream??? And stop with the alternate unis.....Oregon has cornered the market on that

Adidas=more money. Nike does not pony up the cash for dear old Nebraska. The main reason is the potential in selling shoes. Our lack of big urban cities and population hurt shoe sales. Addidas is

Adidas NU unis the previous few years - disappointing. Do not understand trend toward smaller, uglier, wrinkly #s difficult to read on TV. Return to large numbers of yesteryear's 1994-97 unis when we were champs. Best ones ever. Agree - stiff-arm Phil Knight's anything goes for a buck empire.

Recruits 'might' look at uniforms but the N on the helmet means more. The Nike at uniforms are ugly. Just look at some of Oregon's overdone uniforms. I like the Adidas fan wear.

Glad to see an acknowledgement that the O wasn't working. This shows some urgency about winning which I appreciate.

Seems pretty obvious that when something is not working very well and you don’t know how to fix it you bring in outside experts for advise. Common practice.

Holgerson has enough experience that he should be able to watch some film and the players in practice and call plays that play to their strengths. I'm betting he is also smart enough to stick with what's working until the other team stops it, and to develop some offensive rhythm.

Anything is better than Satterfield. But I don't know why we didn't go after the US Army's OC who only makes $190k and absolutely knows how to run the ball.

Because Army's OC can call the triple option and run the ball, but he probably doesn't know how to call for a pro-style quarterback. Plus it is very unlikely that Army's OC is going to jump ship right now the way their season is going. Maybe gets a look after the season if Holgerson doesn't stay.

Installing a whole new offense would be very difficult. You might be able to refine a small portion but learning the timing and terminology would be difficult.

I doubt that this late in the season this change will help. I hope it does but i have no faith left. The O-line is just horrible.

Good thing we played buffs early. They have improved throughout the season and have been rated most of year. They are moving forward while we are retreating.

My heart says yes, but my head says no. Are they capable? Absolutely, but we haven't seen enough consistency in any of the 3 phases of the game to warrant any confidence that we can win one of the last three games.

Why don't we recruit the Army's offensive coordinator who really know how to develop a running game? And he only makes $190,000 per year.

They have to fight for it. I will be honest and say it depends on which NU team shows up and that’s why I think it’s going to be tough. They could either win the last 3 games but they could also lose the last 3 games.

Nope...hate to say it but we need a dual threat at QB. It was worth the try, but DR is better off served playing for a program that best suits his drop back talent and at this point in time it's not here. We will drop all three and maybe giving Lincoln Riley two weeks to plan...it's not good !

Sadly, no, I don't think it will happen. There are just too many problems with every aspect of their game. Especially offense and special teams.

I am not hopeful that this team will win another game this year. Just about every phase of the game is sub par. We have clearly regressed as the season has unfolded. Don't forget how much Jeff Simms was hyped last year; how did that turn out. I don't have confidence in the coaching staff.
