What it will lead to is kids not learning how to commit and see it through, a VERY important life skill. In all careers, there are down times and hurdles to get over. They won't. Entitled!

Promotes coaches raiding other programs and dropping their current athletes that have not performed as expected.

Nebraska football generates and insane amount of tax dollars for the state of Nebraska, I would think the state would want to help maintain that cash flow.

One must think about the revenues that a husker football games bring into the city of Lincoln. Only makes sense that they would help keep the facilities tip-top. CLaude

I think it's safe t say the the majority of households in Nebraska support the Football program. Spread equally across the state, I can't imagine that the needed/wanted taxes per household would be that much. I could be wrong. I haven't researched it.

Do like other cities do and charge a tax on hotels and car rentals and let the visitors pay the tax to fund the stadium projects

Revenue by athletic dept should pay for it. First of all, I dont approve of the south end zone change, eliminating seating for the common folk.

The football program is always bragging about how much they bring in. Why should any non fan have to support them?
Reply
With ever more dismal seasons I would guess that filling the stadium would be a problem. Nebraska fans are great, but there is only an indefinite time before they lose interest with dismal season results.

Absolutely not. This is NOT what our Founding Fathers had in mind, not that they are not turning in their graves with this socialist mess we've gotten ourselves into. I don't play football, I don't/can't go to the games and so this is taxation without representation.

The collected taxes should be used to invest in the state of Nebraska's college students to reduce tuition and fees, improve rural health care, and/or invest in things like expanding renewable energy sources. Let the boosters and fans pay for the renovations and upgrades.

The University and it's Mega-donors are not in a state of poverty. When the legislature is in attack mode on taxation, let us be prudent.

There is plenty of private money to take care of this. Just let them name a restroom after a large donor.

They sale out every game. They have money. We are taxed to much already. And the price of living is ridiculous.

All of the remaining games are winnable, so I think for sure we can win two of them!

Each game we are getting better and our Defense is just as strong as they were the first game. It is only a matter of time for the Offense to open up and showcase all the young talent on the team. Not to mention every team left has struggles with stopping offenses. Our D will shut down their runs.

C'mon...Northwestern / Purdue / Maryland, Iowa ALL @ home = 7 wins !! Right ? We should beat ALL of them, right ? I like Kool-Aid, but Tony White has got our boys heading in the right direction for a nice change, even though we need a pass rusher they've been solid & I believe will get better.
Reply
The defense will have to carry us, and the young receivers are gonna have to step up big time. Satterfield may have to think long and hard about throwing to run vs running to throw ... we shall see, but ZI think they'll go at least 6-6 maybe 7-5
Reply
Remaining schedule should allow NU to win 3 more games, especially the next 3. NU could even win them all.
Reply
They have a better attitude now. They know they need to work to win and when something does not go their way they do not put their heads down and think back to last year.
Reply
The west is weak and the crossovers look very winnable after seeing Illinois beat Maryland. We will get to 6 and may even be in the hunt in the west
Reply
offense is not coming together. injuries and less than stellar coaching on that side. o line and receivers and qb
Reply
I think they'd be able to get to something like 7-5 if they still had some offensive weapons. But the lack of receivers and backs is going to make it difficult. If they do get to a bowl, it will be due to the defense.
Reply
I think the transfer of one time with no restrictions is fine. More than that is not healthy for the athlete.
ReplyCoaches leave as soon as it suits their best interests. Why should student athletes be held to a different standard?
ReplyAs long as there are strict rules and penalties against coaches contacting other teams players.
ReplyWhy should coaches be able to leave but not players?
ReplyWe ask 18 year old students to make major life decisions. Then punish them if they decide they made a poor choice. Should we make adult coaches sit out a year whey they decide to change schools?
ReplyGotta be equal with the other student athletes
