Defense looks really good! Aggressive for the first time since Pelini!

Brandon Pierce

Why Not? After all we have the Blackshirts brand, the traditions and storied history that Syracuse could have dreamed of. Not to mention the NIL money waiting to taped into by incoming players.

Ken E

Past performance is an indicator of future performance.

Wade Williams

Why not? The Cuse sucked prior to him so I believe anything that can be accomplished there can certainly be duplicated in Lincoln! I'm ready for next year now! Let's go and GBR!!!!

Tom Hedlund

Positive results plus recruiting skills.

Bruce Neel

I think he is the best hire so far of the new coaches

Johnathon Cress [Liberty HS]

Development, scheme, recruiting.

As stated previously, I also think Nebraska (with all its positives and history and money) could have done better with a much higher profile coordinator.

Doug Einsel

I can't get excited about him. I think we could have done better. Time will tell.

VAHuskerFan

Not getting my hopes up, time will tell.

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.
