We have a stud QB and big name Defensive coordinator. Think 2003 but with a better offense. That and someone had to vote over here.

At this point it would require a miracle. Too many pieces of the puzzle missing.

Nebraska needs a unique offense and a tough defense. Not a vanilla prostyle offense.

Riley has yet to win anything of value as a head coach in American football. I would be surprised if his regular season record at Nebraska after 2018 is 29-19 or better.

I really think the current coach Riley is too comfortable with losing. He is a great person, and is knowledgeable, but a winner wins - look at what Harbaugh has done at Michigan in the same mount of time. We will see.

Because we get out-recruited year after year. NU is just another team these days. The sellout record is all that's left of a once great program. That will end soon as well.

The good news is Neb always has the schedule to win a national championship. But they must stop doing the same things in terms of recruiting, facilities, and coaching expecting different results. I love their recruiting now but there are many facits to success.

I feel we are headed in the right direction, but we will need 2-3 years to get there. I expect only 7-9 wins this coming season.

we might compete in some years, and fall off in other years. to me elite means year in and year out, and that won't ever happen. fan base and admin won't allow for a 25 year tenure in coaching any more....

It's a process. We are on our way in the right direction with Riley and Co. at the helm. It all starts with the return on Blackshirt-caliber defense.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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