We have a lot of talent coming back on the defensive side of the ball and I like our young LB's. I think with an attacking style of D from our DL there will be more TO opportunities. I think Coach Riley is an experienced offensive coach and will play to the strenghts of the talent we have on O.

Ryan Scott Bordenkircher

Cuz I just love neb and I think he can do great thing there

John Ross Clark

Can't imagine Harbaugh resurrecting that train wreck that quickly.

Samuel Browning

Mike Riley, because he's getting a team with a winning record and Harbaugh not.

Steve Sharp

Riley's hitting all right notes so far, inherited a team that under-achieved, and already addressed its worst problem under Pelini: an overly complex defense that couldn't handle power running games. Also,Harbaugh is grossly overrated (Kaeprenick plateaued under Harbaugh, an ex-QB).

Michael Olson

not even going to let that first year Wisconsin coach be an option!

I think Harbaugh has a much better track record.

Based upon the schedule nebraska will face.

On the defense I think you will increased intensity, like 2024. The offense line coaching should have been changed sooner, at least Rhule got someone with experience and proven quality development & execution.

Robert Lloyd

Just not confident in Matt anymore. Why he makes millions of $ and has now had 7 coordinators and it's everybody else's fault and he keeps his job?. I've been a fan since the early 60s and now am more concerned about the program than ever before.

We have talent in the room. They will have the same learning curve that Emmett had. He was an average back at the beginning of last season and look how he blossomed. That said, if a solid back is available, take him of course

Bill Scheef

Nebraska is a 3rd Tier team in the BIG 10 and an after thought nationally and our expectations for recruiting should reflect that. With the powers in the BIG 10 nationally Nebraska's "good old days..." are just. Swept into the dust bin of what once was...Sorry, but...it's the truth as I see it.
