Jeff Smith

His draft status can't get much higher! Money talks. I sure wish I was wrong!

Nolan Mast

Even if he is graded around 3rd-4th round, his body type will deter from teams taking him if he has too many touches...AND we will run him into the ground if he returns.

Eric Farris

Take the money while it's green.

Daniel Revas

Comments Ameer has made about academics makes me think he will be back.

Gary Wilson

Nate Zirbel

Because if he is projected to go high in the top 2 rounds I'm sure it will be hard for him to say no

Wm Salyers

ITWAS REPORTED THAT AMEER WOULDN'T RAISE HIS VALUE BY STAYING IN LINCOLN ANOTHER YEAR.

Ameer has kept quiet about the NFL, saying only it would be a "really big jump." http://on.nfl.com/1dab3PV

In my opinion, it would be a foolish move. He is just now beginning to be noticed by the Pro's. He hasn't reached his full potential. Either way, I wish him the best of luck. Money isn't everything.

John E Koller

I think he is enjoying the Big Red ride too much to leave..

Brook Weber

I think he understands that he didn't get nearly the amount of hype that he would get next season if he remains healthy, which means more dollar bills. Look at how Suh turned out.

Sky Wolf

This year, he was probably the quietest 1500 yrd RB around, & barely got noticed! Next year will be a LOT Different I think

Mike Conyers

Hopin'

Susie Reeves Thornton

he wants to get his education taken care of and wants a shot at more records

Gearld Wolff

I think he believes we can win a BIG 10 title next year, and he can make first team All American.

Marty Norris Davis

We need him too much!

Kent Uphoff

bo is staying and he sees Nebraska being good next year.

Brett Klusaw

he won't be over fourth round this year

David French

because if he sticks around plays one more year for Nebraska he is NFL status will go up much higher and he will be taking higher in the 2015 draft 。 if not I believe he'll go around the 3rd or 4th ro

Marlene Mueller

Better chance next year and more money

Derek Beck

Has the potential to increase his stock in 2014

Stephen Johnson

While the money would be attractive, next years team should be better and his rushing results will be even higher and will move up in the ranks of those chosen for the NFL. i.e. more money overall.

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

Bill Greim

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.

Brad Bredenkamp

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.

Robert Lloyd

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.

Brad Bredenkamp

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.

Dick Plock

Needed change for quite a many games. Our offensive & defense coordinators are being out smarted.

Jean McGee

Satt has been wasting Raiola’s passing strength.

I refuse to get my hopes up

Craig S

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.

michael daly

The habits of almost 2 years don't change overnight. That being said, A new , more forceful, high expectation coach, might be able to snap them awake and Go

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.

Sporty361

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.

Randy Weitzenkamp

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.

Robert Lloyd

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.

Joe Hegarty

Won't be favored in any remaining games.

John Lienemann

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.

Lyle Martin

Looking like they won't win again this year

Bill Scheef

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 !

The ANTI Trump

offense is more confusion and chaos instead of concern and control

Roger Moellendorf

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.

Bill Petty

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.
