That blogger is mad that Barry Alvarez wasn't a SEAL. Emulation of Navy SEALS is to honor the SEALS not cast aspersions at them.

Scott did this with the utmost respect for the Seals. The Seals live a standard to which he wants the Huskers to aspire. That's about as good as it gets. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Umm... Great form of flatery. I also think the group that conducted the training has a few special opps guys running the show! My best friend is a die hard Bucky fan, but the Homer.. Wow!

It will make the Huskers tougher, more disciplined, more capable of winning and better conditioned than their opponents. It will add to the win column and they will be able to block & tackle(!)

He's a badger fan. Of course he's going to find any way possible to manipulate this into a bad thing. If Damien is more than cool with it then so should everyone else be. Wiscy fans must be scared.

It shows that men need to do the job 100% of the time and that cutting corners will lead them to inadequate results as a man in life and on the football field. Doesn’t say they are Navy Seals! C’mon!

If someone is offended by the mere fact that a former SEAL thought his brother's can be represented this way, then I suggest that offended person take that sand on the beach, and pack it.

I am a retired veteran. Scott is trying to instill leadership into his team and players, to play as one. This has been lacking in the Husker football program for the past few years.

This is just a Wisconsin pansy crying because his team didn’t think of doing This. That a former Navy Seal didn’t think it a slap in the face by suggesting it, then it isn’t.

As a former Marine who has done a fair share of boat exercises, I didn't take it as disrespectful. They got a few hours of work in. We did that for years. It's good training and builds teamwork.

The Wisconsin blogger's account is totally homer (and he admits it!) but for Squareoffs to do this article is legitimizing a person who is not a legitimate "blogger". He is a tool and admits as much.
