I think the transfer of one time with no restrictions is fine. More than that is not healthy for the athlete.

Coaches leave as soon as it suits their best interests. Why should student athletes be held to a different standard?

As long as there are strict rules and penalties against coaches contacting other teams players.

I agree with you but the reality of it all is that they will figure a way around it regardless.

We ask 18 year old students to make major life decisions. Then punish them if they decide they made a poor choice. Should we make adult coaches sit out a year whey they decide to change schools?

I'd like to see it modified to restrict it to players after a red-shirt freshman season. In this case, I'd support it.

What it will lead to is kids not learning how to commit and see it through, a VERY important life skill. In all careers, there are down times and hurdles to get over. They won't. Entitled!

Bo Pelini lit a fire under the defense in his first year as DC. Nebraska would have been awesome the next year. I would have loved to have seen that.

We don't know what would have happened, but it could not have been any worse. We have been foundering since his firing. Scott Frost has a big job in pulling us out of the muck. He'll get it done.

Frank knows Nebraska football inside and out Peterson was an idiot and should’ve kept Frank. Peterson never should have been hired at Nebraska He was a total and complete idiot

Firing Frank got us away from our roots and our identity. O & D schemes change but an identity shouldn't. SF is trying to bring it back now after all these years.

Pederson was one of two arrogant Husker ADs trying to make a name for himself. Moral: Don't fire 9 win coaches.

Callahan dismantled everything that made Nebraska, Nebraska. And almost 20 years later, we are just starting to get back what was lost...

HIRING Solich was the big mistake. He was over-matched. IMO, Tom Osborne shares a lot of blame for forcing Solich on the AD rather than having a national search. In 1997, NU could have had their pick of outstanding HC's. Now look at us.

It was bad... but not as bad as hiring Callahan. I dont know if Solich would have ever gotten over the hump... but Callahan sure as hell wasnt.

Right now, there is only recruiting. Offensive scheme is Scott's brainchild of Oregon speed and Husker power. That's not changing. Relationship is key in being able to bounce ideas off each other.

everything is now in place. The main thing we need now is talent. Don't know if he'll be a general recruiter or just for the offense, but the defensive front 7 on our team aren't exactly award winners

We got the puzzle pieces - now they have to be put together properly. Getting AM's performance back to being worthy of Heisman talk again would be a big first step. OL play is just as important.

Yes, recruiting is important, but we need to get the offense moving. Not 3 years from now, but starting this spring. We need an offensive coordinator NOW.
