They lack strong leadership. Their schools don’t really care about athletics. Several schools are in debt. It just doesn’t seem like they have anything going for it right now.
Update: if Big12 would get both AZ schools plus Utah and Colorado they would rival SEC and Big10. Large media outlets which is what is working to survive.
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
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.
The coaches can only do so much. It's the players who have to get the job done. It may be time to start looking for a new quarterback. Mahomes is not getting the job done. Just a thought.
The coaches aren't at fault if the players don't catch the ball or drop it. The coaches figure out the plays and it is the team's responsibility to make them. The coaches are doing their jobs.
From what I have read U of O and U of W are looking to bail also. Leaving what?
