Unless nebraska comes up with a comprehensive plan akin to what they did under Osborne, they won't return to prominence.

We all remember when Nebraska was a power. Now it has the 95th ranked recruiting class. Behind schools such as Ohio, Eastern Michigan and Tulsa.

Have the Cornhuskers given up?


Nebraska’s fade started with the elimination of partial qualifiers in the Big 12 and accelerated upon their arrival in the Big Ten. To get in to the conference they agreed to junior membership, which left them with far smaller payouts than other schools.

Like many “blue bloods” they benefited from special rules and privileges. When those privileges were removed, they tanked.

I am wondering if Rhule made a mistake by not taking the PSU HC job.

^^ I did not realize this. Wow. If true, that made their move to the B10 an order of magnitude dumber.

That's a funny way of saying 'institutionalized steroid program.'

I find it a little interesting that tRant seems to hold Osborne in high regard. The guy was a POS

And how underappreciated Bo Pelini was at Nebraska.

Bo Pelini:
2008 - 9-4
2009 - 10-4
2010 - 10-4
2011 - 9-4
2012 - 10-4
2013 - 9-3
2014 - 9-3

So Brian Kelly was underappreciated at LSU??

The junior status was temporary. They’re now a full partner.
