    Nebraska @ Minnesota

    End zone INT to let Minn take a 3-0 lead into the half. Sims is a talented runner but I'm not unhappy we've turned the page.

    CDS Expectations

    Blue Cain already decommitted. So I'm hoping for "get a big in the portal" instead of retaining Blue in year 1

    Damon Stoudamire

    I'm cautiously optimistic. With greater context around Pacific, it feels like he turned a dire program around. Based on Celtic fan reactions, he's highly regarded and not a courtesy hire. His name recognition and experience in the NBA will appeal to the upper tier talent we need to get back to...

    When does Pastner feel heat

    Let's be really honest. Major college sports are now professional endeavors. If you don't pay, you don't get good athletes. Until we have a whole fund and system in place to pay large amounts of money (we're talking 6 figures), we will not be competitive.

    When does Pastner feel heat

    This is promising to be a frustrating off season. Between a difficult coaching decision and a need to set up a legitimate NIL offering, there's no palatable path forward for an optimistic 23-24 season.

    IF Pastner is fired, who would be a good hire to replace him?

    Right. It feels like the question is more "can we afford not to let CJP go?" We're already cratered, but another year of this would salt the earth so no green shoots can grow, fan-/ attendance-wise

    HC Candidate/Rumors/Info Thread

    Yes, on message boards. ADJB hasn't said anything publicly to confirm that list as the one he was working from.

    Conference Realignment

    Nebraska was a member of AAU when they joined the B1G: https://journalstar.com/news/local/education/article_d9eca939-b681-535d-ad1a-a98d9ef3b01e.html

    Can we stay competitive in the NIL era?

    I'll admit that I asked the original question knowing full well the answer. But I deeply appreciate how the conversation had a lot of folks get around the change curve. I think a lot of us have been postulating that the right coach/ more investment from our rich alums would re-energize the...

    Bowl Season

    I would love to see them revert to an older style less governed by contracts with conference. The UCF - Florida game was well attended and liked because it was local and had some elements of a rivalry. That feels like the only way they will survive.

    Bowl Season

    Anyone watching MSU vs Pitt and have thoughts they want to share about our future coach's CB unit? Note: Pickett is sitting out, so I'm guessing it's much less of a true read on the CBs.

    Can we stay competitive in the NIL era?

    Texas just announced a new deal for their offensive linemen that takes each player to $150k. They have a multi-million dollar fund that will clearly grow from there. No way Alabama or Ohio State falls behind. I'm glad we were able to get the TiVo deal for our players, but I don't see a fund or...

    Todd Gurley?

    On a positive note for the kid, even if he falls out of the first round, UGA took out quite an insurance policy. http://m.espn.go.com/ncf/story?storyId=11888065

    Article GT Swarm Mock Board 10/30

    Eric, thanks so much for your work on this, it's an amazing addition to the site! I have a couple of suggestions, take them or leave them as you see fit: Could you add the player's location? It may add to some gnashing of teeth, but I'm always interested to see where we are recruiting and if...
