CPJ & Nebraska

[MikeJackets1967]

I was in high school and drove through Amarillo. I clearly remember thinking to myself "this is the worst place in America".

Then you obviously didn't stop for the 72oz Big Texan Challenge. Big mistake.

LOL, you laugh, but I'm an old man now, and I still use Amarillo as an example when I'm talking about an awful place to live. In my head it's like Kandahar, Amarillo, and Pyongyang

I spent a week there one night!

There's nothing like the smell of cattle farms from miles away on a 100 degree day

Riley ain't gone nowhere yet.

I know, unless he loses again.

 

[Oldgoldandwhite]

Hopefully the people running things at GT will allow Todd to make changes

Amen!

You, my friend, have never been to Lima, Ohio.

It would take him 6 + years to bring Nebraska back. People think we're a plug and play offense but we aren't. Quarterback, lineman and a-backs all have to soak at the positions. Now there are rare cases but for the most part we will always be unstoppable on O with RS Juniors at those positions.

I find it interesting it would take 6 years to bring NEB back, but after 4 years here, people felt like CPJ had had enough time to recruit his own guys so........

Amarillo,Texas has that and i'd rather live in Amarillo

My uncle was career Air Force and lived all over (Alaska to San Antonio and NY to Calif). He once told me the 3 years in Lincoln was his worst assignment, and he retired in San Antonio. He was raised in Birmingham and lived off and on in Atlanta. His second choice to live was Alaska but not when you are older.

Plus he's not moving to Nebraska at 60. His wife would probably divorce him

I am not saying this is true for Coach Johnson but I have known some guys who would have considered that as an incentive to take the job there.

LOL!!! I would have taken a job in Afghanistan to get away from my ex-wife.

Lima is a big city......you should try Bucyrus OH.

You should hang out in Lanett,Alabama! A week there and someone will have to take all sharp objects.firearms,medicines and poisons as well as rope away from you

 

[B Lifsey]

Wait now...Lanett, AL is right by my favorite lake and campground.

I worked for a company headquartered in West Point, Georgia, If you lived in Lanett or Valley, you were a linthead.

Just had great cocktail or two and dinner at Alma Cocina in Atl. If you are not in n Atlanta, you are campin out.

UGAG thinks they were elite from 1980-1983

Being truly elite is not the same as being a factory. UGA is a football factory as is LSU, Florida, Tennessee, Clemson, Auburn, and several others. Elite? Well, there is Alabama, maybe USCw, Oklahoma, Ohio State? In the old days, there were true dynasties like Oklahoma and the Seven Dwarves in the 1950s and 60s, Alabama in the 1960s and 70s, USC in the 1960s and 70s. Those days are mercifully long gone. A team might be the media darling for a while and then just as quickly plummet back to earth.

I disagree with those guys lol. Nebraska isn't Nebraska of the 90s and coach really had the benefit of having one of the best backs and WRs in the history of Tech football. Imagine our record if Calvin Booker is the qb instead of Josh Nesbitt. You saw the drop off after they left not to mention the lack of depth at key positions.
