I said they were being built like Ohio State. Solid defense, Atheletic QB, focused on the run game. Dumbass.


And BTW if Nebraska is nowhere near Ohio state howcome Nebraska has plucked two of the better recruits from Ohio? Rated ahead of Ohio State last year in recruiting, and both teams are ranked in the pre season top ten.

I'm not saying they are special. What I am saying is they are getting some of the best talent in the country again this time with better coaching. The only knock I had on Bo is I didn't think he would be able to bring in elite talent. He's proven me wrong. There should be no reason with the recruits they have not to be a top ten team.

WildTurkey 06-09-2010 03:27 PM

What have I said that was out of line? I never said Nebraska will be a dynasty. I simply compared the way the team is being built to the way Ohio State was built. Not much of a stretch considering Bo is from OSU.

I don't see anywhere in this thread where I've taken sides - or even APPEARED to take sides. All I've done is state some facts, and share my opinion - sometimes when asked, sometimes when not.

Oh noes, someone dare questioned the achievements of the beloved KU BB program! He must be a Mizzou fan!

This is also the same guy who, after professing his opinion is "unbiased" on the subject of MCBB, proceeds to attempt the tearing down of one of the most prestigeous programs in the history of the sport. All the while, fluffing an MU program that has done nothing of consequence in ANY field of sporting endevor, and out of the other side of his face claiming not to have an emotional affiliation with said program.

It's only my opinion, but I think I'm better than a person under that sort of delusion. Please feel free to change my mind if you think you're capable.

Perpective.

From a guy that never puts his own takes out there, and just sits back and criticizes others, offering nothing.

Interesting concept.

This is comical. Seriously.

You, of all people think you know ANYTHING about me.

How about we ask the 75+ folks I've met in person from this place if your dimestore psychology is anywhere close to accurate?

Better yet, why not show up to the next CP function, so we can meet the "man" who hides behind his keyboard trolling people?

Take the offer. 1st round is on me.

Then you can put me on your couch and try to confirm all the reeruned bullshit you think you "know" about me.

Dear God.

If your profile is correct, and you really are 46 years old and this isn't some sort of "act" to get attention, I'm embarrassed for you.

Take that back. I'm embarrassed for you regardless.

ESPN is reporting

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncaa/news/story?id=5268408

Quote:


All signs are pointing to a Nebraska move to the Big Ten.

A source close to the Nebraska Board of Regents told Orangebloods.com the regents met informally Wednesday and have agreed to move to the Big Ten and that a formal announcement Nebraska is leaving will come Friday -- the deadline set by the Big 12 for Nebraska and Missouri to state whether they intend to leave the conference.

University of Nebraska regent Kent Schroeder told the Lincoln Journal Star earlier Wednesday there was a planned executive conference call this afternoon which he believed would include discussion about possible conference realignment.

An executive call does not involve all board members, just the Executive Committee, which consists of board chair Bob Phares and fellow regents Bob Whitehouse, Howard Hawks and Schroeder.

A source close to the Nebraska program told ESPN's Chris Mortensen that athletic director Tom Osborne informed athletic staff members within the past 24 hours that the Cornhuskers were going to make the move to the Big Ten conference.

An athletic director in the Big 12 told ESPN's Joe Schad that Nebraska has had discussion with the Big Ten and that there was a "good chance" Nebraska would join the Big Ten as early as Friday.

A Nebraska source told ESPN.com's Andy Katz late Tuesday that a decision on whether to commit long-term to the Big 12 or leave for a potential Big Ten invitation could come Friday and a Big 12 executive told the Omaha World-Herald that Nebraska could decide to join the Big Ten as early as Friday. However, the source told Katz the consensus within the athletic department is that Nebraska wouldn't separate itself from the Big 12 without some assurance that a Big Ten invitation would come.

Katz's source said the direction of the school is leaning toward the Big Ten, but there was no indication of when the Big Ten invitation would occur. The Big Ten has set no date for any announcement in the coming weeks, leaving open the possibility that Nebraska could be left in limbo.

NU regent Chuck Hassebrook told The Associated Press on Wednesday morning that he expected conference affiliation to be added to the agenda for Friday's previously scheduled board of regents meeting. Board bylaws allow new business to be added to the agenda until 24 hours before the meeting.

Schroeder, a Kearney, Neb., lawyer who has been on the Nebraska Board of Regents since 1998, also said he expects a presentation from university president Harvey Perlman and Osborne at Friday's scheduled board meeting on whether the school will change conferences or remain in the Big 12.

"I'm expecting them to tell me the plusses and minuses of remaining in the Big 12 or going to the Big Ten," Schroeder said.

But Schroeder, who served as the board's chairman in 2009, says he has no preference for either conference, because in order to do so, he "has to have data presented in a way that would allow him to establish a preference."

Schroeder told the Journal Star he suspects the regents might talk about the issue of conference realignment in closed session during Friday's regents' meeting, he noted that there are no votes that come out of such a session.

"Obviously any vote is going to be made in an open session," he said. "The question that will come today is: Suppose we have this closed session and come out of closed session, is it an item that needs to be advertised on the agenda?"

Schroeder told the Journal Star there have been no previous meetings between regents about the topic of conference realignment.

Osborne said in a radio interview Tuesday night that a decision should come soon.

"Hopefully we'll get things put together in the next few days," Osborne told the statewide Husker Sports Network on Tuesday night without indicating Nebraska's preference. "I don't know exactly what the time frame is [that] we'll be able to put this thing to bed. But I'm getting tired of it, you're probably getting tired of it, and the fans are getting tired of it."

Missouri appears to be falling down the list of priorities for the Big Ten.

An athletic director with knowledge of the Big Ten told Orangebloods.com, "Missouri is getting cold shoulder from Big Ten."
The Big Ten announced late last year it is considering adding at least one school, and possibly more, to add a league championship game in football and broaden the reach of its cable television network. Its decision has created a ripple throughout the power conferences, causing the Pac-10 to mull its own expansion and threatening the survival of the Big 12, which in addition to Missouri and Nebraska could also lose as many as six schools to a 16-team Pac-10.
With the future of the Big 12 up in the air, Texas and Texas A&M boards will be meeting Thursday, according to multiple media reports. The discussion is likely to focus on remaining united on expansion (given Texas A&M's on-again, off-again interest in the SEC) and the Colorado vs. Baylor issue regarding the Pac-10.
Information from ESPN Senior NFL Analyst Chris Mortensen, ESPN's Joe Schad, ESPN.com's David Ubben and The Associated Press was used in this report.

He is the same guy who first broke the Pac-10 expansion story. So it's a pretty solid source.

Chip Brown is with orangebloods.com. He has been saying for a long time that if Nebraska leaves Texas will too.

I think orangebloods.com is part of Yahoo sports.

Well then let's round up what's left of the North and takeover the MWC like SWC leftovers did to us.

True. There are some really nasty people there. They treat fellow MU fans as badly as they treat opposing fans.

And it's format sucks. Active threads don't get bumped to the top.

BUT -- it often has good info.

If the Pac-10 expands to 16, it's going to start an arms race. The SEC and Big 10 will have no choice but to race each other for the best teams (picking the bones of the Big XII, Big East, and ACC).

The Big 10 would pretty much have to expand to 16, and the SEC would as well. The SEC would likely look at Miami and Florida State. Missouri and Clemson would make sense for numbers 15 and 16. The Big 10 would try to land MU.

That is correct... this is now the second time in less than 20 years that Texas has been left holding the bag for a conference. Arkansas jumped and then then SWC twisted in the wind, now it looks like it is happening again.
