Great read.  Amazing how fast Nebraska has accepted mediocrity.

My favorite is this part:

"Rutgers? Why in the world would Nebraska join the Big Ten?"

"Well, to get away from the Big 12. That league was falling apart."

I didn't realize the Big 12 was falling apart until Nubbs up and left. The mental gymnastic to get to that point is amazing.

"So let me get this straight. We're in the Big Ten now. We don't play Oklahoma. We play Rutgers, not Ohio State. There are tickets available for home games. The A.D. says we're stable. The coach makes $3 million and hasn't won a league title or been to a major bowl. There's a national championship playoff and we're ranked 22nd. The Big Eight's gone. Players are getting money. And Kansas State has a bigger game than we do."

Man, I fear for Mr. Shatel.

they left the B12 because they felt like a second fiddle to Texas. now they're like the very last crappiest fiddle in the entire band because their new conference hates them.  :frown:

They actually were second fiddle to Texas

They were third fiddle to Texas and OU. That's what really drove em nuts. And they were in a conference that depended on Texas to stay together, so they jumped ship at the first opportunity. But their football program had problems long before leaving the Big 12. Whatever, it's been so long since they were even relevant that it's hard to really give a crap.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

Their alumni are still pretty annoying, though. Gonna take a while for those to turn over.

to put it into perspective- my cousin's son just graduated from highschool. they live in papillon (basically omaha). he said he's going to creighton because of how much he loves sports and how good of a basketball team they have. that's the kind of stuff they're dealing with up there. i mean i'm old enough (barely) to remember when nebraska football meant something but you might as well be talking about black and white tv's or phones with cords on them when you try to explain that to him.

Nebraska basketball at least appears to be turning things around. Maybe in a few years, they will finally win their first tournament game and kids will start seeing them as a basketball school. It doesn't take nearly as many resources to win at basketball as it does football. Maybe they can be good at sports after all.

I thought they used to be decent at volleyball, but even our very own $25 season tickets kats knocked them out of the tourney 2 years ago.

it really was a good run though. i mean, if you are a seventy year old nebraska fan, you saw a lot of pretty good football.

Yeah, if all your football success occurred before the Internet existed being a Nebraska fan would be pretty fun.

There are going to be some great articles written about how irrelevant Nebraska and Miami are before that game.
