it's times like these that show the true colors of this website
as a faithful nebraska alum, it's amazing to me to see how ksuck fans treat their former conference brother.
riley is a hell of a coach and if that shitstain of an AD of yours would have the balls to schedule us, you'd find out really quick why we hired him.

GBR.

Amazing.

I wonder if Bo will release his cats in their football complex to roam their properties as feral agents of revenge for their one time master.

Are we poaching NU recruits now? Doubt many stay committed.

This is amazing, we need to keep hitting the gas, we already got ku by the balls, and now nubbs is getting further into the event horizon and looking more and more like they won't be able to break out it. If only the SEC east wasn't so sucky and mizzou was down we'd control the whole region easily.

Did you know; Mike Riley went 3-8 (0-8) his first season at Oregon State, which coincidentally was the last year Nebraska won a national title. The next year he went 5-6 (2-6) and parlayed that success into a job as the HC of the San Diego Chargers. Fortunately for Mike, he was able to land back on his feet at OSU after going 14-34 in the NFL and he proceeded to turn them into a PAC 10/12 power with two 2nd place (tied) finishes and three 3rd place finishes. The pinnacle for Mike was in 2008 when the Beavers finished 9-4 (7-2) and won the illustrious Sun Bowl, finishing at #18/19 in the country.

The other good thing for Nebraska is that Mike is only 61 years old.

4-7 and 2-5 the last two season in the Pac-12.

His teams were ranked at times, but have never finished a year with less than 4 losses. My god.

Remember when we had to defend the Prince hire because we're KSU fans and dont' have a choice? Imagine that scenario...except its not off the heels of Tom Osbourne retiring...

So, if I remember the story right, when Riley was first hired at Oregon State, he got in touch with Bill about how he turned K-State around. Bill supposedly shared a lot with him. Riley was never able to duplicate Bill's highs but he did make respectable a program that was nearly as historically bad as K-State. So there's that.

Who they going to get? They're Nebraska, for christ sakes.
