This pretty much needs to be put in place Monday morning. If I remember right, Pete, weren't you supposed to have at least a week's notice?

I say we have some sort of "WATER IS CALM" variation on it.

Ya, there is a bit more to it, but you have like a 2 week window to call it off...but you have to schedule it more than two weeks in advance.

I should note that I am not in favor of capping OB until we secure the final approval/plans of the West side expansion....let's use the old powertards for the one thing they are good for.

this really seems like something that Nebraska fans would do.

this isn't Bill Callahan folks. even if it's his time, a banner is counter-productive.

I wish he was Bill Callahan.

"Bill - Thx for everything. Waters are calm. Time to move on. TIA goEMAW.com"

or if you have to pay by the letter:

"OB: GTFO. TIA goEMAW.com"

Did you notice his recruiting? If LHC Bill Snyder recruits as well as Art Bryles, we'll be fine, but that ain't going to happen. Jimmy's and Joe's...that what VK used to say.

Yeah, top 10 recruiting classes with stupid amounts of 4* studs would be tough to take.

My preference for Bill Callahan over LHC Bill Snyder and the banner are separate issues.

Let's start with the banner and go from there. I'm clear on your feelings on Callahan.

Right, but with a big check from BSAC, they can make it happen I'm sure.

I don't expect that the threat of a banner will accomplish nearly what it did in the RP scenario, but it'd be nice to at least plant the seed.

"Gets people talking" is like spending money on "raising awareness" for cancer. Waste of money.

YES!!! A BANNER!!! WE'RE TALKING!!!

If only we could "Get people talking" we could change this team with a "bold statement"

So, at the minimum, it shows serious dissatisfaction with the current group of coaches. Now, let's hear why you're so against the idea. Other than it doesn't do anything to promote people getting cancer.

Outside of my cancer love? Man. Hard to think of a good reason. It's like a political bumper sticker. No one will change their minds and people will end up rallying around the coaches. It will backfire. Have you EVER changed your mind about ANYTHING because of a banner or bumper sticker?
