When Riley was let go and we hired Frost from UCF, there was a ton of talk about how there was a losing culture in the program. In fact, fans and media took is so far to say that it was going to take a few years to get rid of the “losing Riley culture”Continue reading “What the new HC will need to change immediately”

SSO’s Top Candidates
Just a quick Friday read where I put into tiers what I would feel about the most talked about candidates for the HC job at Nebraska. Ecstatic about it: Matt Rhule – I think things are trending this way from media members and former guys I talk to. The longer it drags on the lessContinue reading “SSO’s Top Candidates”
Priorities for the coaching search
There’s been some dialogue on Twitter in regard to what people want in the new head coach and how it could possibly mirror what Trev Alberts is looking for. I dive into a little bit of what I think Nebraska needs to get back to where everyone wants us to be. 1 – Head CoachingContinue reading “Priorities for the coaching search”
Nebraska and NIL
First, my apologies on the absence. It got difficult to continue to write things when people you had relationships with were in a bit of flux and turmoil. Frankly anything I wrote would have been a guess anyway as I was just assuming how Busch would change the defense or how Whipple would do thingsContinue reading “Nebraska and NIL”
Friday Toilet Readings 9/30
It’s been a rough month for Nebraska, I took a bye with the team and we are back. Next week i’ll recap the Indiana game, do an Urban Meyer post since that was a hot topic the last couple weeks, and then a preview for Rutgers. Let’s get into it… Husker Quick Thoughts: -Really interestedContinue reading “Friday Toilet Readings 9/30”
Oklahoma Full Game Recap 2022
While the Georgia Southern game was a let down, this Oklahoma game seemed to be right up there as well. Everyone knew the Sooners had more firepower than the Huskers, but Trev Alberts had just fired Scott Frost, and some people thought this would bring a renewed energy to the team: Someone tag Jim onContinue reading “Oklahoma Full Game Recap 2022”
My reaction to the Chinander firing
Well, down goes another UCF connection, as we learned on Sunday that Interim HC Mickey Joseph fired Nebraska and Scott Frost’s DC. First, let me go a bit “ugh” with this. Part of me just wonders what on earth we are going to accomplish doing this. As Alberts said, we fired Frost for the kidsContinue reading “My reaction to the Chinander firing”
Friday Toilet Readings 9/16
Sticking with the same format… though my Husker thoughts are on the Alberts post (remember we had two today!) Gambling Picks: We finished up 2 units last week, bringing us back to the positive and up 1 unit for the year. Here’s what we like this week: Cal 2 units (+11) Tulane Kansas State overContinue reading “Friday Toilet Readings 9/16”
My thoughts on the dismissal of Frost
Before we get into it, don’t forget we had two posts today! Our Friday toilet reading: https://herbieshangout.com/2022/09/16/friday-toilet-readings-9-16/ After the game this past Saturday, there was something weird in the air. The October 1st date was well known by everyone, but something was wrong. We had just lost to a team we paid 1.4 million dollarsContinue reading “My thoughts on the dismissal of Frost”
Oklahoma Preview 2022
In the most condescending first sentence ever, the cupcakes are now out of the way for us and on to Oklahoma and our conference schedule. While the Sooners have played no one of importance (UTEP and Kent State), they are 2-0 with convincing wins in both contests. Oklahoma currently has a top 10 defense inContinue reading “Oklahoma Preview 2022”
