When it's not football season can we keep the conversation to recruiting news, Documentary Now, and obscure 80s hair bands? ty
It's a crazy time we live in. Coaches being fired, retiring... Waiting for new hires... Nobody has the words to put together a full husking sentence. Even this was a struggle. Also... #GBR #NFM.
As someone who has never partaken into the devil’s lettuce, is smoking out of a bong or a pipe that much superior to a joint or edibles? Why risk paraphernalia? Or does just no one give a fuck?
It’s much more efficient than joints/blunts. It’s tough to get the potency right if you’re making your own edibles (and also way less efficient too) and harder to buy if you’re not near a legal state.
The comments on the facebook journal star poast on the issue are gold. What's wrong? We are back, baby. This is what all the great teams do. gbr
Clemson or Alabama starting running backs aren't getting popped for that shit our police force in lincoln needs to gtfo
Just got back from a week off the grid in Mexico and trying to catch up on shit. So we were 1 strike away from winning the regional. Then lost to UConn 16-1, Erstad resigned, and Maurice got busted by a fucking campus cop. Sounds about right.
Things were going way too well with the Hoiberg hire/roster flip and Mills qualifying. The fuck us was bound to rear its ugly head at some point.
Welp, were fucked. Are there any former Husks that are an assistant coach at a mid major or division 2?
I was wondering the same and found this article: https://journalstar.com/sports/husk...e_6dce0d11-890c-5861-b6c2-63b332cd9145.html#1 Will Bolt, Texas A&M assistant coach: Checks every box. Former Husker player. Former Husker assistant. An assistant at one of the nation's top programs, learning under Rob Childress. Bolt was the Huskers' associate head coach from 2012-14, so he got a taste of what it's like to coach in the Big Ten. Dan Heefner, Dallas Baptist head coach: Has been the team's head coach the past 12 years, and has Dallas Baptist among the top non-Power Five teams in the country. The Patriots have made six straight NCAA Tournament appearances, and just maybe his recruiting ties to Texas could help the Huskers (They sure helped Dave Van Horn). Justin Seely, Texas A&M assistant: Another Childress assistant who played at Nebraska. Seely has been with the Aggies since 2009, focusing on the team's hitters and outfielders while also serving as the team's recruiting coordinator. Rick Heller, Iowa head coach: Heller has pumped life into the Iowa program, averaging 34.6 wins over his first five seasons and advancing to two NCAA Tournaments. He's an Iowa native, so would he leave his home state? Nate Thompson, Arkansas assistant: A rising star in the assistant ranks, he joined Van Horn's staff before the 2018 season. Prior to that, he was part of Missouri State's big run. He served as Nebraska's volunteer coach from 2008-10. Jeff Mercer, Indiana head coach: Led the Hoosiers to a Big Ten regular-season title in his first season with the program. Before that, led Wright State to 77 wins in two seasons and has a knack for getting players ready for the pro level. Jeff Duncan, Kent State head coach: Was named MAC coach of the year in 2016, 2017 and 2018, and has led the Golden Flashes to a pair of 40-win seasons. Kirk Saarloos, TCU assistant coach: Baseball America listed him as one of the top assistant coaches in 2018. The Horned Frogs' pitching has been nails under Saarloos' watch. Since his arrival at TCU in 2012, the Frogs entered 2018 ranked fifth nationally in team ERA. Dan Snider, Louisville assistant coach: Has played a big role in the Cardinals' potent offense, and he has ties to the Big Ten. He was a longtime assistant at Illinois.
In case you guys are interested what our people are hearing on Childress... There has been lots of talk and rumors and speculation about the open head coach position at Nebraska. As soon as Darin Erstad announced he was leaving his alma-mater on Monday, widespread reports surfaced that linked A&M head coach and former Nebraska pitching coach Rob Childress and both of his full-time assistants - former Huskers players Will Bolt and Justin Seely - to the open position as potential candidates. None of the reports went so far as to say that any of the A&M staffers have been in contact with NU about the job but any of the three would appear to be natural fits if AD Bill Moos decides to make a run at them. However, the prize from the Nebraska perspective is Childress. Many Huskers supporters feel that Childress should have gotten the head job over Mike Anderson when then-NU athletic director Bill Byrne was choosing between the new assistants following the departure of Dave Van Horn from Nebraska to Arkansas in 2002. Childress hung around and worked under Anderson for three seasons before leaving to take the A&M job after the 2005 season. The departure of Childress from Lincoln coincided with the steady decline of the Huskers program under Anderson. Nebraska never finished higher than third in the Big 12 under Anderson after Childress left Lincoln and placed ninth or worse in each of Anderson's last three years. Nebraska fired Anderson after the 2011 season. That same year, Childress coached A&M to its first of two College World Series berths under his watch. That didn't sit well with Huskers fans. And since that point, they have had to watch Rob pull in a bunch of top players right out of Lincoln and surrounding parts. It started with Kyle Simonds and Logan Foster and continued with Michael Helman and Nolan Hoffman. And now there's the most recent JUCO additions from the area in RHP Cam Wynne (99 MPH fastball), INF Logan Sartori (28 steals) and C/DH Zane Schmidt (.395; 22 homers). Nebraska fans are tired of losing top talent, which they've heard about for years as the next great potential Huskers players, to Childress and A&M. So from their perspective, Childress is the grand slam hire that they feel could rekindle the magic and get them in better position to make more realistic CWS runs. It's less than an hour drive from Lincoln to Omaha, but to Huskers baseball fans, Omaha might as well be on the other side of the world. I have checked with the closest possible sources on the A&M side of things, and as of Tuesday morning, I posted inside a thread on the subject that it is, "Very doubtful that Rob would leave A&M for Nebraska." What I can tell you as just after noon on Wednesday (and these things can change in a hurry so this is where I sit as of right now) is that Childress wants to be the head coach at Texas A&M. Again, I went as high up the source chain as you can go, and from what I have gathered, Rob wants to be here and not at Nebraska. Case in point, Childress nabbed a commitment from Schmidt - a JUCO slugger out of Hutchinson CC who hit .395 with 22 homers as a freshman in '19 - just two days ago. Schmidt is from Kearney, Nebraska ... less than two hours from Nebraska's campus. If Rob was ready to leave for a return to Middle America, why would he take Schmidt's commitment at A&M? Now, the one thing that could change the status quo and cause Childress to re-think his future when it comes to the open Nebraska job is if he gets the feeling that Texas A&M would like to go in a different direction after 14 seasons. But despite the pressure that he could find himself under on the heels of back-to-back season-ending losses in road regionals combined with a new athletic director now in place in Ross Bjork - the fourth AD in the Childress era - I have heard nothing concrete (besides hearsay and speculation) that would indicate he won't continue as head coach of the Aggies next season. Of course, please know that we are following this situation very closely - from Billy Liucci on down - and if anything changes on the baseball coaching front, we will keep you updated with the most accurate, real-time, non-speculative information that you will find
Mo Washington doesn’t seem like a saint but it sure seems like he’s been getting fucked around every which way he turns
That’s really what I mean. Not the wisest kid, but at the same time, it’s like he’s got a target on his back.
Even if he is back on the team after these two incidents he won't make it to graduation. I'd bet most of my monies on it, unfortunately.
Mo is not real sharp but neither of his infractions move the needle for me in terms of him getting kicked off the team.
