Tom Osborne will not fire Bill Callahan and (most of) the coaching staff will get the "one more year" some are talking about.I hope I'm wrong. I'll try to expand on this later.

As rumors swirl around Lincoln like Night of the Twisters, our beloved football program, on the field, could not be any worse or more embarrasing. It turns out that it's gotten so bad, even our biased radio team of Jim Rose and Adrian Fiala cannot mask their disappointment for the sake of the program. While listening to the Texas A&M game's radio broadcast, via the internet, Husker fans heard

The man who refused to let the program gravitate toward mediocrity did simply that . . . in fact gravitate shouldn't be the word perhaps rocket towards mediocrity or screamming to mediocrity would fit better. The Huskers impacted mediocrity like shoemaker levy 9 impacted an Earth size hole in Jupiter's atmosphere last decade, meaning we hit it hard . . . So in turn the

I can't imagine there has ever been a time in the history of Nebraska Football when things have turned around so dramatically, so quickly and significant changes seemed so imminent, if not immediate. It would be hard to get out all of the thoughts I have without spending 2 hours organizing it and putting into a readable format, but the truth is this: we as fans are all in this position together,

They might want to put a security detail outside of athletic department offices this week. They also might think about blocking incoming calls, specifically those from the Chancellor. A season which started with extremely high hopes, is now a game or two away from being beyond salvageable. Most reasonable Husker fans probably could have accepted a hard-fought, close-until-the-end loss to

Well we finally have it . . . former blackshirts speaking out about their beloved program's demise. And let me tell you, this is worth the listen. Their main points include pride and playing for your teammate next to you as well as the players that came before you . . . I couldn't agree more.

In an extremely unconventional move, an overmatched and unpopular defensive coordinator in the Big 12 resigned from his job on Sunday. Sadly, for anyone reading this blog, this individual was not Kevin Cosgrove. Instead, embattled Texas Tech DC Lyle Setencich resigned on Sunday, citing personal reasons. Talk about guts. It takes a real man to step up and take the blame for failing miserably

To describe what has taken place since our visit to winston-salem. The defense barely registered a pulse this past saturday. The defense(no longer will i be referring to them as the blackshirts)did a no show except for one game changing pic six, which to Bo Ruud's credit saved the day. The O played well enough but struggled to push around a D-line that included a 240lb nose tackle . . . yikes!

Well, I choose not to take last weekend's demolition with as much optimism as a couple of the displaced huskers, namely those in MN. But getting past what happened will be easier this year, I think, than it might have been any other year. Let's just say, It could always be worse.I was embarrassed by what happened to the Huskers at home on Saturday, but there are at least three levels of

The Trojans rolled into Huskerland on saturday night and obliterated what was once an ipenetrable fortress of football gods. They trojan horsed us, dominated us, and no not through the air which is the norm around these parts but on the ground . . . the nebraska way.

Every Husker fan has to admit that we had no business winning that game. If you look at every key performance indicator in a game, turnover margin (-1), third down conversions (3 for 15) and the ability to run the football (34 rushes for 115 yards), we should have not only lost, but lost handily. For me, this felt like a loss. Somehow we pulled it out. Thank you, Zack Bowman. But after

Well, before I start, in honor of Storo, I just want to say that I have no formal training in making predictions, anything that happens to be correct is pure talent. First off, I assume everyone caught some of the 25-hours of college football starting last night, props to Rece Davis. Loved the idea. Anyway, here are a few highlights from the little bit of the show that I saw, in no particular

Well, practice has begun and the first kickoff is quickly approaching. Thus, I think it's time to resurrect the blog. I can't think of a better time for a Husker's blog amid the new criminal element, recruiting news, and quarterback faux-controversy. Let's make Solich proud, Displaced Huskers. Also, let's welcome Joe Ganz's newest superior, Sam Keller.

Ok, the University of Minnesota's jones for current and former Nebraska head and assistant coaches has gone too far. Take for example the lead-in to yet another article in the Minneapolis Star-Tribune regarding the Golden Gophers head football coaching search:"Minnesota officials continued their football coaching search by contacting North Dakota State about its head coach, Craig Bohl.

Bo Pelini apparently has not been contacted by Minnesota yet, but said he would be interested.LinkI've always considered U of M my second favorite football team, but over the years its not been much more than a passive interest as they have pretty much sucked, but I would definitely pay more attention if Pelini was coaching them.The time is probably right for Pelini to get a head coaching job.

Well, they finally put that old dog out to pasture, and for me, it was about time.Sounds like the hot replacement candidate is Greg Schiano, and it probably makes the most sense for Miami. He used to be an assistant there, and he's one of the hottest head coaching prospects right now. Miami probably couldn't hope to do any better than Schiano.Did anyone hear Kirk Herbstreit just lay into

UT 22 NU 20Well that has to be about as well as we've played in a big game in a number of years. That might be setting the bar a little low, but you have to start somewhere, and considering that we had that game won I think it signifies the current state of this program. We are more talented, more athletic and better coached than we have been since probably 1999. Incidentally, that was the

It's safe to say that I can't stand anything remotely related to KSU. From their f'n girl colors, to their curriculum of meat sacks/animals and agriculture, I hate everything they stand for. A 55,000 seat stadium that isn't sold out 3 games into a new coach's tenure, to the ridiculous comment made by prince before the louisville game. (In response to the keys of todays games, he responded "we

Some things that stuck out in my mind after taking a few hours to digest this one. Feel free to comment on these or add your own.1. In general, this game played out about how it was supposed to. Our secondary got exposed in some critical situations, their overall team speed was impressive, we didn't get near as many breaks as we needed for the upset, and we lost the game by the spread.2. We

Under 5 hours to kickoff, and....I don't feel much different about this game than I did before the season. Cautiously optimistic is the best way to describe it. Sure, we have a shot, but those top 5 recruiting classes for Pete Carroll over the last 4-5 years, and a team that's been consistently ranked in the top 10 going on 4-5 years has to be worth something, i.e. - they've been here before (

Aside from the fact that he gave USC more motivation with his stupid comment, he now has given the impression to the rest of the country that Nebraska is so high on itself that this game will be a cake walk. The media, particularly ESPN, is just running this thing into the ground. Sportscenter tonight again mentioned the comment and preceded to lecture Nebraska that LA Tech and Nich St. aren't in

It was a pretty good beat down, but I don't know if I'm as loaded off the Kool-Aid as many others appear to be. The offense was impressive, but the defense has some question marks.The offense was as balanced as any of us have probably ever seen. 252 yards rushing and 332 yards passing. 46 rushing plays, 36 passing plays. They were clicking on all cylinders. We shouldn't have a problem

I'm not going to wax philosophical nor try to breakdown this weekend's football game pitting the Nos. 20/22 Nebraska Cornhuskers and the UR/UR Louisiana Tech Bulldogs. Instead I'm just going to say that I am pumped to be going back. I can't wait to see the other displaced huskers in a once familiar setting. I can't wait to not get bounced from Sidetracks and leave on my own terms. I can't wait to

We've all heard so much talk about Kenny Wilson's run in that scrimmage and I talked him up after attending practice a week ago. So what's all the fuss about? I hope this is a sign of things to come, and I don't mean the inability of our defense to tackle. I hope this helps everyone to remove themselves from the heart-string-tugging mood in which TC has put them. When making the pilgrimage to

Welcome to HUSKER FOOTBALL 2006!In just 3 days time, we will all be back in Lincoln, cracking a beer before the bedtime sand is gone from our eyes, wearing scarlet and cream, soaking in the gameday atmosphere which we've all come to know and love. As we make our way from the No Option tailgate, through the sea of red humanity we will hark back to the old glory days when real thoughts of Big 12

As we head into the 2006 season, it will be a sad sight to see a new head football coach on the sidelines for the University of Colorado. For years, Gary Barnett (and Rick Neuheisel (ladies and gentleman)) provided many memorable moments for Husker fans. From blowing games late in the 4th quarter to ripping off headsets to blowing games late in the 4th quarter to demeaning women to blowing

According to a number of sources, former Arizona State QB Sam Keller will join the Huskers. After sitting out 2006, he will have 1 year left of eligibility. This isn't official yet, but it's supposed to be announced on Thursday.This is a very odd situation. As currently as last Friday, some 4 days ago, he was announced as ASU's starting quarterback. Then on Saturday, the ASU head coach said he

Well, I decided to attend the practice tonight that was open to students and decided to post a few observations. Most of the part of practice that we were able to observe was a semi-scrimmage. They ran plays offense vs. defense, but there was no tackling allowed, quarterbacks or otherwise. So, I realize that these observations may be a little distorted because they weren't exactly game-like

(I'm a big AP poll guy. Why should I concern myself with what football secretaries think? That is unless NU is ranked higher in the 'coaches' poll.)So the AP poll came out today with Nebraska two notches higher than the Coaches Poll. This is the first time since 2002 that NU is ranked in the pre-season polls. Four years.None of this means anything, of course, other than that even if NU goes

Apparently the Practice tempo has really picked up this year compared to last year. I want to say this is a positive sign that maybe we will be a quicker better prepared team come this fall. Last year's team took awhile(the Colorado game) to get warmed up. Tight Ends,What is this I hear about tight end being a loaded position? Uhhh I'm calling bullshit, a 3 yard out and fall down on one's ass

Two more players are outta here. First off Leon Jackson is reportedly leaving for good this time. I guess he wasn't happy with the wealth of talent we have in store for this fall. Later Bitch.The other player isn't a Husker thank god, but he is a Nebraskan originally. Allan Everidge, 6 game starter a year ago, and freshmen passing yardage record holder at K-state has decided to leave the team

That's really the only thing I have to say in reaction to Harrison Beck's decision to leave the program. This came completely out of left field. Who could have known? Things must have quickly turned south for a true sophomore to make the life changing decision to leave the program after only 2 days of fall practice. Assuming that things were generally headed in the right direction after his

Harrison Beck failed to show up for practice on Saturday.Apparently he was pissed that they had listed him at #4 on the depth chart. His mother did not know his whereabouts but did have an upsetting conversation with him on Friday. He sent her a text message today saying that he was okay and not to worry about him.This really sucks on every level. Beck is supposed to be the guy who takes over for

I was walking back to Nebraska Hall from the union today and happened across a 30-ft tall Zac Taylor. I was watching highlights from last years games on the new gigantic screen on North Stadium, which they are now testing. I don't want to hype it too much, but it is frickin' ridiculously huge.

This really opens things up for the South. In my mind, Texas and Oklahoma are now in a dead heat, if that. Oklahoma's defense will be good enough to carry through the year, but Paul Thompson just got a huge punch in the gut as he wakes up tomorrow as the quarterback for OU. I now see OU having a similar year to last years. Teams can now sell out to stop Adrian Peterson. Bomar had developed

That's right, I said it.I've always said that it's better to jinx the no-hitter in the third than wait to get everyone's hopes up all the way into the eigth.How huge could this whole Butler AD fiasco be for Nebraska basketball? If we were able to get a somewhat higher profile coach in here, I have to think that enthusiasm would go through the roof. It would be like hiring Callahan all over again,

As the 2006 World Cup comes to an end, I think it deserves at least one serious post. In fact, I think that every sporting event that only occurs in four year increments does. That said, there isn't much to say. Congratulations to Italy. Congratulations also to Zidane for becoming the first person to demonstrate how to lose your head and use your head at the exact same time.A comment for ABC:

From the Journal Star:Culbert a Husker?I love headlines that end in question marks.Frankly, though, Major Culbert's status as a Husker remains unclear. Hence, the question mark. No word today -- yet -- from South Stadium about his future in Lincoln. The incoming recruit -- arrested and charged in May with first-degree burlary and first-degree sexual abuse -- plea-barained Wednesday to lesser

Alright, I suggested it to Sto, but I couldn't wait to see the results. Here is the ranking of states based on their NFL player to total population ratio. NFL player totals were taken off of the site that Storo linked to, and populations were based off of approximate July 2005 populations for each state. Populations were taken in millions rounded to three decimal places, which is probably too

Maybe Paul Hornung was on to something...I recently came across a ranking of states in terms of production of NFL players and found that the State of Nebraska ranks a mediocre t29 with 14 players in the NFL. However, compared to the state's population rank of 38, there is some increase seen as a result of being home to a football powerhouse.The point is to further state the importance of Callahan

Nebraska this year will have two games against top powers (at USC and Texas at home) to prove that they are back as a top-notch program. One, how do you think they will do in those games? And two, will Nebraska this year return to the top of crop in the Big 12 like it's used to?-- Mike Bilesimo, PittsburghI learned my lesson about trying to predict the outcome of games several months in advance

CBS sportsline preseason college football mag, or rag have you, has Brandon Jackson as the projected starter . . . BRANDON JACKSON AT RUNNING BACK!!! Again one more reason to boycott CBS sports as well as Dennis Dodd. Poorly done (if ANY was actually done)research with inaccuracies throughout. It is a disgrace to football fans around the globe. Yellow Journalism at it's best.

Journal Star Blog-Senior free safety Andrew Shanle offered a glimpse of what's going on during Nebraska's summer conditioning program, which is closed to the media."We’re doing a lot of speed drills," he said. "We’ve always done a lot of agility stuff. But we’ve bumped up the speeds that we run. I think Coach (Dave) Kennedy realizes what our potential is this year. If he asks us to do a little

I assume the newspapers in Nebraska are calling the recent signing of the two texas recruits as the texas two step. Anywho we finally got our QB recruit for the '06 and '07 class as well as a defensive back. Both out of TehASS. Is it just me or are we finally able to recruit in the talent rich states? Solich should be taking some notes instead of getting wasted at a hotel bar somewhere in Ohio

I know that this is a blog mainly for the Huskers, but judging from the DMB piece, I thought this would be alright. I think we need to recognize Mexico in the World Cup, being our North American neighbors and all.The referees in the World Cup have been terrible, and in Mexico's game it was not any different. Mexico started the game attacking and having the ball. Rafael Marquez scored the first

The Big 10 announced today that it will launch its own television network, which is scheduled to go on the air in August 2007.This got me thinking. Would it be feasible for the Big 12 to start its own, Big 12 sports network? Not that I'd be rooting for that, I mean, how much money will it start to cost in order to sit down in front of the TV and watch a college sporting event?Anyways, I looked at

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HuskersNo bullshit guys, I was on wikipedia, looking at the Huskers entry and noticed that nobody had submitted an article for the Husker baseball section. So I did a little research and came up with the article which you see for Husker baseball. Tell me if you think it's any good.

Bob Knight once said that the "F" word was the most expressive word in the English language.Check out this post today on Mark Cuban's blog, which is usually a good read.I liked it because it highlighted the stupidity of sports journalists and idiotic interviews that we see on tv, hear on radio and read about in the newspaper every day.

So got another little story for y'all. A Mr. Jason White came strolling into the ole home depot on thursday and i happened to help him load a door into his truck. He said 4 words; yes, thanks, o.k, and alright. I'm impressed with oklahoma's public school products.

Wow. That was pretty good.The first Dave Matthews Band Concert I experienced was one that I will not soon forget. 25,000 or so people and I enjoyed a great show at Saratoga Springs, NY, last night. This is a huge crowd in a relatively small space, and I think I might have been groped no fewer than 50 times, and probably another 200 stepped on my left foot, which I think was drawing blood by the

First of all, I believe thanks are in order to the two other cohorts who came up with the idea for this blog and then the mutual effort it took to make it a reality. I loved this idea the moment I heard of it because now that we are all hundreds of miles from each other, the constant dialogue we had when all together in Lincoln involving various topics but mostly Husker football, hasn't had a

"And on the eighth day, Bob Devaney created displacedhuskers.blogspot.com"This blog is the brainchild of Husker fans as a means to share thoughts on various topics, not the least of which include the greatest program in college football history, the Nebraska Cornhuskers.The founders and contributors of this site were once seperated by nothing but block and mortar in the hallowed halls of Abel 8,
