Nebraska Cornhuskers The Official 10000 posts for a Husker Conference Championship

Saw a summary some wrote about Mickey on the husker show tonight.

Took away blackshirts and making them earn them back.
No music at practice anymore. Have to make their own energy.
He'll be feister and more in the kids' faces.
Going to be new starters and grading all positions a lot harder like he was doing with receivers. Trying to not rewards guys that loaf in practice.

The music one jumps out at me, just seems like a good step, take away something they like and helps them pump themselves and force them to get that juice on their own. Also, I don't know about you guys, but seems like it will help with teaching, as music always distracts me, so if coach is telling one guy he's doing something wrong, the rest don't listen and pick up on it.

Got pretty busy with life stuff. Pretty sure the last time I was posting regularly I hadn’t graduated yet. Now I’ve got a real job, wife and a couple kiddos keeping me busy.

I’m sitting in a meeting for my kids swim team now. Fidgeting. Can’t concentrate. Checking twitter. Looking at the brick walls and ready to go run through them. Let’s fucking GO!!!!! Big Red 38 OU 28
 
Well, it was an exciting 6-8 minutes, now I need to find something to do the rest of the afternoon.
 
Just watching game this morning. We were actually better in 1Q then I expected from what I followed on Twitter Sat. We just don't have guys that win battles on the OL and DL. Particularly on OL, just watching OUs OL and the way the can go 1v1 and win, and even do nice handoffs of DL players so guy can get to next level. Where as our OL struggle with a double team and don't get any push.

D just getting gashed, not getting ready quick enough when OU went hurry up. Need to be better prepared for that.

Just really disappointed by O. Need to find an identity. Casey started missing guys once he got hit a few times. Imo running game needs the QB run with the weak OL play, that can cover up some of those issues. Chubba or Logan, but don't think Whips will do that. Need to get the ball out quicker. Find a quicker passing game somehow. Liked the WR screen on first series but misblocked it once OU adjusted.

Just starting second half.
 
Ugh. You gotta practice tackling.

 
Finished second half. I'm somewhat optimistic we can win a few of the next games. A week off and teams that have players closer to OUs second team.

Need D to get off blocks, I'm seriously questioning that they aren't just teaching guys to run into the blocks.

On O, it's just frustrating the inconsistency and it revolves around the OL. Just can't believe we have no backups that are ready to step up and play better than what we see out of a couple of guys. Get the run game going, so play action can work better.
 
Who's going to call defense? I guess if it was his call to not practice tackling. Should have hired a better DL coach.

Chinander had been taught how to disguise defenses by every coach on the opposite sideline in each game he coached as DC for X years, he still coached vanilla flag football defense that fooled no one.
 
Yea, conditioning has not looked good. But I blame technique on position coaches, hard to tell if it's a strength problem. I watched the trench play really closely during OU v NU, and as I said above, just a huge difference on the way the lines played and how much better their lines were coached.
