Eh, shit is better than a flaming pile of shit, but I'm not sure that's worth celebrating. We did some good things on special teams but we also had plenty of back breaking mistakes too. I'm ready for a fresh look with that unit.
I like him but our punter hasn’t been overly impressive with distance. Kickoff guys boom it deep but I don’t know if he coaches that at all. Kickoff coverage not the best. I’m sure he helps recruit. We have a rugby guy punting and should have let him run a couple of times.
that still goes back to me a long time ago. I returned punts and found it harder than playing wr or db to try to catch and get a return without getting your head knocked off. Standing back there to catch a perfectly turned over spiral for a fair catch isn’t, but catching a knuckler and trying to get return yardage is. That’s why there’s usually only a couple of guys on the team trusted to get back there.
I get it but our cbs were one of the bigger strengths in the team 2 deep. Just reminded we lose McCoy. Sucks. Banks coaches safeties.
Kentucky beat our ass in DB recruiting this year. He’s just one of these rando lifer position guys that belongs somewhere like Analingus U at this stage of his career where he can gobble up table scraps in recruiting at the big high schools in Atlanta after real programs come through and take the top players. Instead he’s doing that here where we’re trying to, in theory, win a damn championship of some kind. He’s a guy that after he retires we’ll start hearing rumblings of him sleeping at his desk or not doing his due diligence in recruiting because he might’ve had to drive an extra hour to go see a guy. It’s a tale as old as time.
Looks like Chop got upgraded. Smart, now he can keep recruiting going for the dead weight on staff with a little more security. Heupel Announces Three Assistant Coach Hires - University of Tennessee Athletics

If I were Nebraska, I wouldn't want to play us either. I'm sure they will be able to find an FCS team that better matches up with them. Definitely puts us in a bind, though.
This has been scheduled for damn near 20 years if I'm not mistaken and then they dodge it a year and a half out. Ridiculous.
