Delusional Nebraska AD

Its a lot easier to recruit to UCF than it is to Nebraska (15-20 years ago that comment would have gotten me committed).

If Frost can do it, this AD will look like a genius. If he can't, the fans will turn on both of these guys quick. And that's why this comment is so stupid. Don't add fuel to a fire that you're going to have an extremely difficult time controlling.

Just throwing a little red meat to the Husker faithful. That's the kind of crap they want to hear, and he delivered. Delusional is as delusional does.

I'm sure Urban's thought is more along the lines of, "I'm sorry, Nebraska? Who is that?"

 

[HawkGold]

I would rather have that kind of delusion than Barta's delusions.

I think the assumption that Urban and Harbaugh are running scared is laughable. Why say something like that? Fan base is already all in. No need to rally it with hyperbole. He just created more motivation for opponents. Idiotic.

They need to focus on worrying Minnesota, Northwestern, and Iowa (all L's last year) first. Then Wisconsin. And THEN those 2.

Nebraska hasn't finished in the top 15 since 2001, and that was before they joined the BIG. But sure, Ohio State and Michigan are 'running scared'.
Also, what kind of AD says 'shafted' in a press conference?

 

[Hawkfnntn]

Well there isn't much else to talk about now so at least someone is stirring the pot. This is his way of just showing he's all in. It's Frost or bust for them. Talk is cheap especially this time of year. But we know the long memories of fan bases and they won't hear the end of this if they get off to a rough start...

 

[Fryowa]

The higher the pedestal they put themselves on, the harder they’re going to hit the dirt when they fall.

I think this is great. Anything that makes the husker fans look like idiots (which doesn’t take much) is good by me.

 

[Fryowa]

Some derp responses over on huskerboard:

"Love that guy!"

"Love the enthusiasm."

"Well, Meyer is scared of getting tired again and Jim is realizing that Andrew Luck isn't on his team..."

"I love Moos setting the tone, calling them out. Now we have to back it up. You know we will."

"They can laugh all they want. We're coming for them."

Even the Harbaugh reference is delusional. Michigan is no longer a factor. Nebraska should be worrying about Dantonio, Chyrst and Ferentz.

That's the kind of thing a drunken tailgater says, not an AD and representative of a B1G university.

BTW, can't wait until BEATHARDTEAMS jumps into this thread. Gonna get good...

 

[Fryowa]

@74Hunter, where are you?

That's the kind of thing a drunken tailgater says, not an AD and representative of a B1G university.

That's debatable.

 

[Fryowa]

That's debatable.

Even Farta isn't stupid enough to say something like that.

This seems like a Jamie Pollard type comment.

Probably one of the dumbest things an AD could say ... perfect bulletin board material for Michigan (Fuskers play there on 22 Sep) and Ohio State (also a road game on 3 November). Chances are they will be no better than 2-4 in the B1G after the OSU beatdown.

 

[Steelhawks2008]

I'm sure Urban is scared...that he may have to actually use his punter in a Nebraska game for the first time in 6 years.

The last time Ohio State punted against Nebraska: Moneyball was nominated for an Academy Award. "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen was #1
