I think when Nebraska plays at KU, KU is going to be favored by a TD.

I live in Western Nebraska, where ALL there is to do is follow NU football. They were explaining to me how the whole Callahan thing worked out. Apparently Callahan brought in his own DC and that is the most of the problem. I'm sure Callahan recruits differently also.
Here is what they told me. I have no idea how true it is, its just what they told me. They said that the blackshirt deal was that the best players who were leaders on defense got to wear black shirts in practice. That made it a huge honor, and made the young kids work very very hard to get the honor.
Well, in comes Callahan and his DC. The DC just gave everybody on the defense a black shirt. Completely eliminating the honor and forcing the kids to work for it.
I don't know how true that is, but if that is the case, the blackshirts just need to go away and try something else. If this is true, this is a huge dumbass mistake.
