Good call! But honestly, we're a school that retires jerseys before a kid even comes to campus. We're also the school that wants to run kids off based off a cryptic tweet about a girlfriend or rock band. Maybe our poooo DON'T stink after all.

We also used to have the most realistic and reasonable fanbase in the country, but we have become the most delusional in the Big 12.

This is interesting are we the best school in the Big 12 when taking in to consideration FB and MBB combined?
We've never even had one in basketball! We are a decent program with a really good fanbase. It ends there.
And we’ve never had the extreme delusion of Nebraska.
That's not true.
They've been hovering around being at least OK for a while and if Fred even wins an NCAA tourney game there and gets to the tourney consistently at least he's set for as long as he wants to be there.
Would be kind of weird seeing him throw Hoiball on another program but interesting too.
The ISU delusion isn't that high...even outside the Big 12, we're not at Iowa level yet.
What program is worse?!? The one program they were compared to, Northwestern, just won a NCAA Tourney game. Nebraska has only been to SEVEN tournaments in their programs history! That. Is. Dreadful.
I don't know where they sit on all time w/l record, but looking at that as an option, just so you don't go further with this freak out:
NU all time record: 1477-1377, .525
ISU all time record: 1375–1322, .510
So likely not the worst.
Nebraska would be way easier to win at than Northwestern. Just because they have been historically mediocre doesn't mean that it's impossible to get better. I'm sure you expected Chris Beard to have the success he has had at that national power Texas Tech.
I hope fred to nebby goes about like this.
Why would UNL be way easier? Just because NW has been historically mediocre doesn’t mean it’s impossible to get better. They’re improving their facilities, have academics to sell, and better location.
We get you’re a Husker fan and refuse to be objective. There aren’t any P5 jobs in which Nebraska is way easier. That’s why they’re one of the worst P5s of the last 40 years.
Northwestern and Neb have been pretty parallel in basketball. They took the lead by a nose when they won in the NCAA's in 2017.
Tech has been to four Sweet 16's and has had numerous tournament appearances.
If Fred went to Northwestern would you still think Nebraska would be a better potential program?!?
Northwestern has tougher academic requirements so their pool of recruits is smaller. Any dope can get into Nebraska.
