NU to play KU at the K in 2016. Very cool. Might have to go down to KC for this:

They need to make these kinds of games permanent, I love watching games against old B12 teams.

Crazy that Erstad is one of the candidates for the Dodgers job. Saw him at Moylan ice rink on Sunday.

Really? Wow.

Supposedly Erstad has made the final cut...

Supposedly Erstad has made the final cut...

Just heard that he had a speaking engagement tonight and stated he is not leaving.

[Coyote]

... They said he had an impressive interview... So he must be thinking seriously about it.

[skinzfan23]

Story in the paper this morning stated that he withdrew his name for the Dodgers job.

[Greg S]

Saw that on the ESPN scroll during Gameday as well.

Greg

[Coyote]

Good to hear then!

[Greg S]

Loved the reason for staying that he sent to the Times, "I love the Huskers."

He was going to be one of the 4 finalists.

I feel this was his better reason --- “For what I feel in my gut and my heart (about) what’s right for my family, it’s why I moved back here, to raise our kids in Lincoln, Nebraska,” Erstad said. “I love the sun going down and hearing the kids in the neighborhood, the basketballs bouncing, kids playing tag in the dark. That has a lot of value to me. I grew up with that. I want my kids to grow up with that.”

Either way very cool. Lincoln obviously is a great place for that.

Nice win by Huskers tonight showing who the top dog is!

[Coyote]

Bolt will be a first rounder, he is a beast!

[Greg S]

I'd love to another Husker drafted by the Royals. Hopefully he is still available when they pick. Last night was the first time I've got to watch NU all year. Watched the game on BTN.

No

That was the error in the first inning where they allowed Ill to score in the first inning. I was shooting with a burst so I have more of this. He went after the catch with one hand only and completely botched it. Then it was a comedy as the two guys tried to get the ball.

Remember that the Huskers are playing a road game against Omaha (UNO) on Wednesday Night at Werner Park. Great chance to take in a Husker game if you don't want to drive to Lincoln. See an Omaha game. Or just go to Werner Park for a Wed night.

I'll be there!

[Coyote]

I just may be there also.

[nebugeater]

I am going to most likely too.
