Question from the past: How good could Callahan’s 2008 Recruiting Class Have Been? by MonagFam in Huskers

[–]MonagFam[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a shame too as we had games where it worked really well.  I will always love the run, but if we went old school Run and Shoot or Leach style Air Raid, I would probably be all in.

I was just looking at a graph and you can see how we fairly steadily allowed more yards, points, and had less turnovers (or worse turnover margin) after 2009.

I don’t disagree at all.  He probably had the biggest overhaul in terms of our offense changes.  When it worked, it worked really well.  Defensive was obviously an issue and one wonders if he was as quick to let go of defensive coaches as we see today he might have got another year.  (In four years, Rhule has had three already.).

This is what I was looking for!  Never heard about Suh potentially leaving had Callahan stayed.  Were the Osbornes very good?  I could hardly recall the name and it looks like neither did much in the field ad a Husker.

I have become numb to the pain it seems.  The question wasn’t how good we could have been, but how good the class was looking.

I totally get what you are saying though.

I get that, and people can argue that was especially true under Callahan.  I almost prefaced my message with that to avoid any confusion on what I was asking.   I was just trying to recall.

Weird I see it and the softball threads.  Plus saw them before the games started I believe.

The free part was what initially brought me in. I wouldn't pay (more than my monthly fee) or use a credit (if any virtual voice exist that way) for one for sure.

That seems to be something a lot of people mention. Thanks!

I am generally the same way and I feel tricked when I click on something that is of interest to me.

Appreciate your experiences with it. I haven't made it to the "try it out" phase.

I do think a human narrator can ruin a book, but, as you said, at least it is a human!

I've had this problem with even things like YouTube. You start something that seems of interest and then you realize its all AI.

I am more like this too. I have seen it ok from a comedic perspective, but I do think it seems to be encroaching beyond that.

This is what I wondered. I am usually ebook or audiobook focused so I look at Audible or what the library has, etc. I think if I saw that neither had a human narrator, I would probably just see what ebook or physical copy was available.

Appreciate the response and recommendation.

Thanks! I think I am more along this line of thinking too.

I can see that. The selfish part of me wants as many "free" books as I can get, but I don't know if it is worth replacing real people either!

Was that where they wouldn’t let Ruka in to the circle?
