Posted by: Exiled_in_VT on November 11, 2009 3:23PM CST BC, did the team do anything for Tyrone Fahie today on Veterans' Day?

Posted by: Brian Christopherson on November 11, 2009 3:28PM CST Good question Exiled. I'll have to ask. I'm sure Suh will get his name up there in years to come, especially if he wins that Lombardi.

Posted by: TheOneAndOnly on November 11, 2009 3:37PM CST Has Fahie even had playing time this year? I completely forgot about him.

Posted by: Exiled_in_VT on November 11, 2009 3:44PM CST Fahie is in the VaTech,Mizzou, and Baylor game stats under player participation. He is not in the season stat sheet.

Posted by: Islander/Husker on November 11, 2009 4:24PM CST Hello, got a message that site is down for maintainence. I am hoping it is now done.

Posted by: Islander/Husker on November 11, 2009 4:41PM CST Hope the Huskers did something to honor Fahie. Here in Grand Island that really made an effort to honor Veterans today. I went to HYVEE to a free breakfast for all Veterans. They really went overbackwards, with a live radio broadcast, a choir singing patriotic songs and staff could not have been more gracious and helpful. Where ever we went today people were paying their respects. Plus, a local car wash was giving free car washes to Veterans, and we took advantage of that. Our largest High School had their annual parade to the Veterans home, with about 2000 students taking part.

Posted by: Tice on November 11, 2009 4:47PM CST You know if they didn't add the disclaimer "Only those candidates with a legitimate chance of winning the Heisman Trophy in the view of ESPN and Nissan will be added to the leaderboard." I'm pretty sure Stephen Colbert would win the Nissan Heisman vote.

Posted by: Brian Christopherson on November 11, 2009 4:56PM CST Saw some comments about Fahie. I did write a story about him a year ago or so. Here's the link: http://www.journalstar.com/sports/football/college/article_f1cd19c5-3926-5eb4-9a16-a9f2175fabac.html

Posted by: youth of NE on November 11, 2009 5:25PM CST I was absolutely disgusted by that other blog. I haven't seen such a huge number of Callahan lovers in my life! Going on and on about all stars and prototypical sizes. Was Johnny Rodgers 6-4 220? Did he just not make plays cause he was small? How many players in our history were lightly recruited but given scholarships and proved that they were good? But should we ignore them now because some "expert" who has to research 100,000 kids out there doesn't give them 4 or 5*? It's a good thing I just got over my illness or that woud have finished me off.

Posted by: Busiekcreek on November 11, 2009 5:28PM CST Islander, I made an earleir post honoring you today. Thanks for serving your country. Let us never forget what those brave men and women have given.

Posted by: Busiekcreek on November 11, 2009 5:33PM CST youth of NE, hope you are feeling better today. 5*s are fine but after Perilloux at LSU and his getting thrown off the team, I'm kinda like rluben, give me a dog with a lot of fight in him. One that is hungry. When Alex Henery made "the kick" I don't remember seeing any 4 or 5* crowns on his head. Just hope we can get some "burners" for offense. Go Big Red Geaux LSU

Posted by: youth of NE on November 11, 2009 5:41PM CST Yeah, I'm feeling ok. Had a 102 fever last couple of days. I agree absolutely on the fight thing. Look at Marlon Lucky. Then look at Joe Ganz. Which had more impact on our team last year?

Posted by: youth of NE on November 11, 2009 5:45PM CST Matt Slauson dodn't have any stars. Didn't stop him from getting drafted by the Jets, did it?

Posted by: Busiekcreek on November 11, 2009 5:52PM CST Well, I gotta go make groceries unless we want to eat "air puddin" and "rainbow stew" as Hag says. Go Big Red Geaux LSU

Posted by: drivebyposter on November 11, 2009 5:53PM CST Lots of individual award possibilties. Team not so much. Oh yes, the sunbelt championship. Kansas needs a breakout game. So does the corn offense. corn favored by 3 sheesh

Posted by: Trashman on November 11, 2009 6:20PM CST DBP How do you assess the game? Corn by 10-14?

Posted by: drivebyposter on November 11, 2009 7:25PM CST trash, not so fast my friend. The jaybirdies may be as bad as the corn. I am nervous about this. really, 10 to 14...but which way?
