I guess he doesn't understand the pot/kettle analogy. Both fans are living in the past, but the past of the two programs is very applies/oranges. That was my point. I guess "he" does as the post was responding to "fans" living in the past to set expectations for the present and future. Not the past of the program. Fans. Your interpretation was indeed "apples/oranges". But, then again the intent of your initial post was to be argumentative and sardonic. Alex, what is... "it always works better if you know the meaning of that which you attempt to mock." Perhaps you could be more clear in your posts? Not my fault you can't communicate via the written word. Your schtick seems to be criticizing Beaver fans and how they think. I'm just giving you a taste of your own medicine. Hows it taste?

A great line that translates to so many situations.
I cant follow the insinuations here...Nebraska football, OSU hoops, OSU football, fans expectations. It's so confusing. Did the kid post a Beaver helmet on social media? Are Nebraska fans ready for another 7 win season?
How's it taste? Hahaha

Say all you want about Nebraska fans, but given their program's performance in the last two decades, they still pack 'em in at Memorial Stadium. Case in point! Wouldn't still showing up to watch a bad football team be "accepting mediocrity?" I've seen it said several times around here people are "not setting foot in Gill/Reser" until change happens.

Hmmm...Quite an oxymoron maybe. I look at it like they pack it in because they think they're still great! Either one could be possible.

Nebraska is 4-8 and 5-7 in the last two years, despite playing Charmin-soft OOC schedules and in the weaker division of the Big Ten. Yet they sell out every game (as noted) and love Frost. Sounds to me as if they not only tolerate mediocrity, they embrace it.
At least our men's basketball team has consistently had winning seasons under Tinkle.

"You know if you take out that one season when we really sucked, Tinkles record looks a lot better." Derp, derp, derp.

Back on topic... Kid who was never named chose PSU.(I think anyway)
Back to the "off season" gibberish.

"You know if you take out that one season when we really sucked, Tinkles record looks a lot better." Derp, derp, derp. That's a false equivalency. The majority of Tinkle's seasons were winning seasons. There has only been one losing season. It may be analogous or comparable but in no way is it "just as bad." I disagree.

Tinkle is better than John Jay or Jay John, either way he can't recruit out of his family or his assistant coaches family! this year should tell everyone something. My guess is it won't be GOOD!

No, no, no. It's not that I hate the Blazers or don't believe that Kylor can work himself into a long NBA career with off-season effort, it's that being drafted as a center by the Blazers is a death knell - Martin, Walton, Bowie, Oden. Stay away Kylor, stay far away.
