Frank Solich to return to Nebraska to be honored at Spring Game

"I'd just really like to encourage Husker fans to help us make it really special," Alberts said on the radio show. "We've been working on this for a while but I think it's time. Really looking forward to Husker Nation honoring Frank and thanking him for everything he's done as a player, as a coach, and also honor him for what he did after he left here. Frank is a College Football Hall of Famer in terms of what he accomplished as a coach. An incredible person. So after, yes, a lot of work, we're going to be really excited to be able to honor Frank Solich at the Spring Game."

I can’t make the game this year, but someone needs to be responsible for bringing the live chickens to sacrifice

I'm super happy for this. Frank represents the University and the state extremely well. If he had been given half the chance we gave Frost Nebraska never would have fallen as much as it has.

Will sacrificing Hawkeyes suffice?

What's with all this Lil' Red HATE, Uenth??!?

How could anybody hate on this cute little guy? ^^^^

We're talkin' about a mascot who's won the NCAA's National Mascot Competition and who has been inducted in The Mascot Hall of Fame with other mascot icons like the Philly Phanatic, The San Diego Chicken, Bucky Badger, and Brutus Buckeye!!!

Hey, if you wanna get rid of Herbie, I'm all-in with you. But Lil' Red is here to stay, baby!!!

Another good move by Alberts.

I'm curious if the secret announcement will be slapping Solich's name somewhere on the new facility, like at least the locker room or something.

 

[ATX_Husker]

I think in the cafeteria there will be a Solich's Sandwich Bar or the ice baths will be known as Frank's Tanks

Be careful using Bar and Frank in the same sentence.

Be careful using Bar and Frank in the same sentence.

Nebraska to honor Solich 20 years after controversial firing | AP News

Solich supporters have long contended that his firing 20 years ago put a curse on the football program and that it only can be broken by Nebraska making things right with him.

Solich acknowledged he’s heard about the “Solich Curse.”

“I will say this: if I had the ability to put on curses, there would be a few more people in trouble,” he said.

Asked if Pederson was one of those people, Solich laughed.

“No,” he said, “I’m not going there.”

Solich coming back breaks the curse....I'm saying it now. Undefeated, National Champions!!!!!.......sometime soon.

Sorry, have NEVER liked Lil Red. I want to take one of my grandmother's hat pins and pop that sucker.

BTW, his cuteness?!?!?! is the problem. Herbie at least looks like he can throw a pancake but Lil Red, has his hat on cock-eyed and just looks like a doufas, in my considered opinion. Seriously, I don't want a "cute" mascot. This is Nebraska Football baby, give me a mascot that looks like he can do some damage on the field

Herbie rocks, no doubt about it!

You're saying he doesn't warm your cockles?

I'd like to see any of these guys bounce on their head.

Didn’t his appearance coincide with the beginning of our suck ?

That would be correct on both counts, Chris.

A) He does NOT warm my cockles (if I had any cockles to warm)

A) He does NOT warm my cockles (if I had any cockles to warm);
and
B) none of the other mascots pictured could bounce on their heads -- not necessary for a mascot, IMHO.

Another reason to dislike the lil bastage!
