The DJ missing the Masters story was true but Rahm kicked his arse not Brooks.

Odell is bi.


College bball coach Pat Kennedy once hit his own dog with his car and made student managers bury it so his wife wouldn’t find out.

This coming from an equipment manager….

At Kansas mark Mangeno used to meet the refs pregame butt naked or always getting out of the shower because he wanted them to be uncomfortable and leave

Since our TMB #Nebraska Cornhuskers posters didn't deem this worth sharing like the fine gentlemen at The Platinum Board I felt I had to bring this here and not pollute the Q board thread.

From these obvious truth tellers:

Some people got really butthurt last time I shared info about Frost and his wife. If that was you, please do not read. Leave this thread.

sent to me by a member

Rumors of Frost and his wife being separated are true. She has taken the kids back to Florida apparently. This all stems from incidents at the bar Gate 25. Frost and the coaches gather there frequently (supposedly after every home game, win or lose). One of the coaches has an apartment above the bar. Several women have been seen going in and out with coaches (Frost being one obviously). A friend of mine knows a girl that works at the bar. He asked if these rumors are true. Response was “she smiled, said no comment, and walked away.”


Additional Info from someone close to G25:


Can confirm he was messing around with one of the waitresses for sure. Not going to post her name, but she’s by far the hottest worker there. Everything happens in the Annex.
Also, saw Jon Bruning smoking weed in there while he was battling it as AG. They all eat edibles and rip dab pens frequently.


Even more info:

Tiny crazy story here, a guy I know said nearly the same thing as the Frost's wife info thread, and the source was Bill's wife, he also said there were even more hookers on a coaches trip they had on top of Gate 25.

I also know a guy who is part owner of an Omaha hotel and said Frost has a permanent room up there and lives there now.

Only halfway through the thread and we got some more

"I was out drinking with someone associated with Husker Athletics. Let's just say that they know about the coaches Shenanigans that go on at Gate 25 plus other places like Valentine and don't approve of them. Not the Nebraska Way and definitely not the values that Tom Osborne represented. Just a matter of time before this becomes more mainstream info. They can't keep partying like this and not expect it to become common knowledge. Sounds Like Carl Pelini and Joe Ganz would fit in nicely with The Busch Light Coaches Club. Honestly turned my stomach when he was telling me about the football coaches. I wonder what Bill Busch thinks about all of this as he is a known grinder who won't be outworked. Also explains why Greg Austin has been rumored to be looking around for a different job. If half the staff is acting like overgrown Frat Boys more concerned with chasing tail and partying than actually doing their job then it has to be frustrating for the coaches who take their jobs seriously. I can't see Lubick, Tuoiti, Austin or Harry Potter being heavy partiers."

I probably put these in here already, but I'm not reading back through them, and they all are about Mississippi State.
1.In 1986, after firing head football coach Emory Bellard, State could've hired Steve Spurrier(rumors are he wanted the job), but our good ol boys wanted and hired former MSU QB Rockey Felker instead.
2. Also, in 1986, Roy Williams interviewed and probably would've taken the head basketball job, but while touring camous he saw a Rebel flag hanging in a dorm room window and decided against it.
3. Richard Williams, who was hired after Roy supposedly turned us down, led the 1995-96 Dawgs to the Final Four. He would coach one more year then resign. The rumor he resigned is he supposedly got a Pom Pom girl pregnant.
4. The 1995 football team led by Jackie Sherrill was coming off an 8-4 season with most everyone coming back and was ranked in most preseason polls. The team would finish a disappointing 3-8. The rumor was that both QB Derrick Taite and future 1sr round pick WR Eric Moulds we're both banging Sherrill's daughter which caused friction with Taite not wanting to throw the ball to Moulds.
