Laughing That's good stuff. Still remember how his account got 'hacked' after he completely melted down.

Sluggo was a great guy. Whatever happened to him?

Can't remember his name, but he used to post all of the interesting stats and stories behind them. He retired from the board and people were very disappointed. He was an older gentleman I believe.

His name is Rich and I believe he went to work for the schools in Omaha. Kind of remember he was an attorney.

About 10 years ago or so, there was a poster called "Yoda" who would occasionally give out encrypted inside info before it happened and he was right every time.

Yoda, Sam-I-Am, and LouisiannaHusker were right 99% of the time. the 1% was just to keep you on your toes :) I still have LH's email but haven't used it in years. Sam-I-Am quit as someone revealed his true identity and that put an end to that. Good times, good times.

There have been a few that were spooked away by the Pelini/Jamrog hit squad. Some didn't like getting threatening phone calls after the information police did their "board research". Sam-I-Am no longer has a connection to the program. His got fired.

Also wasn't there a poster by the name of tim_may?

He had a lot of good info but I feel like that poster was short lived.

Bill Busch was his connection right?

Yoda is the GOAT. SIA was wrong a lot and LH is still full of ****. How the heck you lump the 3 together is beyond me, unless you're trolling.

SIA got exactly what he deserved.

IIRC, he got banned on accident. Ismt that correct @rrthusker? Matya and I reached out to him a few times to try to get him back but it never happened. I have a feeling he's posting, under a different name.

That is correct and yes I believe he posts here quite a bit under another name.

I thought Barney was Sam's connection.:confused: Pelini had Jamrog using university employees to monitor message boards (tracking posts) then tried to track down and intimidate people revealing inside info. A couple of posters on the preceding missing list know more about that than I do although Jamrog supposedly was trying to find me. Apparently Jamrog shook down the whole ancillary staff from water boys to docs because of an educated guess I posted about an injury to a key player which seemed obvious to me by a Watson interview and watching the guy play. They lied about the injury all season long and all it did was make the kid look bad. The Pelinis allegedly physically accosted more than one guy. .

Damn, now I feel so unimportant. No hits or goon squad Pelini boys came after me. Closest I came was seeing Carl out trolling for ****** with Joe Ganz at the bar.:(

Think Barney was his Bo connection. Busch was his Cally connection.

I remember reading back then and some had questioned if this poster was connected to Pelini's staff in some fashion?

Rojo Grande was the guy I was thinking of, but I didn't think he had passed away. I thought he just sort of got tired of the bickering and retired. He wrote some great posts on history, tradition, and statistical analysis from what I remember.

I am a law school classmate of Sluggo and our kids played together when we still lived in Lincoln, early 90s. Can vouch for him and his wife being great people. He left the board when he started a new career and was kinda tired of all the sniping. I grew up two houses from Sam-I-Am. We were, and I'd like to think still are, buddies. His source was Barney. They were HS classmates. I'm quite hurt that no one mentioned the 4+ years I went without posting (this is where I'd put the smiling face if I knew how to do it).

Sam-I-Am, LouisianaHusker, Beaver (I thought I saw him post recently, not 100% sure tho) Bigred402, Jaw (met him at the KSU game in 2010, cool guy) and yes, HuskerTimOmaha. Not sure if poster above was serious about being him but HTO was a pain in the butt but he was at least intelligent in his arguments. Him and I had some battles back in the day about Bo & Co's recruiting, wonder if he still feels the same about them Smokin Sad to hear we've had a few posters pass away; the names sound familiar but don't remember them too well.

It's ok, when you fly under the radar as myself, you are in perfect position to take over the world.

I love this story. This is a great example of why posters should be cautious in posting because nobody truly knows who you really are and who you really know. Far too often posters are accused incorrectly by others of not knowing what they are talking about.
