Has Frost been a gigantic disappointment in Nebraska ?
Yes , but it ’ s not all his fault .

I love to see it !

Colin Cowherd took some shots at the Nebraska football program Thursday.
Cowherd broke down how Nebraska fans have delusional expectations and the Cornhuskers are no longer an elite program. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
Not only are they not elite, but he pointed out they’re behind several other teams when it comes to the Big 10.
“Every College Football program in 2020 has a number on how many games they should win.” — @ColinCowherd Which coaches should be on the hot seat this season? pic.twitter.com/x3sEA6LGqJ — Herd w/Colin Cowherd (@TheHerd) July 9, 2020
First off, cease and desist, Mr. Cowherd. Hating Nebraska is my job. I’ve been doing it for years, and I’m the best person in America at it.
When it comes to pulverizing the dreams of the Nebraska football program and Scott Frost, I do it better than anyone.
Nebraska fans: Let me buy you a beer and talk some football. We can be enemies when the game begins. Me: pic.twitter.com/bJgqaXf6Vs — David Hookstead (@dhookstead) November 16, 2019
That’s just a fact, and I’ve been doing it ever since Frost arrived on campus. I love the passionate fans, but I love crushing their dreams even more.
So, with all due respect to Colin Cowherd, it’s a bit late to be showing up at the party I’ve been hosting for more than two years.
Huge thank you to everybody who made my trip to Nebraska an unforgettable experience. The Cornhuskers truly have the best fans in America. I felt at home, and lost count of all the free drinks we were given. If Nebraska fans ever cross paths in Madison, the beers are all on me. pic.twitter.com/4VVj4S4r2J — David Hookstead (@dhookstead) November 17, 2019
Now that the game is over and Wisconsin won, I want to say I am blown away by the hospitality of Nebraska fans. They won’t let me pay for a drink. I was told they’re the nicest fans in the sport, and they didn’t disappoint. The Nebraska Cornhuskers are an all-class fanbase. — David Hookstead (@dhookstead) November 16, 2019
Secondly, Cowherd is of course correct on every single point, and they’re the same points I’ve been making for years.
Has Frost been a gigantic disappointment in Nebraska? Yes, but it’s not all his fault. Cornhuskers fans think they’re still living in the 1990s.
They’re not. The landscape of college football has changed, and Nebraska fans need to learn how to love 8-4 seasons. I wish I was wrong because college football is better when the Cornhuskers are rolling, but those days are long gone.
Remember when Bo Pelini had Nebraska extremely competitive and then they fired him? Yeah, how much do you think they regret that decision?
Hopefully, if we play football in 2020, Wisconsin will get to give Nebraska another whooping! I love to see it!

Once the Big 10 decided to only play conference games during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the first domino fell.
It might not take much more at this point to get the avalanche.

This honestly sucks so much that it’s hard to put into words. It really is. Great non-conference football games are one of the best parts about college football.
Now, that’s more or less over with the B1G already pulling the plug and the PAC-12 expected to follow shortly.

I’ve had enough of the coronavirus pandemic, and that’s putting it lightly. This damn virus has ruined sports, and I’m done with it.
We need to win this war once and for all.

PATEL: Is America Good?

Is America good ?
That ’ s the real question we have been debating these past few weeks .
The answer , of course , is obvious to all but a few true radicals .
Yes , America is good .
That doesn ’ t mean America is perfect , and it doesn ’ t mean we should not strive to make America better , but the criticisms we make should have some grounding in facts , in history and in comparison with the rest of the world .
The most noteworthy thing about the recent protests is how much @ @ @ @ @ @ @ — the reasonable ones , at least — have won .
Many don ’ t seem to realize it , but we are discussing race and racism like never before .
Even for those of us who do not think America is institutionally racist , the current debate has caused a new level of analysis and reflection .
I ’ ve had more people tell me they have changed their views on issues like Confederate names than ever before .
The reality is that a country founded on the principle that “ all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ held to a higher standard .
It ’ s a standard we have not always met .
( RELATED : These Politicians Used To Be Proud Of America , What Changed ? )
The historical context to all this is , of course , important .
We can ’ t judge America ’ s founders by 2020 standards .
The world they inhabited was different , but even back then , some pointed out the hypocrisy of a country with a legal regime governing slavery claiming to believe in the rights of all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to temper that criticism with the knowledge that slavery is not a fundamentally American institution .
It has existed throughout history , all over the world .
It still exists today in some parts of the world .
Left-wing teachers don ’ t include these sorts of facts in their lessons because they don ’ t help their preferred narrative , so many kids aren ’ t even aware of them .
American injustices did not end with the Civil War and abolition .
Think about how a black man who fought for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to return and not be allowed in a restaurant or coffee shop would feel .
The Jim Crow era didn ’ t end that long ago .
And even today , a black person can fight for our country in the Middle East and return to have their local public school , where they have to send their kids , named after a Confederate general .

What’s In Biden’s Big Economic Plan? Where He May Find Conservative Support (And Where He Definitely Won’t)

Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden unveiled a major plank of his economic agenda Thursday , detailing his plan to revive American manufacturing in a speech near his hometown of Scranton , Pennsylvania .
The “ Buy American ” proposal calls for $ 400 billion of federal spending over four years on reshoring manufacturing and services back to the United States , and an additional $ 300 billion over four years on research and development involving artificial intelligence and other emerging technologies .
Biden ’ s “ Buy American ” plan may find sympathy among conservatives as it calls for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ strategy ” that involves rethinking trade practices and making it more difficult for companies to circumvent loopholes .
( RELATED : OPINION : If Trump Wants Tariffs , He Must Avoid Loopholes ) One of President Donald Trump ’ s most important campaign promises was to renegotiate decades of bad trade deals that enriched multinational corporations at the expense of the American working class .
During his first term , Trump shredded the Trans-Pacific Partnership , replaced NAFTA with the USMCA and signed a Phase One trade deal with China .
Biden ’ @ @ @ @ @ @ @ adopts a much tougher position on China .
This includes proposals to reshore critical supply chains in order to reduce dependency on China , and to hold China accountable over its state-sponsored espionage and intellectual property theft .
During his first term , Trump blocked Chinese tech giants like Huawei from accessing American materials , cracked down on the nearly $ 600 billion worth of China ’ s intellectual property theft and threatened to decouple the American and Chinese economies entirely .
As Trump and Biden battle over who ’ s tougher on @ @ @ @ @ @ @ s “ Buy American ” plan offers China hawks in the Republican Party a number of proposals they could support .
With a majority of Americans viewing China unfavorably and Republican lawmakers like Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley taking a “ tough on China ” approach , this aspect of Biden ’ s policy could turn some heads on the other side of the aisle .
Although Biden ’ s plan to revamp trade deals and hold China accountable may sit well with conservatives , other aspects of his “ Buy American ” proposal @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Republican lawmakers have typically supported .
( RELATED : Biden Bashes Trump Base While Admitting He ‘ Probably ’ Can ’ t Reach Them ) One area where Biden is likely to face conservative opposition is his desire to combine the “ Buy American ” plan with his education plan .

Fiscal conservatives @ @ @ @ @ @ @ government spending on education .
For example , the advocacy group Citizens Against Government Waste blames tuition-free college and student loan forgiveness on the rising cost of higher education .
