@DanJMasters @TaylorJDahl I see the sense in the messaging, but it’s not a one size fits all solution. For example- most D1 athletes I officiate were big early. Early maturity is huge advantage on multiple fronts. For those behind the curve physically, specialization can be critical for them to play.
English
@husker8769 @TaylorJDahl Understood- I see your example now.
What strategy or messaging would you rather see taken? Doesn’t it make sense to show how it worked for the best of the best?
I think it’s quite different for an avg student in a C/D school compared to a high B/A.

Nebraska high school baseball should be moved to the summer so soccer, golf and track aren’t getting passed on.
Does Nebraska need a HS season AND a Legion season? I don’t believe so.
Coach Schoeneberg@CoachSchoeney
Name a baseball opinion that will have you looking like this.
English
@DanJMasters @TaylorJDahl Absolutely different- I had success in multiple sports in a C/D school, my kids had success specializing in high school in a B/A school. I was just responding to Taylor’s broad conclusions/assumptions on an issue that is quite multifaceted.
English
@DanJMasters @TaylorJDahl Jordan Larson just last week. NSAA even said the message is clear, play multiple sports. Becomes a chicken/egg argument. Of course multiple sports help athleticism, but high levels of athleticism are needed to compete/play in multiple sports in bigger schools.
English
@husker8769 @TaylorJDahl Interesting angle. I’m interested in how/why you associate the NSAA with trotting out elite athletes - What do you mean?
English
@TaylorJDahl What a strange myopic response. I said high school, not youth specialization. The NSAA trots out the elite athletes when promoting the “multiple sports” angle. Most athletes are not elite. One path doesn’t fit all, especially in the larger schools.
English
@husker8769 Why? So they can be burned out at 14? Or burned out after their freshman year at a NAIA school and realize that they playing so much was really not worth it and they transfer to another school to be a regular student?
English
@TaylorJDahl @DanJMasters Specialization is absolutely critical for a substantial amount of high school athletes.
English
@DanJMasters I think track not being as prominent as it once was in this state is what kills me.
I’m a track guy first, but if it’s losing popularity, I get why baseball stays in the spring.
Specialization is infuriating to me. But that’s what some think is best for their kids.

@BarnettMPH @ChrisVailNE Maybe the millions of immigrants can provide some insight?

@ChrisVailNE What exactly is "great" about America right now? I mean we have a lot of things to be thankful for, but what exactly makes us great?

This is how the demons see America... clown show. They have no idea what it means to be GREAT....
Jane Fleming Kleeb🇺🇸We The People@janekleeb
Trump took the $103 million for what was supposed to be an epic American folk festival and tuned it into a clown show because he wanted control over it rather than the Smithsonian...another Trump grift. Look at what we had in the 70s vs today.

Full press by the whole of the US government and zero prof that that the COVID outbreak was from a bioengineered virus released by the Wuhan Virology lab. - just usual innuendo. Hoping this finally puts #lableak to rest pending data. cnn.com/2026/06/23/pol…

Truth. We are now a nation that celebrates this fake macho bs. Gross.

"The UFC event captures something about this moment in our history. After all, it’s vulgar, it’s violent, it’s commercial, it’s grandiose, it’s tacky, and it dishonors a place once thought worthy of care and respect. In other words, it’s Donald Trump." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwark…

North Carolina school threatens to withhold valedictorian's HS diploma after the following extemporaneous comment: Whether it's the millions suffering in Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Afghanistan and so many other countries around the world, or the families being torn apart by (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), these are not distant issues. They are happening right now as I speak. My point is, we're not given a voice to stay silent." share.google/gTr9sDMqG7ogLH…

@NebPubMediaNews Some context for you from someone who has studied & published about political campaigns for more than 30 years. Lake Research is consistently rated as one of the most accurate polls. Although they typically poll for Democrats, they also conduct bipartisan polls.

@RachelHeckert @DrAliSKhan Wait til you see how many “peer reviewed” studies ultimately end up wrong….

@DrAliSKhan How do these things get published in the first place? Whatever happened to peer review? Or is that for sale now too?

It’s probably not unconstitutional but Jackson has been so incompetent it’s a constitutional travesty. The woman cited Calvin and Hobbes as authority, and basically said the words in a statute were just technicality. She’s woefully unqualified, and has no uniform judicial philosophy to speak of.
English
Just to be clear:
Announcing intent to appoint first woman to Supreme Court (Reagan) — OK
Appointing Black man to replace first Black on Court (Bush I) — OK
Announcing intent to replace female justice with female nominee (Trump) — OK
Announcing intent to appoint first Black woman to Court (Biden) — UNCONSTITUTIONAL!!
Clay Travis@ClayTravis
There is a legitimate argument that Ketanji Brown Jackson’s appointment to the Supreme Court — which President Joe Biden specifically said was directly intended to put a black woman on the Supreme Court — was unconstitutional under federal law.

@BarnettMPH @NebraskaMegan If you want to lie to yourself, go ahead
We all know DEI means “anyone is preferred over a white person”
That’s blatant racism
You probably lie to kids telling them they can change their sex too
You do, don’t you???

The Governor continues to cry and act aggrieved while using his political power to pressure our public university system & strip support from students
Been saying this is the whole right wing strategy: Create outrage, claim offense, and then use that as justification to control
Governor Jim Pillen@TeamPillen
Following my post last night, the University of Nebraska at Kearney took down the objectionable content. That is good news. I — and others in Nebraska and around the country — will continue to hold our higher education institutions accountable, keeping them true to the law and the values of the people they serve. The mission of education in America is not the advancement of woke indoctrination — it’s to grow critical learners and thinkers prepared to become the next generation of leaders and business builders. That’s the mission, and we cannot allow Nebraska institutions to be distracted from it.
