Cdog923 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Mike is a hell of a nice guy, and a great recruiter when given resources. Eichorst doesn't have a soul, so. 2 Quote Link to comment

Landlord Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Mike Riley isn't fired yet so it'd be decent of us to not talk about him like he has been. That said, he has been a great ambassador for Nebraska - the best we've had in any sport since Osborne, I think. He's embraced all of the best things about our program, including the fanbase, with optimism and energy and unbelievable class. Eichorst seemed to take his job very seriously and professionally. Bo and his players didn't seem to like him as a lawyers/numbers guy or someone cold and distant, but it seems that's just because Eichorst likes to run an AD like a business rather than like a father/mentor. He was always polite and considerate with the media and the public, and even if the Riley hire was a mistake, I think he's handled every situation of "should I fire or not fire this coach" extremely well. He's also done a great job with fiscal responsibility, opening up the checkbook in ways previously never seen at Nebraska, and pushing to expand and grow all of the life skills/academic support sort of areas of support for the student athletes. 3 Quote Link to comment
Pedro Guerrero Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Positive about SE: He fired Bo. 2 Quote Link to comment

The reason I wanted him to succeed even though I said "Mike Riley who?" when he was hired. 1 Quote Link to comment
TGHusker Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Just now, Pedro Guerrero said: Positive about SE: He fired Bo. And SE gave Pearlman the confidence to retire. So that a new chancellor would come in wt the balls to let SE go when the time was right and start the program rebuild. (kind of a left handed compliment ) Quote Link to comment
