returnnutoglory95 Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 This is a MUST READ. Lee says it exactly like it is. (always has) This is the most spot on column that has been written today about Eichorst and basically how he treated everyone. http://www.omaha.com/huskers/football/barfknecht-silent-shawn-eichorst-caused-friction-was-square-peg-for/article_e7fb6440-9f35-11e7-a76c-8b638c7b6f39.html 2 Quote Link to comment

returnnutoglory95 Posted September 22, 2017 Author Share Posted September 22, 2017 Today and tomorrow you will be reading it all. All the columns and thoughts and tweets that have been saved up because this is what vitriol he has caused from everyone in the 'Know". All of the stuff I have been preaching. It's all coming out now. As it should! Get it all out. Get out the cancer that has taken hold of the Husker Athletic Program for the last 15 Years. Everything that was bred under Harvey. It's time to bury it all and climb back out from the abyss. What a Great Day the is!! There is nothing negative in this firing. This had to happen. And the next guy will be ready, willing and able to take back what is ours and do it the right way once again. There will be no hope for Riley unless he basically wins out. And if he does...more power to him. He will have deserved to keep his job. But we all know that's not happening with his program. RNUTG!!! Quote Link to comment
YellowShirt Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Did not know Eichorst was the highest paid AD in the country. Wow Quote Link to comment

Pedro Guerrero Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 I refuse to read any article written by Barfy. Haven't read his crap for years. So so let me get this straight, the "cancer" that has been in the Athletic Department also includes the man that is your avatar? 5 Quote Link to comment

teachercd Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Good read and honestly...exactly what SE told us he was a few years ago. He is not going out to play golf, or have drinks or have fun or chat. He is scared to talk and meet new people. Quote Link to comment

Made coaches read a lot of books. Didn't meet with them in person much. Boosters didn't like dealing with him. Irrelevant call to Alvarez by Lee. Rabble rabble rabble about other stuff. Has 10 assistant ADs that make a lot of money and we don't trust any of them to hold the interim title. 4 Quote Link to comment
Toe Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Quote Three years into Eichorst’s five years at Nebraska, veteran coaches told me they had been assigned more books to read by their boss than they had one-on-one meetings with him. ...coaches regularly chafed at their lack of interaction with Eichorst, and the paperwork roadblocks his administration put up with little explanation of why. Exactly what Bo said about Eichorst, even though an awful lot of people didn't want to listen to it. Eichorst had no real relationship with the coaches. And when you hear any sort of 'leader' spouting off BS catchphrases from some book like 'energy vampires', you should know you're f'd most f#*kingly. Quote Link to comment

knapplc Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 "Must read" and "Barfknecht" do not belong in the same sentence. Honestly - nothing Barf writes can't be found on half a dozen Husker message boards. 9 Quote Link to comment
Hayseed Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Is Eichorst the true author of Moiraine's story about the angry rat? Quote Link to comment
Toe Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Quote Boosters repeatedly have said that even though Eichorst appeared at games and events, he would position himself in a place where he could slip away or duck out with minimal interaction. “I could never get close to the guy,’’ one multiple-decade booster said. “It was as bad as trying to deal with Steve Pederson.’’ I just brought this up in another thread yesterday. As much as he acted like The Man Behind the Curtain, I couldn't imagine him schmoozing with the boosters of substance. Kinda makes me surprised that he lasted this long. Quote Link to comment
