Stumpy1 Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Thats what i've been saying. All the great coaches are coaching great teams. Its hard to find someone that could replace Bo right now Short list of unemployed coaches: Urban Meyer Mike Leach Mark Mangino For your short list knapp. Meyer-no way. He freaked about firing Frank after a 9 win season, and look at Bo's win total so far. Leach and Mangino- they both would be chastized by this conservative state after their pasts, and hence knowing these two names would come up I threw in the "nebraska way" because every genious on here wants to get back to the 90's . ANd these two one guy wouldn't fit that "criteria" I see what you did and fixed it for ya. Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Washington was a quality win, and so was Ohio State; and, we beat Penn State, which makes for two wins against highly ranked teams. Only way I can see Bo going is if the team has some complete meltdown and he loses the team completely. I want Bo to stay, I just don't see him leaving. If he does leave, it will be in the unfortunate circumstance that we've completely imploded and nobody wants that to happen. If it does, knock on wood, I think Boise's HC, Chris Peterson, would be the best option for us. Quote Link to comment
miamihrrcns2001 Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 WE NEED T.O. BACK!! I MEAN AFTER ALL HE CAME IN ON THE COATTAILS OF DEVANEY AND INSTANTLY OUR TEAM WAS GREAT AND WON 3 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS! RIGHT, GUISE? ... I mean that is what happened, right? That's how this "building a program" works? Come in, win a national championship right away or you need to be fired? He's rebuilding an elite program. They could go 9-4 or 10-3 this year and return nearly 20 starters for next year. But yeah, national championship or bust!!! ASKDJALK 1 Quote Link to comment

ANd these two guys wouldn't fit that "criteria" I don't think anyone is trying to "go back to the 1990's" but people want a team that competes for conference titles and that isn't happening right now. We are not in the crappy Big 12 north and winning the division isn't a given. I know I personally don't give a rat's ass about "the Nebraska way" because that way is dead. People need to realize that TO didn't have any assistants that are good enough to win at a school like NU and that era is over. I present to you the years 2009 and 2010. And you've given us one year to adjust to the Big Ten, that's fair. Quote Link to comment
Moiraine Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 If it were up to me I'd give him at least three more years, as long as he keeps getting 9-10 wins. He wasn't dealt the easiest hand with the conference switch. Quote Link to comment

People need to realize that TO didn't have any assistants that are good enough to win at a school like NU and that era is over. We are not in the Big XII North, we are in the winnable Legends division. It's a tougher division, but we can compete and win it... but we could also have used a break from the Big Ten Brass on the schedule. Pitting Nebraska against the very best teams the Big Ten can muster in each of its first two years isn't fair. We're the n00bs, so we have to run the gauntlet. This year has been an emotional roller coaster, and many of the players are out of gas right now. Add in injuries and NO WEEKS OFF, and you have... this. Not making excuses. Just saying it is what it is. When 2013 rolls around and our SOS drops in half, we'll likely see very different results. By then Michigan will be a top 10 team and we will still have walk ons starting. It won't matter, NU still wont' win the division. Quote Link to comment
akita Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 We will end up with 9 wins again this year. Why was that an exceptable win total for TO but not BO??? UNBELIEVEABLE!!!!! Tom played less games then Bo did per year. How many 4 loss seasons did Tom have? Heck how many 3 loss seasons did Tom have? I know there were a few. Quote Link to comment

They have lost 4 games, almost lost to division 2 eastern washington, only won by 8 against hawaii and cal who also arent good. Ohio State lost to purde and ohio state didnt have their best players against us. Penn State hasnt played anyone. Michigan State has been our only quality win, imo. Quote Link to comment

I am scared I will start thinking like Big ten people and the roses as the almighty bowl. Quote Link to comment

NU5XChamps Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Seriously, this is the same crowd that was saying we had a "Brutal" schedule in 2011 and 2012 and that we weren't getting any favors from the BI0. Now your saying we didn't play anybody. AMAZING!!!! We played the best that the B10 could put in front of us and we have done pretty good. Quote Link to comment

But it's not hard to adjust to a team that lacks discipline and isn't prepared to play the majority of their schedule. Quote Link to comment

ASKDJALK Its how the team has looked and the fact our defense will be worse next year. He needs to work on his recruiting but if this continues for two or three more years then he needs to be gone.
