You can vote with your pocketbook. You can vote with your feet. Or thanks to the design of Huskerboard, you can just plain vote.

Here it is, as simple as I could think to make it.

 
Still in awe that there is a set of people who think 'staff changes' beneath Pelini could be the answer. Anyhow I respect their opinion all the same but it's mind boggling to me.

Had to go with the straight "No".

I used to be in the camp of "Bo's ok but these coordinators gotta go". But then I discovered that they are only here because of Bo. He has the ability and duty to change them but he hasn't. The buck stops with Bo and it is obvious now, HE is the problem with this team. We've all witnessed how stubborn and resistant to change or adjustment he is. The only solution is to get rid of Bo.

 
I would say no, but the people in power to do it don't have the guts to do so. He'll be back next year but it may be too much to ask for to get rid of some of his assistants.

 
I sadly conceded yesterday!

The administration will see a decline in donor funds from this direction as well as "and more importantly I must point out" a public No vote here on HB.

I wouldn't lose my sh#t if Bo were let go as long as they had a plan for getting someone with a proven track record here. Nor would it bother me to see him forced to make coordinator changes and bring in outside help.

 
No.

For years now we've been having the same horrendous results in spite of having different personnel, different players, and different opponents. Only one factor has been constant throughout: Bo. I've been saying for years now that all of Bo's teams have a fundamental psychological flaw, and I believe now, as I always have, that the flaw primarily comes from Pelini himself.

The thinking that he should be given an ultimatum to fire his coordinators or leave with them is just nonsense. If a CEO has to have their job dictated to them, they are derelict in their duty and undeserving of being a CEO.

I just think Pelini makes a better DC than HC. If he seemed to fit that CEO role, staff changes would be my vote. I just don't see it.
 
It all starts at the top. Replacing coordinators isn't going to change the team's psyche. I think we've seen enough here.

 
I would say keep Bo with staff changes but Bo seems to really like his defensive scheme and that's a problem. Also, how many guys want to come here to coach under Bo and have him pull the sh#t on the sidelines that he pulls with his players and current coaches all the time during losses. Doesn't look like a lot of pointing the thumb to me. Nobody with extensive experience and their own schemes is going to want to come here and have Bo's hands all over everything they try to do. Who would want to be a part of the records being set against us lately?
