So how many fans did we lose in the great Solich and Callahan disaster.

Im honestly curious. Because its not that i believe that Pelini should keep his job, but more how depressing this place is. Ive never read so much negativity and smart a$$ remarks ever.

I dont think this is the darkest time in this programs history, but some of you make it seem like what this program stood for is being hung for all to see. This football program has stood for more than just winning trophys.

This is not to say that things dont need to change, but some of the folks on here really need to think things through.

 
I'd be less negative if everyone and their mom wasn't making new topics for every last thought.

 
Given the revenue for the football program is top ten according to Forbes, I would say not much. And right now, we are looking at losing a hell of a lot more by keeping Pelini than firing him. If he stays, expect the sellout streak to end. Particularly with a schedule that looks like Pelini could well start 2-2.

 
This is worse than 03-04 but not quite in 07 territory yet.

The difference is in 07 we all knew it was coming to an abrupt end the minute Pederson got booted.

There is a lot of mistrust out there right now.

 
I understand that Headley but either its my fault for taking some of the things said on here to far or people recycling the same negative crap over and over again.

 
To answer your title, Im sure it wasnt many. Many of us that complain, complained about Solich's HC ability, complained about BC, and now complain about Bo, yet were all still here apparently. I don't think the situations are the same though. AD ego forced out Solich (not gonna try to hide that I supported the decision thinking Bo would get the nod and keep that staff together). The fans' attitudes that want Bo gone are based strictly how were perceiving Bo's results versus some other agenda.

When you stop hearing complaints after persistent mediocre seasons, that's when you know you've lost the fans. Most on here (including me) upset with Bo feel that way because we do care about the team and the program, and we honestly don't believe he is the guy to make this program better. Having him remain as the coach removes any hope for improvement, so the only hope at this point is a new coach and a new direction, and I am willing to take the risk that the next coach has more than 4 losses his first few seasons for the reward that he can come in and help NU win a conference title again.

I am pretty much in that opinion in that I want the team to win for the school and the players. I support the coaches because they lead that team. I still "root" for the team/players/coaches, but that doesn't mean I can't have an opinion that the coach should be fired if he isn't doing his job well enough.

 
the product we see each year is the same.........there has been little or no improvement. so often the D isn't even set when the ball is snapped, this is the result of some f'd up coaching, Pap and Bo are incompetent.

 
I think the reason there is so much negativity and thE complaints are being repeated over and over is because the people that want Bo out feel strongly about it and, for many of us, it is all we can do. Maybe we feel we are helping shine light on the problem and this is really our only outlet for contributing or interacting with other devout Husker fans.

I live in Colorado, it's not like I have a plethora of people I can vent to about the joke of a coaching staff we have. If my constant pissing and moaning helps influence one person that could affect change, then it's worth it for me. I understand that it may get old reading the complaints but, you are in control of that and you can stop anytime you want.
