Sad if true. It wouldn't surprise me based on the way Bo has run the program. If there are coaches and players who feel this way, I wouldn't mind seeing them leave.http://hawkeyenation.com/forum/showthread.php?68071-Pelini-fired/page6
"I wouldn't worry about losing coach Kaz, he most likely isn't coming back. I was seated next to him at Village Inn this morning literally right after it was announced. He was ******, and rightfully so. He was on the phone the entire time. Overheard him talking to recruits, and it wasn't good for Nebraska. Also as he was leaving, he turned back to his wife and in a very loud voice says "We'll be better off.F#@$ this place! It's a s@#t hole anyway. I should have went to the NFL when I had a chance." Just unreal! I was shocked when he said it, and to think I was just about to stand up and tell him thank you for all that he has done for Nebraska. In his defense he was obviously pretty emotional and it's terrible that he heard while out to eat with his family. I also think this is the culture that Bo has created over the past 7 years, the whole us against the world mentality. If this is how this dude really feels, how does he sell Nebraska to recruits?"
I may be giving too much credit to the vocal minority there but I remember reading some buckeye message boards during that time and there was a lot of grumbling. Go figure. Things are about the same everywhere I guess huh? Maybe it reached its peak after the 2005 season and subsided again after the national championship appearances. I know the unrest was building there for a while however. I do remember distinctly how unhappy fans were with JT's conservative play calling and offensive scheme in general. There were a lot of people saying that they would never get over the hump with the offense that was being run.Blessed2bahusker - you're completely wrong about Tressel's seat getting warm prior to the tattoo parlor scandal. 2006 & 2007 - national championship appearances. 2008 - finished 10-3...competitive loss to a 12-1 Texas in a BCS bowl (Texas scored the winning TD in the final 30 seconds). 2009 11-2 Rose Bowl victory over Oregon. 2010 12-1 Fiesta Bowl victory over Arkansas. I seriously doubt his seat was getting warm (at least for his on the field results)
then he went and got a couple guys by the names of terrel pryor and braxton miller and began to spread it out a bit.I may be giving too much credit to the vocal minority there but I remember reading some buckeye message boards during that time and there was a lot of grumbling.

Agree completely. If there are people in the program with that attitude, they are a cancer and need to be removed immediately.Sad if true.

Faux VestThe Sock isn't the one to thank, it's the peeps that's talkin' to The Sock that's keeping you folks informed. The thanks goes to them but The Sock understands that you folks can't really thank them directly so I hopes they reads this and understands where the real credit goes.
Go Big Red.
The Sock does thinks its kinda funny that this turns out to be about The Vest. Maybe that fake Pelini fella can become The Vest.
