I was just coming to post this.

So no need to speculate whether Riley will be fired before the end of the season: the answer is no.

Who could have predicted this?

Well he basically said Riley is gone without saying Riley is gone.

exhale!

Nobody. This is completely out of left field.

Well he basically said Riley is gone without saying Riley is gone.

You're not wrong.  "Mike Riley deserves to finish the 2017 season. That's how I operate."

Also, although it may not be popular amongst many, including myself, that Moos won't fire Riley before the end of the season, good for Moos coming out and issuing some sort of statement. Just hearing from him, especially in an embarrassing moment like the loss to Minnesota is refreshing.

Just realized something while reading that. 

Riley is going to end his Nebraska career with a 19-19 record.

It's poetic.

golly, he's gonna have a tough decision to make when Riley wins the next two games.

/sarcasm.

Well played by Mr Moos I think.  Well played.  In essence he said what most have been wanting to hear, but in a sort of respectful way.  I like this.

The players are sending Riley out the same way they received him .500
