Not since 97

Now we know the truth! Lately if you don't have a Y-town (Cardinal Mooney) connection you won't get hired onto this staff. If a man from Youngstown wants to coach he just needs to put his shingle out and either Stoops or Pelini's will hire them. Nepotism at it's finest. What a failure, We went from bad, to worse yet again. Tell me we didn't bring the D-Line coach from one of the few teams we were able to move the ball on. Wow Bo must really be POed he was overlooked in 03, he's doing everything he can to turn us into the Youngstown Fighting Irish

No, you should just rehash all the tripe we hear about Bo ad infinitum around here. Oh, wait. That's what you're doing. Over & over & over. He has no solutions, no clue about "anything" except to rip apart everything we do & have. Why, if we just had an internet genius like "Not since 97" in charge we'd have won the last four NCs. Damn.... The only thing I can't figure out is why he's not out there making millions of $$$ annually punching out undefeated seasons for some other program. Oh boy, they'll be so lucky to have him. I bet he's getting overwhelmed with massive offers every single day.... Thank you!

Apparently you don't watch any college football other than Nebraska. Now I understand why you're so ignorant when it comes to the sport. You say you want Gary Patterson to come in and replace Pelini when his TCU team got beat by La. Tech last night. Good solution to your Pelini problem, right? Texas beat us every time in the Big 12 except one, they had our number. I was talking about Iowa St. beating Oklahoma St. who was ranked number 2 in the nation at the time, providing proof to my statement that Rhoades is a good coach. They got damn lucky that game, also. Your solutions to solve "your" problem are stupid. You know absolutely nothing about college football. You're a pessimist and all you do is complain and I feel bad for you, especially during Christmas time. Get off the computer, worry about the important things in your life (which I hope is not football or a football coach) and have a Merry Christmas. Im done. Oh the Irony, who is it that doesn't know squat about College Football, save your preaching for some other young-un. I attended every Husker Game at home from 70 on. I made most Bowls and reasonable continental games I could. I saw no reason to travel to Hawaii or Japan but my Guess is you weren't even born when we were going up against Switzer. My guess is you were probably just out of Diapers the last time we were respectable so please go blow smoke up someone else's rear with your misinformed info. Go La. Tech! I could give two craps about how many Husker games you've been to since 70. Wow, congrats, you were born before me. Here's a cookie You seemed to give a crap a while back when you were shooting your mouth off about my knowledge of football with all your La Tech babbling, All Your petrified of big mean ole Texas Horse Dooky. " Oh Texas is so scary they beat us every year because they have such great athletes" This approach and psychology is exactly why they beat us, Thats another reason Bo needs to go, he gets a football attitude going on with 1-3 players a year and the rest, well......they let Texas steam roll them like Rice, Wyoming and Florida Atlantic did. It's weird but as we stumbled around back in the old days tripping up against teams like OU, I don't remember the fan base whining about what sub par athletes we had, I think it all got pinned directly on the head coach as it should. This new generation excuse train is mind boggling

Really? whats a typical Big Ten team? And a typical SEC team? I'm actually excited about this responce

It really depends but I will let you know, for Bo to pull off a miracle win against SEC speed would take a serious miracle, This aint the weak Big XII and Big Ten we're dealing with. I expect them to crush us in the 56-3 range if we're lucky. If we keep it anywhere inside 30 points I may throw him a prop or two. Spurriers joining the ranks of coaches that are well past their prime You haven't watched a USC game this year have you. Either you haven't or this is a joke. UNL isn't Kentucky...it won't be 56-3. Whoever wins will win close. Close? we got dismantled by Wisconsin and Michigan who would get throttled by the c$%ks no doubt about it. Yea but the difference is both Wisconsin and Michigan have offenses...USC not so much Whats Wisconsins record vs the SEC? My guess is it doesn't take much of anything to beat our defense and SEC speed is far beyond anything the Big Ten has

There are plenty of people on this board that don't like Pelini. This guy is just going way overboard with his hatred of the program and of Pelini as a person. Of course none of us like losing games we should win, but most of us realize Pelini is a young head coach and his potential to become a great head coach is there and we want to see if he can reach it. I can live with 9 or 10 wins a year bc I realize the chances of us winning another MNC in my lifetime are very slim. The sooner people come to this realization, the sooner people can just enjoy Nebraska football again. We can't live in the past forever, we are not a top program anymore where coaches and players line up to come here. If we are going to win another MNC, we need a coach who has years and years to build his team. Many more than 4 years. Precisely. No no no, nothing to see here. You guys need to fire Bo, bring on the next guy and move along. It's what's best for your oppone--- I mean Nebraska. Seems to work for other real teams, but then again those teams usually have recruiters before they crap the bed. Theres been many a team grab a real coach and win a National Championship quickly. Heck even the choke artist from Youngstown even pulled it out. Then you got the over hyped frauds like Pelini and Muschamp

Look at our staff, you want that staff up in Wisconsin? You think the Huskers have one quality coach on their staff? If so, who and why. I can say Ron Brown was part of the staff when we were dominating and at least respectable.

Anything would be better than what we have, maybe not Cosgrove, but their defenses were very similar this season, maybe pay Mangino in Pizzas. Yeah bc we would all love to lose to La. Tech every year. Good idea! Or Northwestern at home, non bowl Texas at home, ISUs and spats with the Jackrabbits are pretty equal Northwestern is better than La. Tech. Texas is still Texas and have 5 star recruits all over the field. Paul Rhoades is a damn good coach, remember OSU game this year or were you too busy figuring out how to steal Christmas up in your cave? And we beat SDSU, who cares? Mods can we please let the rules slide one night and all tell this guy how we really feel about him without getting banned? I don't even understand the La.tech thing, are you talking about when they had a career record setting day against Solich or something. Texas is still Texas eh, at least they beat Rice, wyoming, Florida atlantic and us at home.....darn impressive. Do I remember the OSU game this year where they were having their way with the Huskers before David jacked their QB who would have continued to chew through Pelinis defense? Yeah I remember it just like the Wisconsin game, Michigan fiasco, Northwestern debacle and last years horrendous bowl game. Things are really looking up!

Actually Dirk is pretty easy on Bo, almost girl scout-ish. There are entire boards where Pelini is shredded much harder than I do. They're actually completely correct in their assessment of his foolish antics and terrible coaching. But continue to live in your delusional fantasy world and think he's anything but a high paid carnival clown in charge of yet another failed experiment since 97 Wow. Your off the deep end aren't ya. The only place I have seen anything remotely close to what you are saying is on the rivals free board. And that is pretty much one or two guys spreading that hate. You probably ought to go back to those other sits where you share the same opinion's with others. BUH BYE. Im off the deep end? I'm guessing you haven't been paying much attention to Bo getting manhandled coaching wise by much lesser opponents?

must have loved cosgrove and the fraud....wow amaising what nebraska fans have evolved into- Actually I thought Cosgrove should have never been hired in the first place and he stunk just as bad as the defense you watched this year. Actually Cosgrove produced a couple defense better than this years disaster. But regardless they both need to be unemployed

You see, I consider you a troll. Anyone that watches our incompetence the last couple years as Callahan recruits dry up, and calls people out for pointing out what a fail the Pelini nightmare is, lives in a fantasy world for sure

You're correct, I meant offense. There are coaches out there that can defend more than one type of offense or at least try to adjust properly. Its amazing how Nebraska can't get any good players and we're stuck with crap like Suh and the rest of the defensive players that fell in Pelinis lap. I will have to agree that THIS staff won't be able to get the SEC types though, if they couldn't do it after Suhs domination, they never will. Our bowl game should be a good representation of where we sit in year 5 Man I hope we wipe the floor with South Carolina, just to see how you respond. You can hope all you want, Im sure Spurrier is drooling over game film of Pelinis awesome defensive prowess. When you see the type of players Spurriers staff recruits playing on the same field with us, its going to be a rude awaking. Well, probably not if you're not bother by all the other blowout losses, Im sure there will be more young and inexpeirenced excuses

stop fighting! it is christmas week! i come here to avoid petty fights, if i wanted incessant bickering, i would go home for the holidays. Or have me post my love for Pelini ! Different era, Spurrier doesn't care 1 lick about this middle of the Pack Big Ten Nebraska team. Its a million light years from the squad that crushed his Gators

Maybe on this board, theres other boards where 100 out of 100 want the choke artist removed or knew he should have never been here in the first place. He's about as non professional as they come. Look at his staff, look at him on the sidelines, look how he handles his depth, recruiting, fans, media, running defenses, Timeouts, special teams, O-lines, offense in general, doghouses, his wifes cute little gloves, his tireless excuses, 4 years of being young and inexperienced, Jamrog, Cotton, and his family getting fat off NU, and all those blowout losses and close calls against garbage teams in seriously weak arse schedules. Man ....whew are we lucky! Really, you post this picture as some kind of proof. He is a very public figure in Nebraska, yet this is the only "unflattering" picture I've seen of him off the field. I'm a very private person and my wife has more bad pictures of me on her Facebook page. (p.s. I don't go to the bars, I'm a teacher, and a father of 3) I would really like to continue with some kind of rant, but I just realized you might be a fan of R. Kelly!!! Post his picture as proof? Ummm, you don't need pictures as proof to Pelinis failures, Just watch all his blowout losses in a row, including all the ones in Memorial Stadium and you can start back in the Solich days as he runs across the field to act like a baboon towards Snyder because Snyder exposed how weak his defenses really are. A first taste at his style and class as well as coaching talent

You have a smart wife, she obviously watches the trainwreck and can clearly see how unfortunate we are. Tell her not to worry, she has thousands getting sick of the BS and after next years 7 win or less in this pathetic conference if we're lucky, Tom will be forced to move. Perlman listens to cash

Naw if I had a choice , a real conference, like A&M went to. With a real staff though

Steve Pederson thought so too. It's not a question of if there are qualified people, it's a matter of who would take the job under the hypothetical circumstances that I presented. If it wasn't good enough for Urban Meyer and... *gasp* Houston Nutt, then we really need to re-evaluate how we go about handling the way we let people go around here. Had Steve Pederson forced Callahan to fire Cosgrove or GTFO, we may be looking a whole lot different. I will never understand Callahans obsession with a blatantly terrible DC, I guess it's not much different from Cotton and Jammies you do not see a line coach and a coordinator as being 'much different'? Not at all, meaningless baggage laying around taking up valuable positions or needing a bunch of little helpers like Santa is bad coaching recognition

I will have to agree that THIS staff won't be able to get the SEC types though, if they couldn't do it after Suhs domination, they never will. Our bowl game should be a good representation of where we sit in year 5 SUH largely benefited from being coached by the pelini bros. also, i am not sure what your last sentence meant. finally, 'not since '97' is not something to be ashamed of. that is pretty recent, unless you are younger than 14 years old. Suh largely benefitted from maturing which includes getting stronger, meaner. Suh was/is an animal Im pretty sure he would be trying to kill QBs with or without the Pelinis. How did their magic wand work on Crick?
