  1. Yes you did. You have no clue about details of a meeting last year between these two. Yes I do
  2. Got something to share? I don't think I have even posted in here
  3. You guys using Nussmeier as your argument realize he was pushed out by Saban in favor of Kiffin right?
  4. You DO know what the disparaging nickname for the Big 8 was when Osborne was coaching?... ..."Big 2, Little 6". Look, I don't know if Bo has what it takes to be a head coach, but I just don't see anything happening this year...although I have been wrong plenty of times before. There is also a sense that whoever would be Bo's successor will be an automatic improvement, which I remember hearing ad nauseum when Callahan was hired. Yeah our next hire could be crap, what is your point? He would win as many conference and national titles as Bo
  5. Callahan only got what, 4 years? I didn't see anybody asking for him to get more time. Granted, Pelini hasn't had any losing seasons or missed being bowl eligible like Callahan did, but hey, if Pelini can improve with time, why couldn't Callahan? Cosgrove was a B1G guy. The transition would have been smoother with him as DC. He wouldn't of given up 408 yards to Gordon either
  6. That's a lot of phone calls for you to have made... Do you know just how close they were to losing the streak this season because he was retained?
  7. Losses happen. blow outs happen. Hard fought losses happen. I hate losing just as much as everyone. DPE was the goat last week and a hero this week. He don't fumble twice we beat Minnesota. It happens. You might be to young to remember, but blowout losses didn't used to happen at Nebraska, neither did getting out coached. These days, both happen every season. You might find these things acceptable, I don't. In 25 years Tom Osborne's teams finished up the season ranked outside the top 15 in the AP poll exactly one time. That was in 1990 and he finished 24th. After that season he made changes that resulted in a 60-3 run with 3 National Titles. No Pelini's best finish so far is 14th and in 2008 wasn't even ranked. And that 14th ranking? That was his only final rank above 15th. Osborne had 24 season ranked 15th or above. We are mediocre at best. 25 years ago. That's all everyone keeps saying. It's not 25 years ago any more. Everyone loses. nebraska will never be like they were 25 years ago. Not even for 1 year out of 7?
  8. The same people that complain about Bo would have been screaming for Osborne's head in the 80s and early 90s. Do we need some changes? Sure. Let's get a new OC (one willing to bench TA). But we don't need a new HC. How do you know that to be true? Did you post on here and remember who said that? You say thigs as outlandish things as if they are facts when they are almost certain not to be 100% accurate. At least say I'm my IMO or something. We know FOR A FACT that people wanted Osborne fired for decades. The reasons included: Bowl losses Not being able to beat Oklahoma Not being able to get past X number of wins Poor decision making (going for 2, which is celebrated now) The same bullsh#t we hear now. Are you honestly going to tell me the people that want to fire Pelini for never losing more than 4 games would have supported Osborne? Bo hasn't finished in the top 10 is what 0-8 or something stupid like that against top 25 over the last so many years? No bcs bowls or major bowls to speak of etc etc....defending Bo as you are is basically admitting to lowering your standards and settling
  9. BYU will be a challangeIs BYU stud qb going to be able to play Yes
  10. How is that any better than right now? Name one thing we have right now that we wouldn't have through one or two 5-7 seasons other than a handful of small feel good wins against Purdue and Illinois and Rutgers. You seriously don't have a clue. If we played that 2007 schedule with this team, we'd be 5-7, easy. That schedule had 10 bowl teams on it, and 2 defending conference champs. No room for facts in the we can't do any better than Bo thread
  11. You sit your coach down and say here is the deal we canned Bo because he couldn't deliver a conference champ or top 10 finish in 7 years. Can you do better? Great sign here
  12. Yes! Let's set the program back another 9 years! You don't know this Mary Pat
  13. Bos best win this year is over a 7-5 Iowa team for the love of god
  14. I feel your pain but we will survive as long as Bo is canned
  15. This is my 2nd year of feeling like this There is some feeling left. It's rage at the idea that Pelni might be retained at the end of the season. If that were to happen, I do think I would lose my sh#t pretty bad. If he is retained I am boxing up my husker apparel and sending it to SE and asking him to send it back when Bo is gone
  16. Me too. Had a cigar and a scotch in the backyard. Unbelievable. More scotch
  17. The after game presser should be fun as well as 1620 the zone
  18. Whisky just drink it and forget your sorrows Thank you, I just ran out of beer
