Hey was Bo the coach or did we fire him like the aquarium guy said we would?

DANGIT! Thought we had em til that pick 6 and muffed punt and fumhle at our 2yd line and horse collar tackle and Bo yelling at ref penalty.

YES! Ameer and little Jordy Westerkamp comin at ya from the backfield?? Seriously, not the whole time, but cant the offense use a little wrinkle like this? Im all for this. BUT ball security must be imprinted on their brain for this to work effectively.

We never run out of excuses for a 4 loss season, do we? You seriously dont think losing Martinez and Long hurt?

Taylor wasnt really the issue at Minnysoda. Overall focus seemed elsewhere. Almost like they thought they could sleepwalk through the game and still win.

So you're saying the B1G said...we'll make you a full member starting the 2014 season...and Harvey said "no, go ahead and keep the tens of millions of dollars and wait until 2017, we don't need it." ? Huh? I'm saying the offer changed once "we needed a home". The tone and context of our previous agreement changed once Harvey painted a different picture to them after we had verbally agreed to one set of numbers it changed some. He's really good a running his mouth when it needs to shut up. Case in point the interview with the OWH after the ATM game where Bo when ape sh#t. He commented to the media before ever addressing it with TO and the coach which pretty much tainted Bo's image forever even though his sideline behavior has changed greatly. And lets not forget his quick public support of his old buddy Graham at PSU and telling the word what a great honorable guy that was even though all evidence was supporting the idea the guy had covered up to me the biggest most horrible crime in sports ever. I won't even touch deeply on the fact that he's lied several times yet none of that seems to be brought up in the media. Even in his search for Shawn he said several coaches, TO and other people would be consulted in the hire only for him to announce he found his guy and he never sought council with one single pexrson he said he would. To me that shows his character more than anything. He's a snake and probably the sole reason we were also kicked out of the AAU because he damaged the relationships there to the point that even our B10 members didn't want us in. He really belongs working for the NCAA because they're full of his type. Have you read "Death to the BCS"? If not, great book. You get like 5 chapters in and no mention of Nebraska which is strange. Then tbe begfining of the next chapter starts like "Harvey Pearlman, Chancelloer of the University of Nebraska......" Pretty much sums up his bias and short comings in a brilliant way.

or at least a relationship counselor. That poor bastard would need a case of whiskey and a lapdance after roughly an hour of "Fire Bo, Keep Bo, Your Mom goes to college, Cat GIF".

Well isn't that an oft recurring theme; "their best game was against us". When does that stop being merely a coincidence or the result of uncontrollable factors? True. I should probably look at their stats on the whole year but what I had seen from them going into that game was6 sh#t shows of what appeared to be offense and two games where they clicked on all cylinders. Against us they looked much smoother I felt, guess we will see if they keep that up. Im actually pulling for them at this point to win out.

I spoke with a former accounting professor at Boise State who is a big time booster and he tells me CP is getting ready for Lincoln Nebraska fwiw Is there any real merit to this?

Im still unimpressed with Spartys offense. Their best game was against us, and thats not just my bias at work. Their WRs played great and their QB was solid.

This thread has gone off the deep end. I actually forgot what it began as until I looked back at the title.

I think it was 14 years ago, thats what I heard on the Internet anyway. The intereb you say? Is that the twitspace and mybook thingamajig?

It's stories like the ones in the OP that give me confidence in Bo. Remember Castille? An issue arose, not many details revealed, he was removed. End of story. No big drawn out investigations, no conspiracies. Obviously every situation has a different set of circumstances but I like how Bo handles things in this regard.

LMAO +1

I assume he took what I said wrong. No big deal if thats the case. The part about the pair intimidating a female teacher was also equally disturbing. Shows the lack of control/endorsement of abuse to achieve results. Unfortunate.

YES!

Like I said, all the money he wants. I think he would do it for pennies if he had it worked into his contract we play highlights from the Bucs v Raiders Super Bowl pre game every week.

The FSU piece is a fair and insightful article written by the "other side", that exposes a lot of what goes on but does so without an agenda, actually leading me to sympathize a good deal with the players in some respects. The Alabama piece though.... holy smokes. I find it hard to sympathize with a player who essentially threatened a teachers life with a war story of beating up a homosexual. Then you sure as sh#t better not complain or whine about a single thing in your life. What? I must be missing something here.

Anytime

That FSU peice is enough to make you vomit.

Gruden could win anywhere, mans a festering ball of knowledge. Turned down USC so probably wont come here though.

But Bo isnt lying to the NCAA about it

Football is a Zillion dollar monster. Its not going anywhere.

+1 Landlord, I agree, the fact he went out of his way to cover things up is the problem. Not the silly infraction of tatoos. The lying is an issue, one we wouldnt like here.
