Mr. Husker

Possible visit for the NW game. Our staff is pushing him hard.

Haven't heard the fridge one yet. Heard he kicked a wall after the Wyoming first half and fractured two toes closest to the big toe. It's all speculation, but one thing's for sure, definitely not turf toe.

What I don't understand is how you can't see it happening. After cursing at the fans, telling someone in confidence that he was going to leave, and how us fans can kiss his *** out the door, and numerous people that are "insiders", whom have very strong connections, claim that this is fact. Don't be naive. I understand that you are one of those people that if you can't see it, it must not exist, but just trust me, this is very true. Agree to disagree if you'd like, but I will believe what I know. Tennessee, Miami, and Arkansas.

He gets it.

Let me try this, since it seems to be the "in" thing right now... 1. Those kids you named, didn't have many starts, and we never really got to see them on the field, and simply, we have seen the talent of these Freshman. Bando, Gerry, Valentine, Afalava, McMullen, Moss and Rose have shown a ton of promise. Sure they make mistakes, but they are FRESHMAN and still learning a system that is not as complicated as many think it is. 2. We can Bo, we take a hit on recruiting like you stated, regardless of when we do it. Only chance I don't see this happening, is if we hire a big name coach. 3. Ditto, but its not as clean as you think it is. Every, and I mean EVERY program has things going on behind closed doors, and head coaches have no idea its happening. 4. This is something I agree, to an extent. Bo should put his big boy pants on, and when he felt it was time for TM to be pulled, he should have given Beck no choice, because HE is Head Coach. Not pulling Martinez is Beck's fault, just as much as Bo's. Call for Bo's head on this, you need to call for Beck's. True to the Red pointed out an ESPN article where TM even thought Armstrong was going to get meaningful snaps, and Bo was ok with that, but Beck didn't want it to happen, because the game was too competitive. If Beck is too damn blind to see that Martinez isn't performing and we have TWO capable QB's behind him, who can win, this guy is too blind to rely on, IMO. 5. You can sit here and say Bo tried to reach out, but you can't prove it to be right or wrong. This is a complete rumor on both ends and to try and make this a valid point, is just a complete opinion, not a fact. IMO, if Bo isn't willing to put on his big boy pants, make assistant changes that are drastically needed, then he needs to go. Bo needs to be a HEAD COACH and let his assistants do what they are hired for, if they don't know, get someone who does. This is why Saban is so successful. He has GREAT assistants next to him. Same goes for Les Miles. Change is needed, I think this is something we can all agree on. Very excited about those players, don't get me wrong, the development of the past players scare me though, which lead me to be worried about the current players. One would think that Bo would have more of a say who plays instead of his Offensive Coordinator (Not a big fan of Beck either). I won't speak on the reaching out to other programs because like you said, it is beating a dead horse. Just my thoughts.

1. Very Promising talent. But, for example, just take a look at a few players we currently have, or are gone. Such as Jason Ankrah, Chase Rome, Corey Cooper, Charles Jackson, Todd Peat, Jr., etc. All these players were high ceiling potential players that never (some still have time) fully developed, so I guess my question for you is, what makes you think that these freshman that are currently in the system are going to develop more efficiently than those who are about out, or have gone through the system already? 2. I do agree with you here to a certain extent, but that is mainly because I do not know who would be our interim head coach. Recruiting would still take a hit if we fired him at the end of the year, so we shouldn't worry about that, and we have enough talent on our team to get at least one more win to become bowl eligible with Bo or not. 3. No complaints here. 100% agree with you. Very satisfied with keeping the ship clean. 4. That is the problem. It is our COACHES duty to make sure the players are prepared physically and mentally for ANY team. Whether it be the children of the blind or goliath. Our players must be prepared to take on the world. For them to look over a 5-2 Minnesota team is 100% the coaches fault. How you can say that is a reason Bo should stay is beyond me. 5. Loyal? Bo has tried reaching out to multiple programs (Whether you want to believe that or not, I don't care). I hate to turn into a "revolving door program" as well but, how can you tell me this is the coach that you want to have on our sidelines? I have supported Bo since day one, but I can't take this anymore. We are beginning to set our tents up in oblivion, and it is time for a change.

Since the playsheet hangs from Pap's belt on a wire...was Pap forced to follow Bo around all game? Just relaying what I was told.

Pap signaling the plays Bo calls is a huge myth IMO. Paps doesn't have the title defensive coordinator to just signal plays.

FYI I received a text from someone who is affiliated with the program that said, after the first quarter Bo had some interesting words for Pap. Saying "I can't believe I've been letting you call the plays for a ******* year". Then proceeded to grab his play sheet and called the plays the rest of the game while Papuchis just stood there for the rest of the game . I don't know if this is going to have any effect on our defense production, but I thought this was interesting to say the least.
