I totally agree. I think fans who think Riley is a good fit, is absolutely delusional. He's been at OSU now for 14 years. If you haven't built a team up within that time, then what makes you think he's going to do any better at Nebraska. I also don't buy the fact that he will have better resources. As mentioned, there are plenty of coaches who built a no name school into winners. It will be a long, long, Riley era.

So much for Riley hiring the best assistants, WTF!!! Bringing over alot of his old assistants. It's not looking good! I hope Riley's buy out clause in his contract is cheap, because him and Eichorst will be fired after next year, when we go 3-9. What a waste.

On a positive note, since, Nebraska has Epily back for strength and conditioning. That will definitely help. He is looking for great assistant coaches. Sources are saying he is looking for assistants that are even better than him, so maybe it will be a good one. Ed Orgeron is interested in being his recruiting coordinator as well. I'm thinking maybe the admin wanted a ceo type coach who can develop qb's and wr's, which is much needed in Nebraska, with great surrounding assistant coaches. Too bad we couldn't snatch Kirby Smart from Alabama as an assistant coach. Pay him tons of money. Just a dream. I'm starting to feel better now!!! Sorry for being negative in my previous posts. It's the cool down period now. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRv8aY5iUQk

How is Riley going to be here tonight? What kind of coach skips out on his team during bowl game preparations? Oregon St only won 5 games this year, NO BOWL GAME!!! Good Hire Huh lol.....WOW!!!

In that case he'll last a hell of a lot longer than you likely will on this board. Why am I being targeted here. I'm just expressing my opinion. I'm sorry you don't like it. I've read other post's worse than mine!!

I have read all the posts and now I'm seeing a change from "WTF" to "Oh well, lets give him a chance". Are you kidding me. Another long 7 years of mediocrity to look forward too. Sure, he may be a great ceo type coach with a lot of coaching experience, but his record is worse than Bo's. 4+ LOSES PER SEASON FOR 14 YEARS!! You would think a coach with a good winning record would be a big part of the coaching hire for an elite school like Nebraska, Hmm. He'll be gone after the first year, so let's start the new coaching search now.

It doesn't change things. What a travesty. Losing 4+ games every year for 14 seasons. Are you kidding me!! Why would he be any better at Nebraska, even with better circumstances. You still have to coach talent. It doesn't look like he coached Oregon St to win, maybe groomed them for the NFL. WTF!!!!!
