    Bo was extremely frustrating to deal with. You'd win every single game that didn't matter with a B+ grade on the report card and lose every game that did by 20+ points. Sure, we'd love to have those easy wins now but at the time it made sense. The 2009-10 defenses that he hung his hat on had some absolutely monster talent and his staffs were meh recruiters. As his guys came in the holes started to get worse and worse. 

     

    There was also a really toxic culture he and everyone else in the administration contributed to that's been flushed out since, thankfully. He hasn't accomplished anything since for a reason.

    This is revisionist history. We were dogs in both big 12 title games and lost those at there very end of the games. He upset Missouri in Martinez freshman year.

     

    We just hadn't adapted to big 10 football yet. His defenses were designed to kill the air raid and pass heavy teams. It takes time to rebuild that into a power team. Had eichorst had his back, I believe he could have turned things around.

     

    But let's not pretend Bo was a bad coach. He's the best we've had since solich.

  2. I actually think this might be the only thing to save the streak. I mean I was considering not watching any more games this season but now I'm curious to see if this team starts to actually develop. 

     

    I'm sure lots of fans were settling into the idea that we'd lose out and it would be ugly. Of course I had no expectations to start the season.

    Spot on. I hope  fans think better of running him and his tenure into the ground. 

    His tenure was a disaster. There's nothing wrong with saying this. He's still one of the all time best qbs in husker history.

    I’m nervous that some of these players we’ve recruited will leave-namely our quarterback. 
    I hope not.  If by chance Scott decided to resign or is fired would Mickey Joseph be the interim head coach? 

    Why? Why do you fear anything at this point? Every single kid could transfer out and we field a completely new team with a new coach and what....we don't win 1 game? He'll I don't see how we win more than 1 this year.

     

    What's the difference. Blow it all up and we can't do much worse. I'd argue that it may be easier to start with all new players that don't have years of a losing mentality.
