Riley probably did recommend Banker to OSU but when they laughed him off the phone he probably figured he needed to take his bestest best buddy with him.

Yea i totally misread the title. I thought they said taking on purpose. I dont think its that CIA my man,

 

'Riley lovers', is that what it's already come to?

 

Let's lay those ugly relics of the past to rest.

Instead of bo leavers we can call them Rovers

 

Dont worry im sure any freaking out will be quickly doused with a tidal wave of kool aid from the riley lovers.

No, theres a strong flow of kool aid going in the the stout riley supporters. Those of us who are wondering where the hell this came from are alittle more skeptical.

Or, maybe some of us are willing to give the new guy a chance before we deem him a failure. I mean, we only gave big nose 7 years.

You're a disgrace to beans everywhere.

 

He got fired from Clemson...

As a DC tho right?

We're getting the band back together!

This has been debunked by Perlman already. Very little chance this is true.

Consider the source. One is like the National Enquirer of college football. I'll just ignore this, not dwell on it, and look forward to Mike Riley getting something done here at UNL.

How about Jamal Turner? Always thought he'd be used more. Guy's career has to be a huge disappointment for him.

 

I can't wait until people realize this 9 win deal was a smokescreen.

So,what happens if he pulls off a 5~7 season?

 

Boy, your wife must love your optimism. I'm like the crabbiest person I know, and you make me look like I fart rainbows.

Hopefully he explains his plans for topless cheerleaders and late night poker games with Carl Pelini.

I'll try. Riley has done yeoman's work in bringing any talent to Corvallis, so he knows how to recruit despite geographic disadvantages. He gets good results despite a talent and resource disadvantage (albeit with a drop-off over the past couple of years). He's widely known to be one of the nicest, most genuine guys in all of college football, which would definitely be a atmosphere change after Bo.

 

From Reddit. UCLA Fan saying this. I found this very encouraging

Do you think Oregon has more or less geographic disadvantages than Nebraska?

Corvallis has so many more it's laughable.

With the exception of proximity to the ocean, mountains, west coast talent, and playing in a better conference you are correct.

LOL

Ok dude, they get outspent 50-1 by their closest competitor, have facilities that some Texas High schools laugh at, were 1-3 win team at most before him, and he still gets talent comparable to our last coach.

How about you let the man at least have a press conference before you jettison the guy.

So, money spent and facilities. How about the weather? Proximity to talent?

The last i checked, Riley's recruiting consisted of mostly 2* and low 3* recruits, which isn't as good as our previous staff.

The bright side is at least that level of recruiting can keep us competitive in our current division.

So if he can beat top 10 teams with 2* and 3* talent imagine what he can do with better talent, facilities, and resources

Hopefully not lose to multiple FCS schools.

But i thought that this was about playing championship football, not about becoming Iowa State.

Edit: i tell you what, since he is so great. With the upgrade in talent, facilities, and a favorably weak schedule next year, anything less than an undefeated season and a trip to the playoffs next year should mean that he should be looking for a job.

I'd love to place an over/under on how many more years under Pelini would've turned us

into Iowa State, but thankfully, we'll never know how that bet would've played out.

It's fun to make statements that can't be proven.

 

I don't make many absolute statements, but when i do, they come true.

 

1) Callahan would be a failure at NU. check

 

2) Armstrong will not be better than Martinez. Check

 

3) if you fire another 9/10 win coach, you're not going to get a better one. Check

 

2 predictions, we will be more likely to have a losing season next year than we will to go undefeated, and this coach will never win a conference championship.

 

Hope he proves me wrong

 

No you don't.

Here come our new coach!

Still just a little creepy to me, but exciting to see I suppose.

 

 

 

If I wasn't already in my pajamas I'd be heading to the airport right now. Actually I could get to where they're probably meeting within 10 minutes and take a picture of him entering the door...

 

Describe these pajamas.

 

 

 

Moiraine is such a tease you guys. Not only does she not describe her pajamas, she posts sausages and pasty white Iowa women in the Daily Skin section.

Happy birthday brotha

My staff puts Knapp's staff to shame if you know what I mean.

Time will tell. From everything I've read I'm not super excited but am cautiously optimistic. Sounds like a lot of people have a lot of respect for the guy.

I'll support him for at least a few years. I mean, I gave Bo 5.5 years or so before I lost my faith in him completely.

Not sure if this is the right place for this but my brother-in-law, who lives in Lincoln, said he saw RB at the Lincoln CD and he was meeting with TN. He is convinced it means RB is probably THE guy.

Ameer tweeted absolutely nothing about the changes. Not surprised I guess.
