Just posted on another thread, haven’t seen anything else yet on here but have heard that Tony Dungy is going to be brought in strictly as an interim head coach for the rest of the year. Frost will be fired with cause. Dungy will hopefully be able to keep players and recruits in the program while Trev conducts through search for new permanent head coach

No idea on permanent replacement, but word is the leaks on Frost are indeed intended to be able to fire with cause sooner rather than later. Trev has ties to Tony Dungy from his NFL days and apparently has been in talks for Dungy to take over as interim head coach for the rest of the year while Trev conducts thorough search for a permanent replacement with the thinking that Dungy will stem the tide of players and recruits leaving the program. Crazy times!

DEFENSE!

Let me say this first, Bo is our couch, he is my coach, and I don't see that changing. For sake of conversation though, I will say that Petersen would be a huge hire, but look what happened to Colorado when they hired the Coach of the Year from Boise State. Nothing good. Richt is interesting, especially with his native roots. But Leach is the most intriguing to me. He seems to be a little eccentric but maybe thats whats needed with todays game. He got it done in the Big 12, he can get it done in the Big 10. I wouldnt hold this years record against him at WSU, if he had the facilities and program of a place like Lincoln I think he could get back to his TT success. Would need to hire a VERY good D coord tho, and by hire I mean we shoudl be the one to pick out the D Coord and say this is who you got.

It would be great to continue this historic rivalry and doing so cross conference would just add to it IMO. I know I'm not the only one sick of cupcakes on the non conf schedule every year and if we can replace the one good game (Cal this year) with a team our boys can actually get excited for, well I'm all for it!

The 95 group was one of the most well rounded teams I've ever sen in college ball

I've seen that line move from -6 to -10.5 this week and thats still nowhere near wht the Red Raiders are gonna need to make this one close

They're talking about this over on the Iowa board now http://mbd.scout.com/mb.aspx?s=8&f=137...sto=MS_63174336

Please don't let it be what I have heard around town in Omaha the last few days. I didn't believe it at first but heard it from a few different sources. Apparently folks have it in their head that Penn State has lured Pelini into taking over at the end of this year when Joe Paterno steps down. This would be VERY upsetting

Get bent RaiderMan. And to the orignal post - they must be earned!

I don't think it can get any worse than the fans in Boulder. They are despicable. I've been to many venues and they are hands down the most obnoxious, boisterous, vulgar, violent, etc, etc, etc that I have ever encountered.

The Heisman has really become a joke, the only players getting serious consideration are the QB's from the preseason top teams. The award use to mean something. It is great to see defensive representation coming from Nebraska though - and much deserved!
