    Well, this is a discussion board...isn't it? I mean, I guess they could change the rules and make it a board just for posting unicorns and rainbows and showing much love and support for everything that the coaching staff does. But I thought we were allowed to come and voice concerns, vent frustrations, criticize coaching decisions....These coaches make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to do a job...if they aren't doing it...then I think they should be open to criticism. You will never (NEVER) see me going after the players, calling them out individually or as a group; they are kids brought here to live out their dream and play Husker football. But I feel that the coaching staff is fair game. 

     

    I was not sold on Riley as a choice for Nebraska head coach. I am from So Cal and I remember him as the Chargers head coach, and since I see a lot of Pac 10/12 football, I remember him as the OSU coach. I know that he ran one of those programs where everyone was absolutely thrilled if he could upset one of the big boys once a year...and if he could manage a season with double-digit wins every 5 or 6 years. I don't think that's enough for Nebraska.

    As locountry said above, this .500 coaching seems to be in his blood. It doesn't even seem to bother him. 

    So reading threads like this is "Very tiring"? Then why do you read them? There are many topics on Huskerboard that don't interest me...I just don't click on them. Maybe you should try that if reading my post is so "tiring". 

    I will say it again...settle down Francis...wow!

    dude do you honestly think all this frustration is from one game! try try the last 15 or more.

    Settle down Francis! I am frustrated too, but this was the first game with a new defensive scheme. I thought the O looked pretty decent last night and ran the ball well....better than they have been. I trust the defense will continue to rise.

    Hail Varsity: Nebraska's Defense Will be Fine

    Last night I was pissed and shocked at how it all went, but this morning, I feel like they sat back and took it (for lack of a better way to say it). Stayed pretty vanilla and did just enough to win. 

     

    There were moments where you could see the difference in coaching....when Diaco dialed up pressure it seemed to work pretty well. The dline had some good things and I am pretty excited about Thomas...he seemed explosive and was able to get some pressure.

     

    Oregon will definitely prove the theory of staying vanilla or having some glaring issues. I trust the coaches and really hope they play better!
