DeathCultArmaggedon Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 Sort of strange not to see Zack Bowman playing during the final home game of his senior year. Callahan brushed aside and refused to answer questions regarding his status during Monday's press conference ("I'm only going to discuss the players that played"). Does anyone have any insight? Is he hurt, or is it a behavior issue? Quote Link to comment

tattooedhusker Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 makes you wonder since there was no explanation as to why he didn't play, if Bowman and Billy C were having some conflicts? Quote Link to comment

BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 There was something shady they way Callahan answered it. I'm glad Blue got experience but Callahan should have addressed the actual question. Quote Link to comment

MCAT800 Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 I guess it's just to technical for all of us to understand. But seriously that guy really pisses me. Who does he think he is. Quote Link to comment
Husker_Power Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 per LJS On Senior Day, cornerback and captain Zack Bowman, played in only one series against Kansas State. His limited playing time was not because of injury. Why didn't Bowman play more? "Well, we played (freshman) Anythony Blue, and I thought Anthony played outstanding football," Callahan answered. "We had some young players like (Prince) Amukamara and Blue that I think are going to be outstanding corners. I thought, Blue, for the most part, in the coverages he was in, played very well at times, and played physical football. (He) played the type of football we're looking for from a corner ... I was really pleased with his performance." So Bowman didn't play simply because Blue earned the playing time over him? "Well, like I said, I'm just going to talk about the starters and players that did well," Callahan said. Coaches asked Bowman to come in late but Bowman told them it was fine to let the young guys finish the game. Quote Link to comment

I simply can't see the reason for benching Bowman, one of the few talented bright spots on our defense over the last years. Kudos to him for telling the coaches to stick it at the end of the game when they wanted to give him charity PT. Quote Link to comment

If they asked him to come in late in the game, he obviously was not injured, and for Bowman to turn the coaches down at the opportunity to play says "screw you, i could have played all game" I cant believe they would slap him in the face like that on senior day.

zoogs Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 I agree, this sounds like a very shady deal. Why the hell is Bowman in the doghouse? Quote Link to comment
captain obvious Posted November 12, 2007 Share Posted November 12, 2007 It was f'ing senior day! How could he bench him? Quote Link to comment

Coaches asked Bowman to come in late but Bowman told them it was fine to let the young guys finish the game. good for him. cally has jacked up the whole team, he understands nothing, absolutely nothing about college ball. what a f'ing prick!!!!!!
