captain obvious Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I totally missed it. Does anybody have a link to an article with his agent's comments? Just curious. Quote Link to comment
COHUSKER Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Her you go. He's a real class act. :asshat Omaha World Herald Quote Link to comment
captain obvious Posted November 14, 2007 Author Share Posted November 14, 2007 Can you post the whole thing? I don't have a subscription. Quote Link to comment
Dan_F_30 Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Can you post the whole thing? I don't have a subscription. He can't. We learned about 4 weeks ago that is a no-no on huskerboard to post copyrighted material. So if he posts it, it will probably be deleted... Quote Link to comment
captain obvious Posted November 14, 2007 Author Share Posted November 14, 2007 Oh. Thanks for the link, though. Quote Link to comment
HuskerTrucker Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 What an idiot....he has the same attitude that BC has about people here in the midwest....gee...lets try counting those socks in the locker room....why, what else do we have to do for excitement around here? Quote Link to comment
BigRed95 Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Billy's agent said "...Listen to how stupid you people are. You people need to start studying soil content or something. Why don't you find out how many pair of socks get washed every day in the locker room?..." Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Callahan agent is a total class act and the model of professionalism. Quote Link to comment
MNHuskerFan Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Oh My Flippin God, I cant believe he had the balls to say something like that. I also come to realize the guy only lives a few blocks from me. Quote Link to comment

NMHUSKER Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 Hah guess Im as confused as his agent. Lets see the question was: Will he resign? meaning will he walk away from a Million $$$ because he lost games? Duh seems a pretty stupid question to me. Hi Agent Answer: Although I agree tackless does seem like a Forrest Gump answer to a Forrest Gump question. Stupid is as stupid does. IN a nutshell---WE hired him, WE gave him lots of money, WE extended his contract. WE want to get rid of him WE fire him and WE still pay him. AND his agent still gets his cut. WE being the University, WE being all those who wanted Solich replaced, WE being all that wanted Pederson, WE being all those demanding Callahan go. Coaches resign when they get a better deal to move on or get tired and want to retire or disgrace a program which voids his contract clause. NOT when they have a losing record. Just ask Paterno, Bowden, Spurrier, Switzer, Johnson, Carroll or Tom Osborn Quote Link to comment

If you're a Husker Fan, you would be included in that "WE." We're all in this together. WE may not all have liked all of those decisions, but WE all have to live with them, especially if WE are going to continue to wear that big red N on our shirts/hats/coats/etc. Quote Link to comment

But I understand how dumb the question was. Do you? Callahan isn't leaving one way or the other without some pocket money. If any of you think different then you probably couldn't count the socks or do a soil sample. If WE want him gone WEwill have to fire him. Callahan may be dumb as some have said but his agent isn't.

Absolutely. I'm not making excuses for the reporter - that was a first-year-out-of-college question from a veteran reporter. He got the answer he should have gotten from that question. It just seemed by your answer that you were saying you didn't agree with any of those decisions and it was "all the other fans" who were wrong. It struck me as odd since the WE things you were saying were on opposite sides of the fence in the general discussion here. I could be wrong, though. Quote Link to comment
