What about Solich?

[socalhusker07]

I was thinking tonight... what about Solich? None of us are talking about him and yet he was hand-picked by Osborne before.

 

So... the guy who is conducting the search for the next head coach is the same guy who hand-picked Frank Solich to succeed him at the helm. Then, without Osborne's approval, Solich was fired after a 9-3 year and after showing that he can bring in solid coordinators to complete his staff (i.e. Bo Pelini)... So now, with Osborne back in charge of picking a head coach, why wouldn't he at least look back at Solich and say to himself "He never really got his chance to get going". Or did he?

 

I'd love Husker Nation's thoughts on this subject... seems logical to me, but perhaps just not the right time for a change like this. Would the fan base support his return? Would he have success?

not to be some sort of a dick but Solich has been mentioned about 50 times.

 

No.

Sorry man... :-( The only place I've seen him mentioned is on the ESPN.com Ohio message boards. I was pretty sure I had run through the topics here... but now I realize this is in the wrong forum... it should be in the Rumors forum and perhaps he is mentioned a lot there. My bad man...

I'd quit on Nebraska if we rehired him.

Moving to Rumorville, where we place discussions about possible coaches. There's at least one other thread about Solich in there - you might want to check it out also to see the thoughts of others on the subject.

Thanks AR Husker Fan... I appreciate the move. I completely neglected to look into that forum when I posted this. Again, thanks...

Yeah its OK socal. I didnt mean to be a dick, was just saying that he has been mentioned many times.

Hey, no worries at all. Between my job, my wife, and my two young kids, I hardly get a chance to vote for T.O. for Best Coach of All Time, let alone read all the posts. I just like to contribute so I may get repetetive at times. :-)

Not really much to say about Solich other than i would bet my life that Solich will not be a HC at nebraska ever again.

TO knows that would be impossible now.

 

Frank's DUI basically slammed the door on him coming back. And I don't think he should.

 

Maybe, also, his under-performance here opened Tom's eyes.

Yeah, he got fired by a jackass after a 9-3 season.

It's sad that Callahan and Co actually made Solich look GOOD. That's the only reason we're even mentioning his name-because Bill ran us into the shitter.
