Drowning_in_the_Sea_of_Red Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 This is awesome. Welcome back, Ron! Link to comment
o-line54 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 The rumors had been around but I'm really glad to see this confirmed! Welcome back coach! Now only if he will stop preaching about GOD everytime he speaks! Give the man a break, he is passionate about his faith and has every right to be. It is great to have a guy with such a strong faith back on the staff just like coach Osborne did. He is a great person and is just giving credit where credit is due. Link to comment

SewardHusker Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 the more we move forward the more excited i become. WELCOME BACK COACH BROWN.. welcome back home. Link to comment
Danimal Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 It says a lot that Ron Brown got so many nice job-offers while coaching wr's at an option-school. He is definitely of the the better position-coaches we've had and good addition to the staff. Link to comment

Now only if he will stop preaching about GOD everytime he speaks! you are living in the wrong country brotha......he can talk about his beliefs all he wants You guys are hilarious. According to some he has the right to talk about his beliefs but I don't have the right to be annoyed by those beliefs? I would never say he doesn't have the right to talk about his beliefs, but why don't I have the right to talk about my beliefs? I believe religious beliefs are a private matter and you don't go around advertising them at every opportunity. I also believe (based upon the constitution) that you don't use a government job (yes, that's what being a coach at NU is) as a platform for advancing your religious beliefs. Like I said, I am glad he is back, because i think he is a good person and a good coach. I just wish he would stop trying to convert me when I am reading the sports page and just want to learn about the team. Link to comment

Are you so totally backed up that even the merest mention of the word "God" throws you into a fit? It must be a difficult life you live, brother. Link to comment

Apparently you're not mature enough to discuss something intelligently without personal insults, so I see no need to respond to your comments. And I'm not your brother, so enough with that act too.

Talk about your beliefs all you want, your the one saying that you didn't want RB talking about his. If you don't like his comments don't listen. Link to comment

Ah, but I am. I am totally ok with his right to believe in whatever he wants. I am totally ok with him expressing it in the appropriate forum. I think his job with the FCA was perfect for that. I just don't think it is appropriate to use his job as a Nebraska coach to do it. Please do not twist my opinion into something it is not. Link to comment

All I'm saying is don't do it in his capacity as a Nebraska coach. I'm sure everyone, including me, would have a problem if a coach used his position to advance his belief in voodoo, or to advance his lack of belief and talk about his atheism. I don't see why it is any different if another coach is using his position to advance his belief in christianity. Link to comment
