Papuchis discusses the road that led him to Nebraska


Recommended Posts

reference? link? accusation by?? radio and TV sell news and rumors, some true, some not.

 

Here are a few to get you going. I mentioned the questionable hires by Bo in another post and this is the one at the top of the list. I find it sad that this program is stooping to new lows in hiring know violators of serious NCAA rules. It won't surprise me a bit when this program ends up on probation in a few years. How far we have fallen. We have now become the OU of the 21st century. I would have thought Pelini would have been of better character than this or at least hoped TO would be overseeing who was being hired but it appears he is asleep at the wheel.

Yeah Rat, your're on top of your game........common sense says that GA's would take the fall before an actual coach

 

 

 

It is not clear which violations directly involved Papuchis. One person familiar with Papuchis' situation at Kansas said Papuchis is being "hung out to dry" and that he's "the kind of kid who will fall on the sword for someone." quate from newspaper article

 

Sounds like it was Maginos mess and he took the blame. Funny I don't remember there being a scandle back then, but then it was KU football team and no one even knew they had one. How sad is it that Kansas with NCAA sanctions got better while Callahan teams got worse with no sanctions and better recruiting classes.

Kansas was cited for lack of institutional control because the violations spanned several years including some before Magino got there.

 

I'm not worried about Papuchis. John Blake is said to have used some questionable recruiting practices. But we'll leave that up to the investigators.

I just worry that our d-staff is very heavy on buddy-hires that are light on qualifications. Marvin rules but Bo is really sticking his neck-out with Ekler, Papuchis, and Carl. Maybe they are quality-guys with a fire in their belly that just needed an opportunity. I certainly hope that. But til they prove it I worry a bit.

they really have to be sh**ty coaches to be worse than Coz and Elmo. but since Marvin will be coaching the DB's and Bo will be calling the Defensive plays for now, I think that we will be OK

It does make me feel better that we do have a quality DC in Bo. Marvin blows Elmo's doors-off. If the other guys are a tie we still come-out much improved. Just gotta trust that Bo hired with his head and not his heart with the other guys. Chances are he did, but we won't know til we've played.

 

S&C getting squared-away will definitely help. Having a team that can fly to tbe ball would have gotten us bowling and we wouldn't have been blown-out like we were.
