SwiftFan87 Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 One of two coaches from Bill Callahan’s staff to be retained by new NU head football coach Bo Pelini, Gilmore has already sat in distant living rooms with his new boss. Gilmore had a little something in common with the high school recruits Pelini spoke to on these living room visits. Just like the kids, he wondered what Pelini might say. “I don’t know if Bo knows this,” Gilmore said, “but not only was he recruiting those kids, but he was recruiting me. I was listening to every word, listened to the way he conducted business, listened to what his philosophy is, what his vision is for the program. And I can stand here before you and say I’m excited to be a part or it.” http://www.journalstar.com/huskerextra/foo...d2578862183.txt Quote Link to comment

Wally Posted December 15, 2007 Share Posted December 15, 2007 Everybody and their mother wants to walk on , he says... Oh baby that sounds good! Maybe if he said "everybody and their dog" I would be happier. Dogs can run circles around defensive players. Quote Link to comment

Maybe if he said "everybody and their dog" I would be happier. Dogs can run circles around defensive players. i'd be willing to guess that a few of their mothers could run circles around the current defensive players. Quote Link to comment
Glendower Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 I hope we see a big slew of walk-ons who go out there and bust their asses and lift, run, and hit until they pass out. If that doesn't make the BC Corrupted players say, "Holy crap, THAT is what trying looks like? I'd better step it up." I'm sure they all worked as hard as they had to in practice, but, from what it sounds like, the new practiceseseses weren't much compared to the old ones. We'll see if a change of atmosphere and general attitude has an effect. Quote Link to comment
I See Red People Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 It's nice to hear people are listening to what he's got to say, and liking it. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I liked how he spent the recruiting trips trying to read Pelini and came back excited about the future. I foresee great things on the horizon and Coach Pelini will make a big splash fast! Quote Link to comment

Cant wait to see what spring ball is gonna bring. Quote Link to comment
admo Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 just another good sign of possible good things to come. I hate to say it b/c it's still early, but man was I off about the Pelini. It's all good though. Quote Link to comment

The way our recruits are dropping like flies, many of those "walk ons" will get schollies anyways! No reason they shouldn't if they're good enough. A great walk on is just as good as any.
