Husker Z Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Reading another board, from some dude that knows a couple of players, I guess he was texting his dad while getting worked on in the locker room. Also, a rumor on the mainboard on Rivals is that he has quit. Quote Link to comment
mmmtodd Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 huskerboard has lost its mind. there's general feel around here like the board has some actual effect and tie to the team. its becoming a tad bit annoying. 1 Quote Link to comment
nepolo7 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 As a coach myself. Sometimes you have to get a players attention. I think that is what Bo was trying to do. He was challenging Taylor to step up and be a leader. We have watched all year how Taylor is a little week in that department. He seems to walk around by himself on the sidelines and has avoided interviews. I was at the ISU game and I noticed how much he was off by himself. The qb needs to be rallying guys and focused on the game. 1 Quote Link to comment
regn47 Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Can I admit that avatar gets me all hot and bothered? Mmmm... Veronica Mars... Thanks for letting me know who that was. I was curious. Quote Link to comment
BigWillie Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Sounds like some wildly speculative lip reading. Honestly coaches yell at players all the time. Especially when they mess up. It happens, players get over it, everything's good. Like Mangino and that showboating KR kid. OK, maybe that's a bad example. Really don't see what the big deal is here. Taylor gotta have thick skin. This is basically 2 years of frustrations that blew up during a game. Martinez has his little ego trips during practice and other times, but him doing it in a game just set Bo off. Do not blame him in the least because this has been a LONG time coming, as I have warned about. 1 Quote Link to comment

I love Bo's intensity, but he borders on crazy at times. Quote Link to comment

It was just very unfortunate that was caught on tv. Hopefully the boys will be ready for CU. Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 I still think Bo went into the game pissed off knowing he was dealing with the same officiating crew for the third time. Martinez picked the wrong time to act out and got blasted for it. Quote Link to comment

It will be interesting to see how he is during the CU game. Quote Link to comment
rationalone Posted November 22, 2010 Share Posted November 22, 2010 Absolutely classless move by "Coach" Bo. Embarrassment to the University. Dropping F Bomb after F Bomb against your starting QB. Horrible for recruiting, also. Who would want to play for this guy? Quote Link to comment

Horrible for recruiting, also. Who would want to play for this guy? A grown man dropping the "F-bomb" in any context is an embarrassment to all grown men. If what he was saying is, in fact, such... well... can we hire an adult for this job? It is reasonable to question Bo's character and maturity -- all along from the time of his hire to now. When hired he seemed a risk to project precisely what we do not want to have connected to our program. As an ambassador of the program, the university and the state... well... it goes w/o saying that Bo needs major, major, major, major improvement. The unfortunate reality is that his reputation is not recoverable in the sense that when one is exposed this way once... well it is almost impossible to redeem ones reputation from that point forward. And.. if TMart said what some assume he said... well he has no respect for Bo (which is perhaps not too surprising, as respect is earned). If this is the case (and it might not be)... but if it is... then NU is in much worse shape as a football program than we think. Quote Link to comment

Who would want to play for this guy? i would, because steel is forged through fire. are you really disappointed in an adult swearing? raspberries! i suppose you do not partake in the devil's nectar, either.

If you truly think men who drop the F bomb are "an embarrassment to all grown men," I shudder to think what your opinion of our armed forces is. Quote Link to comment

No... the military is fine. For me... and this may be me alone... I don't see an appropriate place ever for that kind of thing. That said... I am a Pastor and a Professor and am hyper sensitive towards these things relative to most. I am old school and my bias is revealed in this position... but I see no place for language like that or lack of restraint in any adult leader of anything. Seems inexcusable to me. Certainly, I'd think we would all rather not have that kind of thing associated with how others see NU. Seem reasonable? Quote Link to comment
