NEBRASKA FOOTBALL: Judgment Day

I figured I had read it wrong. Thanks, guys.

I understood it wrong as well. I'll go back to my hole now.

That Pelini would add that coda makes you wonder – just what did chancellor Harvey Perlman and athletic director Tom Osborne say to him? I suspect the message was forceful. Unvarnished. Here's what we – and you – will stand for. This isn't, after all, a Banana Republic private school, but a public institution that just pulled up the the academic big boy table of the CIC and the Big Ten. Perlman is a cold-blooded killer, as his adversaries – and Missouri - will attest. He has a dogged toughness and ego to match Bo's, frankly. That's how he dragged NU to the Big Ten against long, unlikely odds. He's not a typical academician.

 

Isn't Perlman the genius who canned Frank/Bo to bring in Callahan? Then gave Callahan a big raise and contract extension?

 

If so, I say he's a cold-blooded academic moron.
