Eric the Red Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Dailey says he wishes best for Huskers Associated Press OMAHA, Neb. - If much-maligned former Nebraska quarterback Joe Dailey feels vindicated by the Cornhuskers' struggles on offense, he isn't saying. Dailey, now at North Carolina, declined an Associated Press interview request. But he said in an e-mail that he wishes the best for the Huskers. "From what I hear they are 3-0, and from that I know that they have done enough to make sure their side of the scoreboard has more points than the opposing teams'," Dailey wrote. "I hope they continue to win football games for the sake of the university, players and the coaching staff." Recruited by former Nebraska coach Frank Solich to play in the triple-option offense, Dailey was the starter when coach Bill Callahan unveiled the West Coast offense last year. He completed 49.4 percent of his passes for 2,025 yards and 17 touchdowns but was intercepted 19 times. He was the target of much criticism as the Huskers went 5-6. Dailey transferred to North Carolina after dropping to fourth on the depth chart last spring. He must sit out this season and will be a junior in eligibility next season. Quote Link to comment

StuckinChicago Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 I for one never thought that Joe was a bad guy, and under a different offense, he might have thrived here, but i always felt bad that he had to take the brunt of the criticism that he never really deserved. He did the best that he was capable of with what he had, and i never held any grudges. Did I want him to be the starting quarterback of my west coast offense...no, but did i want to run him out of town or talk bad about his character...absolutely not. Good luck Joe.

Red Snow Sword: Husker Sentinel Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 I always liked Joe. Hope things work out for him down the road. Quote Link to comment
huskerdavo Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Good for Joe! He was caught at NU in a time of transition and he got the brunt of it. He was never supposed to be a WC QB and it showed. He is in a better place now away from our team J/k good luck at NC Why didnt he transfer to Ohio? Quote Link to comment
NU fan in Denver Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 That's a good ?. FS's offense could use a jump start. They offered him a scholarship didn't they? Best of luck to Joe. One more question...How does a guy go from starter to fourth string without playing a game? Wouldn't it be nice just to have him here as a backup? We have NO experience behind ZT. If he goes down we might as well throw Beck to the wolves and play for next year. Quote Link to comment

Maybe if you could learn to spell , and actually add something of significance to the board instead of taking ill-placed pot-shots at me, we could have a decent conversation Grow up.

roadrat Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 Good luck Joe. Come and teach the WCO to the rest of the team since you played it for a year and you know it better than anyone here. Quote Link to comment
