JTrain Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 (mod note: two threads about 'is this a coaching issue' merged. In this thread: discuss whether or not this is a coaching issue ) It is certainly a coaching issue when... ...in mid-November, your report card for a big game is as follows: Offense: F Defense: C Special Teams: F Discipline: F Very bad signs. Not calling for Bo's firing but there are some serious coaching issues here that now have to be completely obvious to everyone. I am one of the biggest koolaid swilling fans you'll meet. I wasn't turned off by this game until we got down 28 points in the 4th quarter. Wins like Penn State and Michigan State and Washington all make it seem like we've to the players on the team that can make it happen and coaches that can call a good game. But games like NW, Wisconsin and Michigan today make it seem like we have high school coaches and mediocre players at best. Please give me your honest, un-biased opinions on where are problems lie. Logical, specific please, I'm not interested in hearing generalities like "Pelini sucks", etc. As hard as it may be right now, approach this discussion from a positive aspect.

Husker_N_Texas Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 So before the bashing starts, in my opinion this is not Pelini's issue today. This is on the players not being focused and not playing fundamental football. At the end of the day, Bo will take the blame, but I put this on the players. Quote Link to comment

Husker66 Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 seriously? its on the entire program.... Quote Link to comment
HuskerfaninOkieland Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 I agree. I like Bo...I like what he's done post-Callahan, but these inconsistencies are really starting to annoy me. Quote Link to comment

Hard to believe this is the team that beat M State, and pulled a massive come back with tOSU... Absolutely sick right now... Quote Link to comment

DSMHusker1 Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 At least Corso dropped an F bomb live on Gameday......Just sayin............ At this point it's all i've got Quote Link to comment
knapplc Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Bottom line is that, despite what Bo says, he is not a disciplined coach, and his staff and team reflect that. Some games they plan well, practice well, hold each other accountable and play well. Other games.... not so much. Quote Link to comment
Blackshirtsguru Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 All the above. Our team is a huge mess right now! I am beginning to think that Bo and his staff have peaked here at Nebraska and are starting to decline. Quote Link to comment

It'sNotAFakeID Posted November 19, 2011 Share Posted November 19, 2011 Inconsistency and youth. We don't play well against a mobile QB because we don't have the talent/scheme to stop one. Look at the teams that have beat us this year: Wisconsin [Russell Wilson, Kain Colter, and Denard Robinson] They are just tough to stop. And when we can't match them punch for punch, it's tough to win. Quote Link to comment
