Nobody Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fxW4a7fUdbk lolz @ where the video stops.... I think we can all fill in the blanks. If you need them filled in, just know that there are expletives involved....And if we aren't the job that we used to be, then does that mean we wait till its worse? or do we pull the trigger at the end of the season, asap?

NUance Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Husker fans siding with Mark Mays? That can mean only one thing. Armageddon is near. 2 Quote Link to comment
Hercules Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 The idea that Bo isn't coaching for his job this November is absurd. Does he have to win a conference championship? No. He can scrap his way to 8 or 9 wins and live to fight another season (if he wants to... listening to his presser today, it wouldn't surprise me if he left at the end of the season, even if it wasn't for a great job). If he can only get to 6 or 7 wins, it'll get dicey. If they lose out, see ya. Quote Link to comment
Notre Dame Joe Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Holtz really is the sitting coaches public defender. 1 Quote Link to comment
Hayseed Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Nah, a bunch of young players, two good qb's coming up......I think he gets another year. I could say something like 'unless he loses out' as a qualifier but couldn't you say that about any coach? The only thing that would make me think differently is if the admin already had some great coach ready to come in and I doubt that's the case. Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 there is talent to work with on the offense......but OMG.........the defense is horrible and getting worse....I said at the beginning of the season, all I wanted was to see this team make some steady improvement...that has not happened, the PP competition has given many false hope, Minnesota is not a power house, but they bitch slapped our defense like a cheap hooker....we easily stand to lose 2 more games, maybe even 3.........the play and effort we saw after a bye week was pathetic...playing a hurt TM ahead of 2 other competent QB's is horrible coaching decision, Pelini should get a hot poker up his ass for that nonsense....at the very least, you start Armstrong and bring TM in if he fails....the coaching decisions are pathetic, calling a QB draw on 3rd and long and expecting your guy to make it with broken bones in his foot..... 1 Quote Link to comment

Every additional minute with this staff is another minute wasted. I fear, however, that you might be correct. Quote Link to comment
RichS Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 The Huskers have to get better and under Bo nobody is seeing that happen. The key in college football is to win national championships, not just be the status quo. Time for a change and overhaul in Nebraska. 2 Quote Link to comment
WayUpAbove Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 The fact they even did this piece should answer everyones question, Come on Lou, take a look at Pelinis schedules, he's beat no one, and lost to no one. Sure he had Callahan recruits to mask his inability to coach basic fundamentals but his losses are just about as ugly as it gets Quote Link to comment
Dr. Mantis Toboggan Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Funny, when I said this after the UCLA game I had everyone jumping down my throat. I say let Bo finish out the season. His actions on and off the field is more than enough to fire a coach even if he gets to 9 wins (which is not going to happen sadly). Nebraska doesn't need consistency, we need improvement. The boosters need to gather all of their big bucks and maybe sell a private jet or two to get a big time coach at Nebraska (no more experiments!). Eichorst fixed up Miami, now he needs to fix up Nebraska. 1 Quote Link to comment
The Big Red Machine Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 A couple more embarrassing losses is all that it's going to take, IMO. Quote Link to comment

robsker Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 One thing came to mind when I watched this. I feel sorry for Bo. It must be painful for him to have his livelihood debated on national TV. It would be tough to be a public figure in this nation at this time. Imagine how tough it would be for Bo to sit through watching that. Some of the older among those who post here (and maybe some of the younger too) have experienced at their work the hiring of someone who was unqualified for the job. When someone w/o the background experience comes in and are under-qualified, the hiring ends up being painful for everyone --- including the person hired. Bo never was a head coach and had questionable people skills when he was hired --- he was not qualified. When a person is asked to do what they do not have the skill set to do --- then they (and everyone) will struggle. Bo was thrust into a situation where he had no business being. And unfortunately for him (and Husker fans) it did not work out. For Bo, for NU... the merciful thing to do is end this quietly at seasons end. It must be agonizing for Bo... and I earnestly feel for him. He was asked to do what he could not do. He never should have been hired. Quote Link to comment
TheSker Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 ESPN's job is to get ratings and advertising revenue. I'm not concerned about their coaching decision banter. Although maybe we could list our top 10 candidates and do an episode of Survivor-Lincoln to decide who our next 6 year coach will be. 1 Quote Link to comment
Touchdown Tommie Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 The biggest question I have is what coach will come here...that has credentials? I can tell you that if I was a coach with credentials and the previous coach was fired after 9-10 games each year I would definitely hesitate. Davis is correct that the Nebraska job is not what it used to be. Is this because of the past three coaches (Solich, Callahan, and Pelini)? I would be good with Bo staying IF he looks at bringing in a big name or an up and coming name for the d-coordinator. Watching them yesterday live was embarrassing...the Gopher fans around me were in shock how bad we were playing. What is funny though, is most of the Gopher fans see this as a HUGE upset. The conversations I was having yesterday during and after the game shed some light on how bad our defense is. Anyways, back to my initial question...give some names that would be legitimate candidates that would come here to coach. Quote Link to comment
