Hedley Lamarr Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Sweet, I was wondering when we'd get SE's aquarium guy in here. Thanks for the info. I prefer milk man Quote Link to comment
Hannibal Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 SE wanted to can Bo last year. You can thank TO and the BOR for the blockI have nothing but respect for Osbourne, but both of his picks to run this program have been flops. Sometimes greatness is about knowing your own limitations. Love TO and the hiring of 2 crappy football coaches doesn't tarnish his contributions to NU at all to me Nor for me. I'm not sure he should have much involvement in the hiring of a third coach though. Quote Link to comment

Hire a search firm and conduct interviews etc. Then hire Mark Hudspeth 2 Quote Link to comment
Count 'Bility Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 SE wanted to can Bo last year. You can thank TO and the BOR for the block Osborne didnt necessarily block it. He just contacted Eichorst early saturday morning and told him he HAD to make a statement one way or another before the state destroyed itself from the inside out. The main 3 boosters of substance save Bo at that point. And I've heard a rough rumor (R U M O R) that one jumped ship after last week and one was wavering. While it appears, and I as well think, that Eichorst appeared to be somewhat incompetent about this last year, I put my faith in him this year, with significant more time under his belt here, to make the right call now. Obviousl with the support of the right folks. Quote Link to comment

Hoping that rumor is true Quote Link to comment

Hoping that rumor is true I believe it is. Bo's demeanor at the post game presser last week as it became pretty clear that meeting those benchmarks was not gonna happen says it all. I pointed it out then and i stand by it. Bo looked defeated last week. He looked flustered but in ways, almost apathetic at times today. And in the post game today, he sounded extremely defensive and apathetic as well. he's gotta know. He sees what's happening on the field. Quote Link to comment

TheSker Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 The actual real question is what are the current conversations between Tom and Howard. Quote Link to comment
Hedley Lamarr Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 The actual real question is what are the current conversations between Tom and Howard. Howard needs to realize how poorly he is at judging coaches. Doc Sadler just needs more time right Howie? Quote Link to comment
NUpolo8 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Seriously, does he strike anyone here as someone that will step forward and make a decisive decision? He strikes me more as a lap dog. You aren't going to hear boo from this guy until he gets instructions from his handlers. Yeah, the idea of him being in charge of hiring someone really scares me. I'm only afraid he won't pull the trigger. With his background the first guy he talks to on advice for a coaching hire is Barry Alvarez. The decision on this will go through Osborne. No it won't.

Shaw has shown he can win with someone else's recruits other than that the jury is out IMO Quote Link to comment

As a single decision, no......but the likes of HH and Dan will know where Tom stands......actually they already do since they communicate regularly. Quote Link to comment
