Count 'Bility Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Resgining wouldnt surprise me. I can see the apathy and lostness with all staff guys except Mark Phillip. I could see it happening. With him having the mindset of "im too old for this sh#t". Remember. He took the job on a whim without even visiting here. Remember. In bigtime college football, programs almost recruit the coaches. Convince the coaches to come. You can bet most coaches evaluate things like facilities, talent, fans, media, etc. But Riley took it on a whim in a day without even a visit. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yeah Riley was just staring into space when they showed him on the sidelines. Had the same look I had on my face watching the game. Most of his core AC guys are pretty old they might be ready to call it a day. Bray/Langsdorf will land on their feet no problem. Quote Link to comment
ScottyIce Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 So we all know that pressure from boosters usually helps to put heat on the administration, but how do we fans (the little guys) let the board know we are not happy? I'm thinking of a social media petition, an organized protest, or something along those lines, but not really sure what is most effective. And the frustration of NU fans goes well beyond just this season. I'm petitioning to whoop your ass. 1 Quote Link to comment
Saunders Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 You take 5 starters off of any team, let it lone them being the best QB, the best running back, the best all purpose guy, two starting defensive players, see what happens to any team. No excuses, we lost, and Riley will feel the heat for it, but this crap needs to stop. Support your team, yea there are some not playing to the level you want or I want, but I think that all goes back to recruiting. I think some of the kids that get recruited are lower due to heart, not just athletic ability. I have always wondered about it, don't really know. Motor is a big statement about some kids, yet never mentioned about others. Very hard day for all involved. Wish we would run a little bit more, but thought Fyfe made some great passes. Hit receivers in stride. He looks more like a QB than Tommy. Teams lose starters all the time and don't go from a decent/good to worst in the conference. Quote Link to comment

How can you POSSIBLY compliment Fyfe after he single handedly lost us that game. You types of people are the reason we are in this mess because you SUPPORT this dumpster fire of a coaching staff. 10 point loss is now being blown out? Youre f'ing joking, right? It was 42-16 at one point. Losing by 10 to Purdue when you score 21 points in garbage time against a team running out the clock is a disgrace to bad teams. It is completely unacceptable to any football team that is trying to be relevant. How can you trail one of the worst offensive teams in football by 26 points? MR apologists should be writing speeches for politicians. What the f#*k are you reading? The guy I quoted asked when a 10 point loss is considered a blowout and I enlightened him we were down 3+ scores at one point. Quote Link to comment
psulionstorm07 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I'm still amazed with the amount of Nebraska fans with this "Boo how we can't do anything so why even try" Debbie downer attitude. Most have turned to realize they have to do something to save the program they love, but ffs there is so much you can do. Organize an orderly march to the AD and pack up his office for him if you have to. Quote Link to comment

VectorVictor Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Mike Riley will still be the coach a year from now. Perhaps, if he drags out his NES and Tecmo Bowl. Quote Link to comment

I'll never understand why when we score points at the end trying to catch up it's because the other team "let up". In the same vain, I don't understand why the same line of thinking isn't applied to our guys when the other teams scores some at the end trying to catch up. Fans are fickle beings I suppose....

The Maudfather Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 People attempting to justify this game as an actual 10 point "close loss" didn't watch the same game that I did. 3 Quote Link to comment
desertshox Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 People attempting to justify this game as an actual 10 point "close loss" didn't watch the same game that I did. so 55-45 doesnt equal 10 to you? Quote Link to comment
C N Red Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Riley wont resign. Coaches have egos. I guarantee he believes he can turn this around. The problem...he needs to show his ego. Show players if you dont do your job you can be replaced!! Lots of the starters i feel dont fear losing their jobs. Put some gall damn fear in them!!!! Aaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh. Quote Link to comment
