cornstar Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 It is a damn good thing that there was no message boards during the late 70's and early 80's. Some of you idiots would have run TO out of town. It was bad enough that the papers tried to do it.Tom Osborne didn't start out 14 and 11 with some of the most embarrassing losses in school history including a losing season.People need to quit insulting Osborne and stop that comparison yesterday. The same comparisons were made between TO and Bo. And TO and Callahan. And TO and Frank. At least the comparisons to Bo and Frank made sense, from a wins perspective. And the comparisons to Riley make sense if you look at them from a personality and process point of view. Any comparison makes sense to the person making it. It's clearly a comparison based on on-field success, and it needs to stop. It's embarrassing, really. Quote Link to comment

BigRedBuster Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Comparing any coach to TO is pointless. Comparing any two coaches who start coaching at Nebraska over 40 years apart is pointless. Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 The comparisons work because they're rooted in the commonality of the fanbase being ungrateful, hyper-critical, ignorant and lame towards our active coaches. Quote Link to comment

That is about the only thing remotely that can be compared to the two coaches and situations....and even then, it's a stretch with coaches now having to deal with the internet and social media. 1 Quote Link to comment
Hunter94 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 no one fears our offense, or even respects it........they only play the fourth quarter. Quote Link to comment
