Do you really think that after nearly 15 years of knee jerk reactions by the athletic department AND the BOR's, that fans are going to continue to donate and spend $? There is an end to the gravy train. Quote Link to comment

Do you see Nebraska trending UPwards? 1 win (which they were very fortunate to get) in the last 5 tries. Someone said in another thread that they were 11 yards away from being 0-3. I see a trend, but not one that includes asking a coach back for year. Quote Link to comment

There is an end to the gravy train. I'm not sure of your point. Are you saying donations go down if we fire Riley? I might argue the other way. My personal opinion is that Solich was the only knee jerk reaction. 1 Quote Link to comment
Garry G Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 5 wins is the high mark. We are that bad. Rutgers is winning 51-0 right now, all be it to morgan st. It shows they dont let down. Purdue is putting it on a weak mizzou but again taking care of business. Minnesota. ..taking care of business.... Quote Link to comment

Give him a blank check for assistants, and let's get this damn thing turned around. You just said what a lot of fans are thinking. GBR!!! Quote Link to comment

For one thing, we can never quite catch up with recruiting if keep firing guys. We're going to have to ride Riley down. Quote Link to comment

krc1995 Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Heard on the Big Red Reaction, that in three years of Riley (didn't hear the amount of games) that we have trailed at half 16 times. Wow. Quote Link to comment

Of course, this isn't ideal...but then again, no one held Eichorst accountable for not actually doing a legitimate coaching search...so... 1 Quote Link to comment
