Red Five Posted September 19, 2017 Author Share Posted September 19, 2017 3 minutes ago, Mavric said: I think it will be a pretty obvious referendum on Eichorst given that looming bonus. If they don't trust him, he'll be gone by late November or however early it has to be to avoid paying that. Then Riley will be fired after the Iowa game and the new AD gets to hire the new football coach. If Eichorst gets fired in November, there will not be a new AD yet to hire the fb coach. If we want a new AD to hire a football coach at the end of the season, Eichorst needs to be fired yesterday. Quote Link to comment

We know what will happen against Ohio State. Loosing to Wisc in what could be a blow out if trends continue, will be enough. However, if we falter against Rutgers or Ill prior to that - enough has been seen to know the end result. I think most fans feel where this is leading. I just hope the top brass see it too. We may like Mr Nice Guy, but he ain't taking us to any dance. Time to face the pain of the surgery and get it over. I hope they decide to do it right this time around. Like they say - Nothing personal, it is just business. Quote Link to comment

Fru Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Rutgers wins by 14+ this weekend. Illinois wins by 21+ the following weekend. Eichorst is shown the door Sunday morning New AD is hired end of November/early December. Riley gets one more season in 2018. Giving the new AD ample time to find the right coach. Riley gets axed after a 1-3 start. Diaco is named interim. New coach is introduced in December of next year. Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I must be in a minority in the Husker fan base. I love my father and I love TO (for different reasons). But, I don't want my father making business decisions anymore and I don't want TO making football coaching decisions anymore. I also honestly don't believe Frost is the answer to our problems. 5 Quote Link to comment
Apathy Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Someone better step up, do the right thing and take the Football program more seriously and fix this dumpster fire and SE is NOT the guy to do that. 1 Quote Link to comment

Herbie95 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Insert Alabama, Ohio State, Notre Dame, Tennessee, LSU, Michigan, Oklahoma, Texas, USC, Florida State, Miami or some other similar program into the sentence instead of Nebraska. If they hire a new coach and said coach goes 4-8 (if we are lucky) in year three after inheriting a program that averaged only 4 losses a year for seven straight years what happens? Of course the answer is give him a fourth year so he can go 3-9 right? 1 Quote Link to comment
BigRedBuster Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Let me throw this out there.....because as unlikely as it seems....it's still possible (insert "so you say we still got a chance gif") What happens if we go out and win the west this year? All of us assume this season is going to go off the rails and we are barely going to win any more games. I'm in that group. However, stranger things have happened. What do you do then? 1 Quote Link to comment
Herbie95 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Joe Moglia is currently taking a medical sabbatical--doesn't sound like it's life threatening however he's at that age where recovery take longer. I do like the idea of him running anything however he might just want to be a coach given he's already been and left high level executive management. 1 Quote Link to comment
Herbie95 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Then you put Riley in the Pat Fitzgerald group that is able to grind out a season and win game people didn't think you could. He would obviously still have a job for 2018. Quote Link to comment

FrantzHardySwag Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Good lord, this thread has given me an anxiety attack just thinking about what a clusterf**k this athletic department could be. In all likelihood we would be hiring a new AD, football coach and basketball coach within the same 12 month period. 1 Quote Link to comment

The Athletic Department has been a cluster-eff for a number of years. 2 Quote Link to comment
