If he goes 8-4 he gets another year, period. You dont fire a coach who won 8 games after only 3 years. Especially if we go to Indy. Nebraska has a recent track history of canning head coaches who have done better in a season. So you bring him back for next year and we get maybe 8-9 wins again then left saying it is justified to fire him now after 4 complete years. Do we want to start the rebuilding process now, or in 1,2,3 years from now? For some miraculous reason we are considered to be in a rebuild season right now in Riley's 3rd year. This is the year new coaches at programs should be hitting their stride and showing major improvements. Instead Nebraska has taken a huge step back. 1 Quote Link to comment

Toe Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Only thing that concerns me is that potential AD hires might see this as a knee-jerk reaction firing. Even if it wasn't done Monday morning, it's still basically right after an embarrassing loss. Quote Link to comment

Exactly and there are coaches on record saying that firing a 9 win coach is insane and they would never go to a school that does that. And also every national media member thinks we are delusional for firing a 9 win coach so it is terrible publicity. 1 Quote Link to comment

"Defend" wasn't quite right. But you apparently did forgive him. I rescind my notion to can Eichorst and Riley, as they are now going for Black Friday. This has been my only complaint of them.

It had been mentioned before, but it was more piggy backing the scenario the two prior posts were discussing. So calm down princess 1 Quote Link to comment

You can interpret that any way you want but he is saying he didnt accept the job bc of that reason. 2 Quote Link to comment

The guy then stepped up and said he was wrong on Black Friday. I have compassion and liked that he said sorry and changed stance. Im not vouching for him keeping his job, just said I liked that he changed when he found out everyone loves Black Friday games. Quote Link to comment
