"Write About That S#!t!"

[Red Five]

Write about needing our QB to have the best game of his career to beat a 5 win Purdue team?

[HuskerNBigD]

Reminds me of the Pelini era, after the OT win in Iowa. 

[Red Five]

So which recruiting guy was this?  Vaughn leads it, right?  Doesn’t seem like a Wilhite thing, so McShane?  Or someone lower on the totem pole?

The comment was directed to the media.  Not sure how you're getting a shot at the fans out of it.  

 

I'm not really surprised at the comment to be honest.  The staff knows they're on the way out.  If you feel you need to take a shot back at someone you don't like, you're running out of time to do it.  If I were a recruiting assistant knowing that I'm on my last legs and Barfy or Chatelain walked by after calling for my job, the thought of telling them to stick their head where the sun doesn't shine would probably cross my mind.

At 4-4, I am glad this random recruiting assistant feels good crowing about a last minute, single point victory over Purdue

Sounds like that "Us vs Them" thing still exists.

I believe this always exists in a program. It's just a matter of how much steam it has at any given time. When things are going well there isn't a lot to complain about. We all know what happens when things aren't going so well.

I think Mike Riley is a better coach than Dick Chatelain is a writer. To avoid any confusion, I never thought Riley should have been hired in the first place, and actually had to look up who he was when hires, then said wtf hire a .500 coach.

Sounds like a knock on high school football coaches.  Some people like the impact they can have on HS athletes and don't want to move their family every 3 years.

Which is silly, there are some ridiculously good high school coaches out there.

Who knew a 1 point victory over Purdue would elicit such pride?
