Draw the line in the sand and pick a side.

Hopefully we get some good debate in here.

Mods, feel free to clean this up as you see fit.

I think SE sees in Riley the missing piece that gets us over the hump. I don't think he thinks Reiley is a far superior coach, just that whatever he saw Bo lacking and tripping him up, he thinks Riley has.

 
I hope he does well, but I still think this was an awful move. The more I see, I'm convinced it is an awful move.

He has never achieved success anywhere he's ever been. Yeah, Oregon State was awful. So was Kansas State, and Snyder surpassed anything Riley can even dream of doing.

His single best record was 10-4. His teams these past few years have been absolutely awful.

He's nearing the end of his career. His old team's fans were happy to be rid of him.

Count me as a "nay" and the new Polo.

Meh Polo was logical with his negativity, you're trashing this hire before Riley has even landed in Lincoln

WELL I FINALLY LOST LESS THAN FOUR GAMES IN A SEASON SO YOU'RE WELCOME
 
If he proves me wrong, I'll retract, but I won't give him the benefit of the doubt, because based on his record, he doesn't deserve it.

Fan base has been too divided for too long. I didnt want this hire but I want this man to do well.

Sorry guys I forgot that Oregon St. and Nebraska were equal in terms of facilities, talent, tradition, support, etc. And in that case I guess Bo Pelini did more than Riley could ever dream of. Please accept my apology, I will be waiting with you for Riley's resignation letter. C'mon, I am a Chargers fan and had to deal with Riley having a 1-15 season (not his fault management forced him to pick Ryan Leaf even though he knew that he'd be a bust), and even I support this hire.

 
If you're a Chargers fan and you say that...well, that says something.

Also this talk of Orgernon (sp) on the staff would mean dynamite recruiting...

 
This guy is going to prove all the doubters wrong - great hire IMO. Wait until you see the staff - I am 100% confident it will be heads and shoulders above Beck/JP
