17 schools in 33 years. That means that he was at a school an average of 1.94 years. Eight of the schools, he was at only a year. Maybe he is simply nomadic, or some of these other schools and coaching staffs knew something the Nebraska does not. Any way you look at it, his track record seems a little sketchy.

elmo needs to go and his comments are just another reason why. He is an idiot and I did not think he was the right one for the job to start with.

 
Who brings up Woody Hayes anymore? Jeez Louise, this does not make sense on any level. Personally, I'm a "bottom line" kind of guy. If this guy plays better than that guy, play him! Bottom line. This antiquated type of ?reasoning? does not fly anymore. I wonder what he thought of USC's TRUE FRESHMAN center blowing Suh off the line 90% of the time.

They better get to liking playing underclassmen, or they will be looking for yet another job. I think Callahan is smart enough to recognize where the problems lie. I hope he is smart enough to do something about it.

 
a couple weeks ago, i had a post about Coz that interviewed one of his old players. in the article the former linebacker said maybe the game has passed him by. i think this confirms it. now his assistants are spewing his rhetoric from a guy who coached 20 years ago.

I'm surprised he didn't say "3 and out" was over rated. I have never heard a Nebraska coach former or present say any thing along the lines he seems to believe in. Might just be a reason why he moves around a lot.

GBR!!! :bonez

 
That was probably one of the worst comments I have ever heard a coach make. I hope to god him and Coz are gone next season! No wonder our defensive backs suck so bad! They have a guy trying to teach them that has his head up his arse! :angry:
