I don't really feel like writing anything, but I pride tradition so I'll go ahead and continue it since I have time and the opportunity. To begin with, there's nothing left to say. The Callahan crowd has about as much of a defense as Hitler would have at Nurnberg. Pederson has brought a virus to the program and we have become the Sick Man of Football. Get this, at half time in Memorial Stadium the seats were emptying out. AT HALF TIME.
I think Pederson will very soon be in a position where he will be forced to hire someone he doesn't want or resign as AD. It is directly his decisions which have put us in this position. We fired a man who went 9-3. It wasn't a pretty season, but he had a young staff with some talent on it. This is what pisses me off, too. Solich did everything he was asked, had a decent season by comparison to what followed, coached a team that won a bowl game without him, and we still kicked him out. Look, bottom line: he was one of us; he was a Husker. He coached under TO, and even if he wasn't the best coach in the world, he was still a part of the family. You stay within the family. I agree that the time would have come where Solich would have to step down as head coach. But to hijack the program and give it to some outsider who doesn't understand Nebraska football, who doesn't understand our Blackshirt tradition, who doesn't understand who we are––it's a sacrilege.
I would have taken 9-3 seasons for five more years with a coach who loved our tradition over the piece of sh#t we handed it over to. And now Pederson must do the right thing or get his a$$ out of the way. We need to give this program back to the old blood before we lose the ability to do so. The only thing that can save us now is a return to our roots and a rememberance of our true identity. We are an option team built on players who love Nebraska and love to play for Nebraska. Our state isn't the state of big business. It's the state of honest people who love football.
The saddest part of today for me was my complete lack of emotion towards what was happening. I knew we were going to get killed last Saturday; I was merely waiting for it to happen. This is indeed a sad, sad day in Nebraska history. Our program is sick to the point of death. Blood transfusion. That is all that will help us now.
