Is it just me, or is anyone else happy with Callahan's response.

Asked if he’d consider resigning, Callahan said: “No.”

I don't care if he is the worst coach in the world. He has a good recruiting class coming in, and any other response would just make him lose those recruits as well as probably having some kids on the team consider transferring. That is what would happen given the uncertainty.

I think he is, and should be here to stay throughout the season (at least he should be, if his boss thinks he should be fired, a different scenoario) for the kids he brought into this program. He HAS to stay committed to them up until the point he announces his resignation, if he does. He should then do it through proper channels (to the AD), so management can reassure the troops of what will happen next.

Do I think he is a good coach - no. I think he is an excellent recruiter and a good coordinator but not a good coach. Do I want him to say "Well, I'll consider resigning if this happens or that happens or if I don't like the new AD", HELL NO, not in a million years.

I noticed the same thing. I thought how telling that was. You could tell that he fully believes his days are numbered.

 
Kevin Kugler said he was just wearing a brown sweater and it was really no big deal to not be wearing Husker gear.

No I didn't watch the press conference...was he seriously not wearing any Husker gear? That'd be a first.

Maybe Pederson raided his closet.

I haven't watched every PC, but I've watched quite a few, and he's always been wearing Nebraska gear. Maybe it was his quiet way of protesting the Pederson firing.

For his sake, I sure hope not. While he's quietly protesting Pedey's firing, I'm sure there's Regents, etc. that are quietly planning his "resignation."

 
What worried me more is the fact that he said he's been helping the with the defense the last few weeks and they still play like they have.

 
What worries me more is how much manlove is there going on with Pud and BC? BC's probably just lost without his manlovin from Pud.

 


CALLY MET WITH PEARLMAN THIS MORNING BEFORE THE PC... AND THEN SHOWS UP NOT WEARING ANY GEAR AFTERWARDS.... DURING THE PRESS CONFERENCE HE RESPONDS WITH A RESOUNDING "NO" WHEN ASKED ABOUT THE CHANCES OF HIM QUITTING... ALMOST AS IF THIS WAS NOT THE FIRST TIME HE HAD BEEN ASKED TO DO THIS TODAY... HE IS GONNA MAKE THE NEW A.D. FIRE HIM...

 
You know, he's very calculating and exact in what he says, meaning he always gives himself wiggle room. Maybe "no" meant "No, I'm not considering it (because I've already decided)."

 
No, I agree with the OP. I have tons of respect for Callahan, he's been a class act here and a great leader.
