I must be one of the old guys on the board. Tom Osborne at one point showed plenty of emotion on the sideline. I can remember a number of games when Tom went off on officials. In the 1982 Missouri game it was only Tom's headset (and the cord attached) that kept him from running onto the field. Watch "A Day in the Life of Nebraska Football." Several times during the 97 Oklahoma game Tom was chewing on players and officials. This was in an one sided game. How many times did we used to hear about the "red veiners" at halftime. Tom Osborne knew when and where to show emotion. Just because he is basically a quiet individual, and preceived as somewhat boring in the media. It is not reason to say he was not emotional. I think he could motivate an individual or a team just as much as any "emotional leader" around. I would throw Tom's passion put into coaching football up against just about anyone.
