It's bad enough that Callahan was a Nebraska HC and now Riley. We can't do anything about those two but we sure as hell can keep those names off any HC list. If Les Miles is willing to step in as interim HC fine, otherwise leave Riley in place. Riley needs to deal with this mess he created.
Exactly right. I'm not delusional and going to say that the talent is there to compete at the top levels, but there is enough talent to be competitive. This team is anything but competitive. Everything I hear from Riley is that he says he needs more years to bring in recruits. How about he coaches the current kids and be competitive in ball games.
I wonder if Bo's 'toxic' culture has had a deeper impact than I expected. I have friends that are very anti Bo/pro Riley. Whenever a Bo recruit did something wrong he always linked it back to Bo's toxicity. I.E. Wilbon not playing because he 'wasn't a good pass blocker' and Gerry not going to class. I wonder if people were so anti Bo that they disconnected themselves from the reality that we are currently in, hanging onto any thread of hope that Riley will be 'the guy' just because it got rid of the toxic environment.
He did ask tactfully in the post game presser is Riley believes he will be here next year or not. Riley said he doesn't think about it and just continues to coach and recruit.
