Bo Pelini was in Lincoln today November 24th wearing a Nebraska Hat. Believe me or not this is coming from my buddy lives in Omaha who is a Correctional Officer and he was in Lincoln for the holiday for family. Well he stopped by Memorial Stadium because of what happened today and called me to tell me that he saw Bo Pelini wearing a Husker hat. Go ahead and make fun of me, but i wouldn't have posted this if I didn't think that it wasn't true.

I told him that i needed pictures to confirm this and he told me that he didn't have one with him. I was thinking to myself that this couldn't be true because LSU had a game late last night but its weird that the LJS did this story http://www.journalstar.com/huskerextra/foo...d9103910515.txt and that ESPN talked about Bo Pelini would be the best choice for head coach at Nebraska during the halftime show for the Boston College vs Miami (FL) game.

I'm not a fan of this Rumor board for the fact of all of this nonsense going around for the past 3-4 weeks and I wouldn't in my life see myself starting a topic like this. I believe my friend 110% and he would never make this up for he two is a die-hard Nebraska fan and he's not even rooting for Bo Pelini as Head Coach. I know that I'm a Bo Pelini supporter but I have Paul Johnson very high on my list for the HC job for Nebraska.

If i'm wrong i'll just have to eat my own words and to inform you all that i'm very sorry for posting this thread and I'll be a man about it, to responsibility for this post. But like I said that I wouldn't have posted this if i didn't believe my friend but i do believe my friend 110%. But like TO said today that he'll let us know in a few days on who the new coach will be and maybe he started the interviews today. But i don't know, it'll be interesting for the next few days and I didn't say that Bo Pelini is the new HC, I'm just saying that my buddy spotted him in Lincoln today wearing a Nebraska Hat.

Pellini would certainly fix the defense. He's been known to hold opponents to under 55 points at times.

FIRE PELINI...........just getting an early start...... :clap

Seriously. Why the hell would we want a DC that doesn't know how to stop the run? Hasn't everyone been calling us to fire a DC like that most of the season? I just don't see any reason why employing Pelini would be of any benefit.

Before the Arkansas game, LSU was fourth in the nation against the run.

In 2006, LSU was 14th against the run.

In 2005, LSU was 6th against the run.

In 2004, Oklahoma was 6th against the run.

In 2003, Nebraska was 24th against the run.

I hope you were being sarcastic, because otherwise your statement was terribly ill-informed.

It was meant to mirror the knee-jerk, sweeping, uneducated statements by many individuals that pervade this board(and probably those that frequent most boards). He had a bad game, this guy sucks and should probably be fired, rah rah rah and such. Yes, I realize Pelini has done well as a DC there, maybe he should be doing better since they have top 5 talent year in and year out, but his team performs. If he ends up head coach, I will support it, but not be thrilled about it because I don't really like him as a person and some of the crap he pulled.

Just because Pelini may not be able to stop the run, doesn't mean his DC wouldn't. I have to think he would hire a DC and not pull that Callahan crap of having an OC but not allowing him to call the plays.

I hear what you're saying bro, but isnt that like an oxymoron? Definately a contradictory. Thought that was the only legit point of hiring him.

Either I'm slow, the coffee hasn't kicked in yet or I'm just plain stupid :hmmph but I'm not catching the oxy-moronic part that you mention :dunno
