1st Half Game Thread!

Seriously, can we give it a rest.
Bo and Riley WERE BOTH TERRIBLE COACHING HIRES. Different reasons why they suck, but they both suck.
NU has the resources/tradition to average 8 wins a year just with average coaching.
Oh I thought you should just endlessly bitch and whine.... my bad. I will let the experts here decide

Bo and Riley WERE BOTH TERRIBLE COACHING HIRES.

CORRECTION: Solich, Callahan, Pelini, and Riley were terrible hires. The first was a high school coach with no control over his assistants, the second was a pro O-line coach with no concept how to run a college program, the third was a hot-head D-line coach with no idea how to recruit, and the fourth is a 70-year old nice guy who has never won anywhere he has coached. And the salaries have just gotten bigger and bigger and bigger, with worse results.

Bo was not a horrible hire, Bo just fell apart after we moved to the Big Ten. From 08-12 Bo has us in the conference title game 3 of 5 years, and shared the division title in the one other year and 2nd in the other. Bo needed to move on, no argument there, but to call him a horrible hire or to lump him with Riley is wrong.

So Bo must've exceeded your expectations by averaging 9 games a year then.
 
Solich was Tom's pick, Callahan was in a super bowl and Pelini was a on a National Championship staff. A reason why you might hire them, somebody tell me why Riley was even looked at. And don't say because he is a nice guy.
