Bo Pelini vs Mike Riley
- Thread starter MAR DE ROJO
- Start date
This bothers me. Youre pretty much sayinge hes not gonna win, and your mind is already made up that he will leave this place rich with talent. Couldnt most cosches do that? I mean bo was a terrible recruiter so most cosches would do better. Couldnt we have hired someone who could upgrade the talent and still...win and compete for championships? Theres still time but it sounds like even his supporters have gone full defense mode. I can see it now...."he was never hired ro win!" "The success of coach B is due to riley!" Etc. why is it so much to ask for a coach who can win and fix the program...at nebraska? Maybe riley will.
(Agree with points on Bo.)
Mike Riley is a complete head coach, but will have to build his program, one with more options and traditions, than Oregon State.
Bo Pelini is a head case, who was clearly immature for the job in Lincoln.
YSU is a better fit, in his home state of Ohio.
Best wishes to both of them.
In other news, former Texas OC Greg Davis has retired after five seasons in the Big Ten. The Big Ten just got a little better to view.
P.J. Fleck announced a new rowing program for the University of Minnesota Football team.
Kevin Wilson is in Columbus for a new OC rehab program that will seek more balance in Urban Meyer's lack of patience in using the running game offense.

The answer is both are FCS level coaches. Riley needs his 5 years, but by the end of this year if we were sure, we'd know and be in agreement - like the respective fan bases for Chryst, Shaw, Harbaugh, Petersen, etc
I am not saying that, so you can become unbothered. I expect the staff to do better each year and I think 2017 will be a whole different animal with a QB suited to the offense, fewer holes, more depth, and better OLine. What I am saying is if it doesn't work out, we won't be left with critical holes, little depth and poor attitudes when HCMR leaves.
Now that is politically incorrect on this board. Hell, you might get banned for that. The thought police are going to crucify you.
Bo Peep had seven years to do something...anything...other than beat up on Little Sisters of the Poor. He couldn't do it. Plus he was a world-class prick the whole time. Thus he was rightfully fired. What is difficult to figure out there?
Not saying Riley is the right guy, but Bo was basically Frank Solich with bad manners and a drugged-up trainwreck brother.

Problem is we are not better off than with Bo. Many of us knew that the day Riley was announced. Now we just drift farther into mediocrity. Thanks Eichorst.
Yes, at ohio not nebraska, while kw has one at nebraska so pot meet kettle.
I simply meant pelini is not as good a cosch as solich.
I am a big time supporter of the police, don't get me wrong, but that was a chickens$%# bust. He wasn't driving, just pulled over, passed out with the car in park and the motor running. Back in the day, the police would have just called a cab.
AROUND 9:45 on the evening of Nov. 26, 18-year veteran Athens (Ohio) police officer Krishea Osborne was ending her night shift and driving home when she noticed an SUV facing the wrong way on a one-way street. And still moving. She approached the vehicle and found Ohio University football coach Frank Solich "slumped" against the steering wheel, "pretty much drooling on himself.
" "He was not seeming to understand what I was wanting from him," says Osborne, who adds that Solich could not locate his driver's license and had to be asked three times to put the car in park. "He reeked. Somebody that smells that bad has had more to drink than just the three drinks he claims now. I've been doing this for 18 years, dealing with drunks around here and he definitely had more than three drinks, in my opinion.
