Why the hell would they tweet that out of it wasn't official? Good grief

Why the hell would they tweet that out of it wasn't official? Good grief
It is amazing what people can get away with by just being nice. That game yesterday was an utter symphony of destruction on display of a once proud program. I shed a tear yesterday. Forgive me if I don’t shed one for the maestro of the symphony.How is it delusional to take joy in an utterly incompetent leader being replaced? I would argue it is delusional to feel bad for a failure being dismissed solely because he was nice while collecting 7 figures to run our beloved program into the ground. The PC crap needs to end. Put up or shut up. GTFO
1620AM in Omaha will likely have live audio...Will the press conference be streamed somewhere?

You don't think they break into Saturday morning programming on TV?I’d check KETV.com, Wowt.com, Omaha.com. I’d imagine one of those would have it.

Hard to believe, but folks here are more concerned about the Apple Cup.She’s in Idaho.
There's no way anyone is taking joy out of this situation. People might be slightly apathetic, but certainly not happy.Agree with this completely.
They released it because they were told he was fired no doubt. But they jumped the gun insofar as they needed to allow the press release from Moos come first.Why the hell would they tweet that out of it wasn't official? Good grief

Thanks for the information, I'm listening to ESPN the Zone now.
Unfortunately there are people taking joy. My dad is one.There's no way anyone is taking joy out of this situation. People might be slightly apathetic, but certainly not happy.
I understand the empathy argument but as a son of a former coach, I can attest that these men take the job not for their families or thinking of their children but because of the money and the promotion involved. The wives and children were lost long ago in the chaos of big time college football, now they are compensated well above their worth, and one of the only arguments for this is to soften the blow of immediate dismissal, and to placate the families of those who are tossed around by these somewhat arbitrary hirings and firings. I find my job meaningful, and helpful to society. I change peoples lives for the better every single day, but these assistant coaches will make my yearly salary in a matter of days, and produce nothing for it.Because there are many more lives affected besides Mike Riley. How about the children of the assistant coaches? The players on this team who are close to the coaches.
It didn't work out and that's sad. We move on because we have to, not because it's a happy occurrence when people get fired.
This is a big problem in our society where people without empathy can't see past how an event affects them.

Let this sink in. $170k a MONTH. What does the average Nebraskan make a YEAR? $40 - $50k? And that is for doing their job well...170 k a month till 2021. I'm in the wrong line of work.
That surprises me. I'll wait until I see who the next coach is before I feel excitement or not. Frost is certainly no lock. If i was an up and coming coach, I'd take pause before going to Nebraska. Something is way off right now.Unfortunately there are people taking joy. My dad is one.
Even worse, that ass clown Bo making 120 K till 2019!!Let this sink in. $170k a month. What does the average Nebraskan make a year? $40 - $50k? And that is for doing their job well...
I agree - he is a psychopath - but when he left, our program was just outside the top 25 looking in. Now we are no where close. He was a dick and I wanted him gone as much as anyone, but you can argue he is more fairly compensated than Riley.Even worse, that ass clown Bo making 120 K till 2019!!
I have a friend whose dad turned down an assistant coaching job in the NFL in order to keep stability for his family. Not many guys would have done that.I understand the empathy argument but as a son of a former coach, I can attest that these men take the job not for their families or thinking of their children but because of the money and the promotion involved.

Looks like they retracted that tweet. Only a matter of time though.
People being happy about their own states failures. Is what is Delusional. 95% of you loons wanted him to fail. Each week Frothy won it got worse. A ravenous pack of drunk a$$ cranky old trolls with pitch forks and fire sticks. If it ant Frosty or some other ancient failure from the crept. It'll be off with his head too . Run the ball they screamed as they were all tossed to their peral. In the end all the village idiots ran us to the edge of the cliff. Happy turkey Day !!

Unfortunately some people are so consumed by politics, it interferes with thinking about anything else such as a historic change in the Nebraska football program. Really sad I have lost touch with friends and a couple relatives after the last election, but that is the way it is nowadays what with people consumed with hate.Can we not go into politics? Sports are supposed to be an escape.
Now that's funny.Is the Lincoln high school already reserved for the FU meeting?

The amount of money they make is irrelevant other than they are worth whatever aomeone is willing to pay and it means they won't struggle economically after they are fired. It does say a lot about the priorities of our society though when professions like social work don't make a living wage despite providing a life and death service because no one wants to pay taxes.I understand the empathy argument but as a son of a former coach, I can attest that these men take the job not for their families or thinking of their children but because of the money and the promotion involved.

Exactly enough with the PC bullshit. There's nothing to be thankful for putting up with a grossly incompetent coach the last 3 years. I don't give one shit how nice he acts in public. That's a bare minimum standard at any job.How is it delusional to take joy in an utterly incompetent leader being replaced?
