Kevin Williams will be on 1620
- Thread starter JohnRossEwing
- Start date
Why? This isn't going to be good for anyone in any way....it'll just give the "fans" more room to point fingers at him, new coach, old coach, fans, etc.
Let it be I say.

Translation: I wasn't going to start and it looked like my playing time was going to be cut dramatically.Business decision to increase draft stock.
He thinks he has a chance in the NFL?
Ok the bottom line appears to be stats and impact on draft value. He's pointing to the change in scheme leading to a drop in performance as he said. I think Collins drop off was a big issue among the dline. We have to squash this perception.
That was a brutal interview.....but, I expect nothing less from the radio hacks on the afternoon show.
He's delusional. Last year and you won't compete for a spot against underclass men?
You missed the point, he thinks he can get better stats in a better league to increase is draft value. That is his only concern, question his logic if you like as I do.
An oft injured player with 6th year status thinking about strategy to best make the league. Delusional.
The part I thought was funny is he thinks he is going to improve his stock playing in the SEC.
If he can't start here what makes him think that playing for an SEC program and not starting their would improve his stock in the draft next year.

He's buying what Vince is selling. One thing about it. He'll get more playing time there until he get's hurt again.
Must be the SEC pixie dust.
So, anyone care to elaborate on the scheme change that is hurting DL stats? I thought Bo's two-gap scheme was not DL friendly, so I am kind of surprised by this.
He's a whiner and a Bo guy so bye bye!!! Don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out.
A soon to former player who doesn't know what time of day it is. Of course it doesn't add up.
He is obviously disgruntled about something at NU. Best then for everyone that he is moving on. Good luck to the young man. I doubt he will ever play in the NFL. But if that is his dream and if he thinks this is the best way to pursue it, then I wish him well.
The scheme we are playing doesn't reduce stats. If anything, the stats should have INCREASED. Collins was doubled teamed A LOT. VV was hurt and played lazy and that will show
up on tapes.
The real story is that he was promised more playing time by a guy he trusts and was promised nothing by a coach he doesn't know and is not a pushover. Kid picks more playing time.
He is talented and probably would have started this year with McMullen leaving.

He wants to play n the NFL, and walks away from a coach who played DL in the league for 12 years.....
Seems like a brilliant decision.
And with VM being on a staff with no winning seasons at a traditional bottom dweller in the SEC, I'll bet VM is full of more BS than a used car salesman speaking to a hot chick that knows nothing about cars.
He misses those stellar Stat Pelini 2 gap defenses we saw all the time. Oh wait that was Suh and Crick.

One more knee injury, he'll be hoping for a call from the Omaha Beef.
Many moons ago my company sacked Leader A who was not real effective. I know Leader A was angry. Leader B took over, and I suspect didn’t think much of Leader A. Right before Leader A left he sent a note to the workforce thanking us for working so hard. He outlined some successes and asked us to continue to work hard for Leader B. Leader B sent a memo a couple hours later saying he was flattered to be in charge of a workforce Leader A had done so well guiding, thanked Leader A for tireless years of service, said there wouldn’t be any wholesale changes, he was just going to “modulate” an already excellent group, blah, blah, blah. There is a way these things are done. I suspect the whole VV, GM, KW situations could have been different if FHCBP and Kaz had called the team together, told them things just didn’t work out, told them it is the nature of the business, and asked them to give the next their best shot.
That's what professionals do. Say what you want about Cally, but it seems he did not direct any ill will after leaving. Hoping these players are the last of it.
No kidding. That was all I needed to know about him last year when he was obviously PO'd as one of the press members referred to him as a backup dlineman -- which is exactly what he was. Good riddance.
Nutshell:
1. I'm great.
2. Coaches are bad.
3. Everybody wants me.
4. I'm great.
At first I was bummed that we were losing some depth on the dline, but after hearing the interview, all I can say is good riddance. I am convinced that the Pelini regime recruited some of the laziest dlinemen that this program has ever seen. I know that JP came in and laid down the law and put his expectations out there and 2 guys bailed.
I would have paid good money to have the hosts ask Williams "You say that you clearly would have been a starter. Who would you have displaced in the rotation as starter?"
Would have been gold to watch him stutter and try to find an answer.

Damon Benning had a really good take on it this morning on his show long before the interview. McMullen he seemed to indicate just didn't have his heart in football anymore. All he said about Williams is that he was a guy that we should just say goodbye to and not worry about him leaving. His response to being called a backup last season sure seemed unusual at best. More of BP's fine mentoring.
The guy put in the work and got his degree and even if it is UNL an Engineering Degree is an accomplishment. If he lands on a team that has a better image relative to defense then he is probably making the right choice and certainly right for him.
