Thanks Tom

There are a couple of you guys that I am convinced carry a picture of Riley in your wallet and spend some alone time staring at it when no one else is around.

I'm not advocating keeping Riley, but if you aren't going to get a real coach to replace him let him get at least 4 years and a full team to evaluate. And a coach with 11 wins definitely doesn't fit the bill.

Whatever. Your boy has been exposed....big time. There is not one single excuse that can be used to explain this dumpster fire.

That 11 win coach, if hired here, is twice the coach our career .500 coach is, even at this juncture in his career. We get it.....some of your little group there doesn't like Frost as a person. He could go unbeaten for the next three years and you'd try to find some reason why he wasn't ready.....in the meantime you explain to all of the 'cletus Husker fans' why Riley just needs more time. Carry on.....that narrative now shows who/whom the real morons are now.

Let's spend more time complaining about Rimingtons hashtags!! That means something!!

Hell, all the Oregon state fans that posted on here when he was hired told us what to expect; they knew the truth.

Pelini stepped into a program that had 17 future NFL draft picks. Riley stepped into the same program with 5 future NFL draft picks. Let's see how many future NFL draft picks the next coach gets from Riley....I'll wager at least double what he had given him.
Bo pelini had a higher winning percentage in his last three years with his recruits than he did the first 4 years with BC's recruits. What is apparent is that Bo could win games and MR can't.
 
He was below average.
He was also good for one loss every year against a vastly inferior opponent.
He was a better coach than mike Riley, but Riley is more of an adult, better face of program, and gives a lot more effort in recruiting.
But my point is that bo did better with bo recruits than Riley has, and we fired bo.

See the above in Red. That is debatable. He might not be the screaming lunatic but Mike Riley has this team looking like a laughing stock. We get no respect and people just shake their heads at us. We had the talking heads laughing at us on National TV last year. Don't fool yourself......while it might be a slightly better face than Bo.....its not a good one.

I'd take that bet. Hands down.

Weren't you one of the ones that wanted to get rid of Bo because he would only win 9 games a year and that is all we would ever get out of him. And now you are claiming he would be worse than 18-15?
 
This. Compare Solich and Pelini to Clownihan and Guy Smiley.

We should never have fired Solich. And if we were going to fire him we should have done it in 2002.

The real villain in the demise of Husker football is Harvey Perlman.

Ok. Cue all the Osborne trashers on here. "He recommended Pederson!" "He circumvented Byrne when he named Solich as his successor!" "He undermined Riley!"

Finally, someone calls out the real villian in this whole deal and the one constant that brought Cornhusker football to it's present condition. Perlman hated....HATED.....that the UNL was known first and foremost because of it's football team.
 
He hand picked Solich to keep the staff intact... If it wasn't broke you don't fix it.

After Pelini went on to Oklahoma and LSU as defensive coordinator just about every Husker fan had no problem with that decision... Plan BS that he set us back 10 years when Cally and now Riley have set this program back much more.


This is correct

We experimented with the Cally and Riley hired.

Aside from being a cross between the little girl from the Exorcist and Lord Voldemort, Bo could never win any games that mattered in the Big-10.

It doesn't take 4 years to evaluate how a coach is doing. Don't worry, He'll have more than 11 wins by the time he returns to Lincoln.
 
We all know what he did for us as a coach. Him handpicking Frank when we had a lot of very good candidates drooling to take over the best team in the country (ala Mack Brown) was a mistake. Then taking a chance on Pelini was a hire that did not go well and set us back 10 years. Two bad hires that have strongly contributed to the status quo.
At the time Husker fans like you were demanding Bo. Take responsibility Husker fans for Bo. I'm one of them

This is a good example of an important realization: Collectively, Nebraska fans deserve this.
