....I get the not winning games...and I claim to have ZERO knowledge about his outside life...but we have pretty constant' hung over' references...how much of his character is really substantiated?

Being a drunk isn't really a character issue.

Maybe it has to do with most of us sure Moos truly did get the pick of the litter. We were so happy he was coming and things would be right again. Everything lined up...played for Walsh and Osborne, six years in the league, tough player, Oregon OC, undefeated HC, he understands us, he understands this place, etc. Then when it went south it couldn't have been our judgement was bad, oh no, it MUST have been some data was not available to us when we anointed him our savior. AHHHH - drinking, carousing, more important interests (hunting) were things we were unaware of when we made our evaluations everything would be wonderful. The more we think about and talk about those impediments to his success, the less we have to think about us being poor judges of coaching talent in 2018.
 
I’m not sure which is worse

Being a drunk and being terrible at your job

Or being sober and still be the worst coach in the history of the program in every imaginable aspect
Being drunk is a choice. Being terrible at your job may or may not be a choice. If being drunk is the reason that you are terrible at your job, then being terrible at your job is a choice.
 
His whole persona is an act. If you’ve ever spent time around him (even after trying not to, and he still shows up), you would be well aware. The whole act was laughable before the Frosturbators started stockpiling their Cornhusker lotion

It’s really amazing not a single player has come out and said anything about about scott being drunk or missing practices. He really did a number on them
 
What

is he worse than rodgers?
No idea. Never tried to ditch Johnny Rodgers because he wouldn’t leave an uninterested (and attached) woman alone, only to have him follow the vehicle to a house and invite himself in

I'm guessing it's not all made up, but at the same time I don't remember a peep about his character potentially being an issue when he was hired.
Was there a lack of due-diligence or did the job just turn out to be too much?

Lots of heads in the sand. His whole coaching career was carefully crafted up to that point
