lol ... 2012 beches: 12-0; #1 Ranked before getting ass handed in NCG vs NFL's 33rd team

After that, it's been shall we say ... dicey.

We're stuck with him til 2021 come hell or high water. Hopefully, he gets a DC with a pulse, someday.

He was a PC hire by that dumb liberal AD cvnt Barbara Hedges. To make it worse she wouldn't fire his ass after fans and alumni were begging her too. He was her downfall. After he went 0 - 12 .. the first PAC team to ever go winless btw ... they were both shown the door.

 

[outofyourmind]

After he went 0 - 12

a perfect season

 

[AlaskaGuy]

a perfect season

No PAC team has ever went winless .. until Washington did it.

Does George O'Leary count? Starting to sound more and more like the great things ship has sailed. Can't take too many more of these hires.

He would have made a great coach.
You guys fucked that one up for no apparent reason.

Being high minded en sech. Couldn't tolerate the little white lies on the resume.

Not sure what they have to say about the serial run-ins with the law and academic problems they've had since Kelly's been here.

I was gonna put O'Leary up there, but I don't count him since he never go to coach a single game as Willingham took the spot.

Yeah, I'm with you on that. He didn't improve or worsen any ND team, he didn't have time to. But it did much the hiring process up.

Nebraska needs seven

Presnell
Lewandowski
Clark
Masterson
Glassford
Elliot
Jennings

Devaney
Osborne

Solllich drinking problem and some other non-player hidden scandals. President and Chancelor decided to cut bait, let AD Steve Pederson make the announcement thereby putting the next target on Pederson

Calllllllllahan was an ass and so were his ass t coaches.

Pellllini ended up that he hated the glaring spotlight of Nebraska media, so he hated the job his last three years

Rilllley Doesn't mind the pressure, but he is near retirement anyway. Not sure if he even owns a house anywhere in Nebraska. He did buy one, but his wife is paint sensitive so they put it up for sale.
