This would have been a good audition if we were choosing between the two.

For the record: Before the hiring of Riley, I'd have taken Patterson. I still would. It pisses me off we didn't prioritize him.

I still don't know if I believe Patterson would have came here.

He really likes it where he's at. To move from that position he's in where he's happy to a place where the pressure is through the roof.....it takes a special kinda person.

I wanted Nebraska to make Patterson say no. Why would Patterson leave the hot recruiting state of Texas? The only answer would have been a lot of money.

Nebraska would have had to offer near 4 million plus though. Initially, I thought Patterson was making low money, but he has had two pay raises recently.

I don't think Nebraska would have done that, but it would have been ballsy.

For the record, I honestly believe the majority would have chosen Patterson. But I'm not going to dwell on woulda coulda shoulda My biggest hope is if (and I hope this this isn't even necessary), that if MR doesn't work out, we don't wait 7 years to get rid of him like we did Pelini.

GBR

And Happy New Year everyone.

We will never in a thousand years have the problems with Riley that we had with Bo. He is much better with the press so the medias opinion will never be that biased

I would gladly take Paul Johnson. He has been on my radar since the HWSNBN hire.

We need a great DC. I wish MR would hire outside of his buddies

I love watching Georgia Tech.

They play real football. Very little of the gimmicky shit that everyone runs now days.

It is what it is guys. We got what we got.

Bo is gone and that's what many of us wanted. It's time to embrace the new as there will be plenty of time to bitch about it 3 years from now if Riley ends up being another coach who's more into stroking his buddies than putting a Top 10 team on the field.

the main reason why I like Paul Johnson's offense is because nobody runs it and no defense prepares for it more than two weeks out of the year. I just am a big fan of when everybody is going left you go right and see what happens and Paul Johnson has had success doing that.

Nebraska never should have gone cute just smash Em with the option.

Don't forget Frost won't just be OC. He's also guaranteed the HC position when Riley leaves.
