but Osborne wisely got out when the speed and athleticism of the SEC got to the point that you could no longer win a national championship by running the I-formation behind a big offensive line

apparently Osborne got out when he couldn't win.



also i don't understand why a lot of people think our uniforms are boring..

There might be some truth to that, but I believe Osborne saw the writing on the wall in regards to new academic standards and reduction of scholarships which would make it hard to recruit at Nebraska. Which are the issues Frank Solich had a hard time dealing with.

Naw..It was known Solich couldn't communicate.

Reportedly David Sokol was brought in by the university to teach Solich some management skills and after a couple of sessions Sokol informed them he had little to work with.

Another time Shatel said he was at a church speaking engagement where Solich was the guest speaker. Apparently two old ladies sitting in front of Shatel were wondering how Solich could recruit with such bad speaking skills.

That being said, Solich's downfall was Craig Bohl. I believe success would have returned had he and Pelini been given another year..

"They won with it in the 80s and 90s, but Osborne wisely got out when the speed and athleticism of the SEC got to the point that you could no longer win a national championship by running the I-formation behind a big offensive line. "

Ummm that's funny. Osborne closed out his career with lopsided wins over Florida and Tennessee (two SEC teams) in national title games. Osborne left at the top.
The SEC was never at the point that Osborne couldn't beat them. Ever

I quit reading the story after that boneheaded statement. Maybe I'll continue it later..

The guy is just pissy. Similar to a radio show I love in Omaha they just hate Nebraska and will always hate them and look for any possible reason to bitch about Nebraska and their fans.
