I want our coach fired thread

[Red_Alert]

Oh I've definitely made a few.

You've made Fire Bo threads?

 

[Red_Alert]

LOL

Beck, Papuchis, and Watson all have threads dedicated to them.

The Nebraska fans who want Pelini fired for on-field performance are living in the ’90s. Winning takes time, patience, more than six years. Osborne didn’t win an outright conference championship until his ninth season. He shared a conference title in his third season – but so did Pelini. In 2010, Nebraska finished the season tied for the Big 12’s best record, a feat that would have earned a league title in pre-conference championship game days.
At the end of the day, Pelini has a winning percentage of .704 in nearly six seasons. In his first five years, he had a winning percentage of .706. Better than Nick Saban. Better than Bear Bryant. Better than Lou Holtz, Bobby Bowden, Bo Schembechler, Jimmy Johnson, Frank Beamer, Steve Spurrier, Les Miles, Pop Warner, Amos Alonzo Stagg and, oh, by the way, Bob Devaney.

Nebraska Rankings the first decade under Osborne AP/COACHES POLL):



Year

1973 11/7
1974 9/8
1975 9/9
1976 7/9
1977 10/12
1978 8/8
1979 7/9
1980 7/7
1981 9/11
1982 3/3
1983 2/2


The lowest ranking in that list is 12. Has Bo ever finished a year @12? You mention it takes time to rebuild--I'll give you that. But how many years are you suggesting? We've bee 9-4 for the six years of Bo. Where's the improvement? 6 years of 9-4 is a pattern NOT rebuilding. Penalties injuries turnovers not winning big games piss poor kickoff returns. Nothing's changed.

I stand corrected on the 9-4 point but the fact remains he hasn't shown much if any progress over his tenure.

 

[blkflagmafia]

my main question has to be is bo happy with all this:

sounds stupid I know but we've been beating ourselves and playing down to lower opponents since 2010. when is the change or leap into the top10 or even top 15 gonna happen. our conference is a joke and yet we haven't taken the steps to run the bigten.

last game showed me again that were still the same Nebraska under bo that once again luck and certain players have saved him again.

 

[Red_Alert]

Bo's been living dangerously close to the 8 or even 7 win mark the past couple years.

I'm just looking forward to this Saturday's game and a chance to improve.

Yay cornhusker football!

I always thought Adams College unis looked a lot like ours.

Did the dude above you say something stupid again. I scan right past his posts on a very regular basis.

(Btw, I know people do that with mine as well. It's all good.)

 

[blkflagmafia]

I'm a little bit worried about our team speed and how we respond to the opponents speed.

mcneese st has some speed bc of transfers miami is gonna have all the speed at their disposal. I don't know if AA 30 times in that game is gonna be enough. that game is gonna tell us a lot of just confirm typical fears.

Yes I did and owned up to it. Although technically Bo has won 9 games every year.

Since you want to get "technical".

No, "technically" Bo has not won 9 games every year. "Technically" Bo has won AT LEAST 9 games every year.

It's cool though, at least you owned your mistake and didn't come back in here trying to "technically" make yourself correct.

Oh wait...

I watched the game back again last night.

The Defensive Line wasn't as bad as a whole as I originally thought. Gangwish was awful and I can't wait to get Gregory back. The LBs were completely terrible. Good thing we had Gerry or there would have been some long ass runs busted in that game.

Still though, the game was nearly lost due to Tim Beck's inefficient play calling. That guy has anxiety something fierce and he can't seem to control it. The 2nd half especially was an absolute train wreck. This concerns me moving forward.

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Our success this season is going to rely on Beck not being an idiot.

It seems we've cleaned up the fumbles and that circus shit, but Beck still wants to walk a tight rope over a pit of lava, and it costs us.

Yeah. Their offense only scored 14 points. It was Bo's typical "bend but don't break" front 7 defensively. Containment, patty-cake, play on your heels, assignment stuff. The theory is the more plays an offense has to run, eventually they'll shoot themselves in the foot. If they manage to survive that and get into the red zone, the field gets shorter on them, there's less to defend, and you can hold them to a FG.

Giving up 3 points is better than giving up 7 points. Bo likes to say it's all about the scoreboard when Nebraska plays a close game.

There is also a problem with the O-line killing positive plays with meat-head penalties.

My daddy is a coach.

My uncle is a coach.

One would think having that benefit would make them leaders in the locker room, the film room, in practice, and on the field. That they would give the most effort and be the most disciplined players on the field.

Then again... One could also think it leads to a sense of entitlement. That they are going to get playing time regardless.

What are the odds that family members happen to be the best players in their respective positions in a blue-blood program?

One last year to wash the latest fixtures Jake Cotton and Mark Pelini out of the system, then there's only one more Cotton boy to go.
