The Day After

[Papalou]

Our loss to the Gophers I ve come to the realization that the Huskers will never repeat what we did in the 90s. I have rewatched the game and see that Bo has no intentions of doing what is necessary to improve.
He suffers from the same problem that led to Billys termination (loyalty to a fault)

By not removing Papuchis as DC he is game by game removing himself as HC. People bitch about Tito but realistically 23 points should win MOST games in the B1G . I think Beck has pulled his weight as far as getting the offense in position to win . Paps defense still looks largely untalented and are either as dumb as they come or JP cant coach. I ll go with the latter on that but it still doesnt change the fact that they are far less talented than past classes.


When we joined the B1G I knew going in that days like yesterday were going to happen and not just now and again. This conference has pounded the piss out of each other since its inception. Every season someone gets the shit kicked out of them by a (lesser ) opponent and we arent going to change that. But I also expected us to be in the top end not the middle. We ARE in the middle right now fellas,so no need to sacrifice our eldest to the football gods yet.


This being said, who CAN turn our program back towards the top before we hit the bottom? I have no idea.Certainly there are quality coaches out there but if we roll the dice and send Bo packing, wht re the chnces we get an instant upswing, slim IMHO.

 

[iruletheskool]

my top 3 in order.. i think all would do phenomenally better than Bopaloni

It is certainly a bad situation that Nebraska Football is currently in.

It's honestly hard for me to believe that we can and will hire a coach who can get us to where we need to be. I think people too often believe that Nebraska Football sits on top of this high and mighty throne and the reality of it is everyone thinks we're a joke sitting in the middle of a corn field.

If you're a Head Coach prospect, you have to look at Nebraska and think, "if I don't win more than 10 games I'm going to get fired."

I don't care how much money you throw at a guy, it's tough to pay someone to do a job in hell.

 

[Papalou]

I think my top three would be



1 Pat Hill (and there is a large gap between 1 and 2
2 Steve Mariucci ( not sure I spelled that right)
3 Paul Rhodes ( really like this guys fire)

I absolutely couldnt agree more with you and it really scares the shit out of me to think we should fire a coach with Bo s record hoping for something better.

Open the check book

tell coaches put down a number

if the staff looks legit add another 2 mill for the staff or coach

 

[iruletheskool]

Forgot about him R_A.. would be happy with him too

Unfortunately that is probably the answer, but if we get a guy and staff like that we will be forever looking over our shoulder to see who will buy him away from us.

 

[blkflagmafia]

We can't be scared everyone thought neb was done in 07 Bo did fine and by 09 -10 we became legit for a little bit.

Top 5 facility
sold out record
loyal fan base
easy conference

the fact I see fans have doubts and fear like this hurts me we should never feel like we're a Duke or ULM or Syracuse

fuck were Nebraska we got money

 

[Brasky]

We need a young, energetic, enthusiastic coach with a good feel on what it is to be a Husker and what this program means to the state. Get rid of Bo before the shitty bowl game we make and have Timmy send us out on a high note. Pap can stick around and and tie off his sinking ship at the docks.

Bring Scott in right after he wins his Natty and tell him he has a blank check to go get the best of the best.

We spend hundreds of millions of dollars on facilities and we aren't willing to pay out for what really matters: Coaching. Need to bring out the big guns and be in the top 5 for coaches salary and recruiting expenses.

Tom, you threw all that fucking money at BASKETBALL. FUCKING BASKETFUCKINGBALL. WE NEED TO THROW DOUBLE THAT AT THIS SINKING SHIP, DUMPSTER FIRE OF A FB PROGRAM.

Ok I need to calm down.

I just want to see some sound logic come out of the AD and the football offices for once.

JJM put it perfect: We are the goofiest god damned program in the country. Shit you would never imagine happening to any team always happens to us, and it starts with Bo.

I feel bad for TO. Bo really failed him. He's a stubborn, angry, hateful little man who has no development, game prep, or in-game strategy skills.

I'm done with the guy. It's over. This season's only going to get uglier.

We need to plan accordingly.

Scott Frost isn't the best coach available, but he's the best fucking coach we're going to be able to land.

Unless of course Eichorst is a miracle worker. I think there may be a whole lot more to that guy than we think. He could turn out to be a wild man. Tough to walk into a situation like this and have to fire a guy.

T.O. always manages to get the fuck out of dodge right in the nick of time, doesn't he? Imagine him having to fire Bo this year.

if he's doing good give him a raise

why are we acting like we don't have money or can't spend it

if a new coach brings us a championship n bcs bowl win then fuck give him a raise . another school wants him up the money few schools can compete with us money wise and Texas wouldn't want to go on arm race with us we can match them

this is so true.. fuck..

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

We truly are the goofiest program in America....

Every time we take the field it's like I'm watching a Disney movie or somethin

I feel like the money guys are always looking for the next big deal ie Saban, Pete Carroll, Muschamp, Kiffin, Bielma and the list goes on. I also dont really see a way to avoid that.

This is true, we are worse than a bad team, we re an absolutely unpredictable freakin mess.
No telling what we will look like from play to play

I like this...but seriously why is there so much doubt in Scott Frost? I have three things that make me love the idea right away.

1. He played for Nebraska, won championships at Nebraska, KNOWS WHAT IT MEANS TO BE AT NEBRASKA. He is going to bring that fire and passion back. He isn't going to want to fail his alma mater, hes going to want to succeed so fucking hard. We won't have to worry about a coach that 'doesn't care' about the program or 'doesn't understand' what the program means.

2. Frost has connections, Oregon connections/Old Husker Connections/NFL Connections/All his previous assistant positions. He's be under the guidance of GREAT football coaches. Although he has no 'HC' experience yet, hes been working with some of the best as an assistant AND PLAYED FOR the best. He will be able to piece together a very talented and experienced coaching staff to surround him.

3. He is currently at Oregon, and everyone fucking knows that Alabama/Oregon/FSU are TIERS better than the rest of the NCAA right now. Frost is currently living in and coaching in one of the premiere football programs in the Nation. He is going to walk in here, and quickly direct what needs to be done to replicate that atmosphere back in Nebraska.

Why are some of us acting like neb broke

like Brasky said we spent money on bball..... haven't made the tournament since when? 98?

look it's a new age coaches will move family to chase that dollar Bo getting like 3 mill a year? tell everyone we will double that

sound crazy well go back n watch the minny game

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

We are the Lady Gaga of College Football.

Everybody tunes in each week wondering what in the fuck we're going to do this time. Nothing we do ever makes sense and it always leaves everyone scratching their heads......but nobody can stop watching it because it's down right entertaining to see it happen
