Coach's Corner: A Letter from Bo Pelini - Huskers.com - Nebraska Athletics Official Web Site

There is no better time than right now for me to personally thank you for your support of Nebraska Athletics and Nebraska Football.

This past week has obviously been a difficult one for many people associated with the University of Nebraska and our football program. I wanted to take this opportunity to say I regret the comments that I made in private two years ago, and apologize to Husker fans everywhere.

We all make mistakes in our lives, both personally and professionally, and like everyone else I am human. The important thing is to learn from your mistakes and correct them to improve yourself as a person. I hope you can see that I have done that and continue to strive to improve each day.

Most importantly, I want all of you to know that my comments in 2011 were not in any way representative of my true feelings about our great fans and donors here at Nebraska. The time, energy, money and passion you invest in our football program and all of our athletic programs is second to none.

It is an honor to lead our football team into Memorial Stadium in front of more than 91,000 fans for each home game. It never ceases to amaze me how many of you show up on the road, no matter where we travel. That type of fan support makes a difference and certainly does not go unnoticed.

On the field, we have the opportunity to be a good football team. Last week’s game wasn’t the result any of us were looking for, but we will bounce back. There is still a lot of football to be played and I like the attitude of this football team.

I appreciate the support of Chancellor Perlman and Shawn Eichorst, and once again the support that all of you provide for our athletic programs. Your support makes it possible for student-athletes, coaches and staff to have a great experience at Nebraska, and provides us with every opportunity to succeed.

Thank you and Go Big Red!

Bo Pelini

Wonder who wrote that for him? I would hope he was to I busy to do it.

 

[Fumble_Rooskie]

who's to say there's not some kind of "performance improvement plan" in place for him to keep his job, and this is part of it? Plans like that are always kept under wraps......

great fans and donors here at Nebraska

Donors aren't fans?

cough, cough...Shawn or Harvey

 

[Red_Alert]

Really though. It's time to move forward and let the players play.

Hopefully Bo's been humbled a bit in that it's the State of Nebraska's football program, our traditions, and our standards regarding performance and conduct.

My feelings exactly. I am tired of this shit.

He's gone years end unless he wins the big. Someone else obviously wrote that letter so whatever. Let's just salvage what we can this year and figure this shit out at seasons end.

I will disagree with those that think someone else wrote the letter. I do not think Bo would allow that to happen.

I think Bo wrote the letter. He points out that his comments were in "private." He is "human" and makes "mistakes."

Yes, the AND DONORS words are rather interesting. Why did he say that? Pressure from some donors?

I will agree with fumble_rooskie. This is part of a Performance Improvement Plan, of which Bo seems to get one each year. Bo needs to realize that Eichorst is not Tom Osborne, since Tom Osborne hired Bo and went through his own troubling times with Nebraska fans, Tom was a bit more tolerant. Eichorst probably won't be very tolerant

 

[corn train]

Come on now, Bo really cares guys

 

[HuskerPower52]

What if the tipster wrote it

 

[corn train]

I'd like to have a little tipster, just for as second, to see how it feels

Someone else wrote the letter and you're naive for thinking otherwise.

 

[Red_Alert]

T.O. might have wrote it.

 

[blkflagmafia]

I know bo didn't write this

But if he did....

STOP WRITING and go coach!

I don't give two shits how you feel about us bo don't care
I'm not a fair weather fan but you were stinking up the joint that osu game so I don't blame them for leaving

I just wanna win

Hey Corn, your dumpster is on fire <----- a tip from me...

 

[HuskerInSecLand]

Guess I'm naive because I see no reason to think he didn't write it except people want to be pissed at him.

As for he needs to be coaching instead of writing hell I could write that in 10 minutes sitting on the shitter.

Does it mean he means it? No, actions not words will show that. Honestly it doesn't mean a thing except he is trying to show he is sorry, whether that is coerced or voluntary, again it doesn't mean a thing.

^^^^^^^
Gotta agree here. Bo ain't that "humble' to word the way it was written.

The Letter is pointless......the letter wasn't gonna change anything either your mad at the audio or game play.
I'm worried about game play not what the secretary wrote.

 

[Red_Alert]

Some of it sounds like it could be Pelini's words, some of it sounds like someone in a management position that's a bit more articulate. Almost like it was a joint venture.

It doesn't really matter. His product needs to stop collapsing in big games. I personally don't believe the few rhetorical changes he mentioned earlier this week (to appease his critics) are going to make the difference.

We'll see.
