BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 The Freedom trophy? JFC, why does Nebraska join the big 10 and get the two lamest trophies in history. Can't we play for the giant golden cob or something awesome? Link to post Share on other sites

brvheart 1,752 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 You're such a huge baby when it comes to football, Suited. You guys are 8-1 before today and ranked 16th in the country. No one except the ex-GM of the San Diego Chargers would fire a coach in the middle or end of a season like that. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 we've been over this, cyclone. Some of us have been raised on championships and demand a higher standard, and some of us perpetually are waiting for basketball season. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 The reason we are upset, is Pelini was brought in for his defense, and his defense is awful. Nebraska has lost to a border line top 25 Wisconsin team by a combined 129-55 in the last two meetings. It's absolutely humiliating. Link to post Share on other sites

BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 I can't believe Nebraska won. What's the worst about Pelini, is he'll lose awful games he shouldn't lose, and do enough to get fired, but then win JUST enough to save his job, year after year. We're stuck in this mediocrity another year, I think. I can't believe it. Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted November 29, 2014 Author Share Posted November 29, 2014 he must be fired, there is no other acceptable course of action. watching ohio state is so depressing because they are such a well coached team and it is in such contrast to nebraska the last 7 years. pelini is not a ceo, he's a grunt who should be coaching a secondary at best. he owes glenn dorsey and ndamukong suh every penny he's ever earned.

brvheart 1,752 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Regarding Nebraska firing Bo Pelini today, I wholeheartedly support the decision. Frankly, I find it condescending to suggest Husker Nation should put up with a coach who didn't win one conference title in 7 years, given the tradition and resources they have. And I'm not even a Nebraska fan. Over the past 46 years Nebraska only lost more than 3 games in a season 12 times, and half of those happened on Pelini's watch. What Nebraska needs in its next coach is a "hook." I've always believed the biggest mistake the Huskers made wasn't just firing Frank Solich after going 10-3, but they abandoned the option offense that was their identity as well. When you're not a major population center, you need a hook to recruit. Nebraska got players like Tommie Frazier to Lincoln because at Nebraska he could be a star quarterback, but if he stayed home in Florida he was going to be a safety. I really believe Nebraska should go back to that offense. It's easier to recruit to, and it creates preparation problems for teams that won't see it all season long. To that end, my #1 candidate for the Huskers is Paul Johnson at Georgia Tech. He's won big in the ACC with this offense, and is on his way to his 3rd appearance in the ACC Championship Game this weekend. In Tommy Armstrong the Huskers have an ideal quarterback to run this system. They could win with it next year. Johnson won 19 games his first two seasons at Georgia Tech, the best two-year record in Atlanta since Bobby Ross won the national title there in 1990, because it's a tough system to adjust to. If not Johnson, if I were the Huskers I would hire Scott Frost. He's a celebrated former player that unites the fan/alumni base like Fred Hoiberg did for Cyclone basketball. But he has a lot more coaching experience than Hoiberg had, and he's been the offensive coordinator for Oregon the past two seasons, so that gives him cache with recruits.

BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I loved Johnson when Pelini got hired, I really wanted him. But now, I'm full board on with Frost. He wasn't just OC this year, he was Chip Kelly's right hand man, when Kelly was still there. He has played under two of the greatest non-traditional offensive minds in college football history. He has the pedigree, he has the connection with the program, he could be a husker "lifer" if he does well. I love the hire, if they do that. Â And I completely agree about the hook. Nebraska can't compete with top tier schools for 5 star recruits, and just run pro-style systems. You have to do more, will less. You have to have some sort of novel offensive system, that will attract top flight talent, for that system. Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted December 1, 2014 Author Share Posted December 1, 2014 lot of talk on the nebraska rivals site about jim tressel, with frost as OC/Associate Head Coach (implying they will pay him over 1 million per year to get him to agree to be head coach in waiting). Â obviously this excites me, but i don't want to get my hopes up. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I don't see Frost moving for that. I'd rather have Frost than Tressell, but I don't think Tressell is a bad choice. He reminds me of TO in a lot of ways. Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted December 1, 2014 Author Share Posted December 1, 2014 frost makes 400k now. offer him 1.2 million for 5 years and he'll be on the next plane. Link to post Share on other sites
BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Yeah, because Oregon doesn't have any boosters willing to open up the pocketbook and match. Â Â 1 Link to post Share on other sites

BigDMcGee 3,352 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I'm just saying, we can't get into a pocketbook contest with Oregon, if they want to keep him as an assistant. What they can't do, is offer him the head coaching job. Which is what we should do Link to post Share on other sites
