re: Does anyone get the impression pelini might be a D.C.

I thought when Pelini took the Nebraska job that he would fail in the same ways Mike Archer did here. Both are darn good DCs, but not good recruiters, are not personable with families or the media, and would have a lot of growing pains learning about the breadth of HC duties.

Pelini actually did better than I expected at Nebraska.

I think he should stay a career DC at this point. Archer never got another HC opportunity and for good reason.
