I'm mixed about it. Firing a coach that goes 67-27 over a seven-year period seems silly to me.
Then I remembered that Missouri and Kansas State, two teams that don't have Nebraska's history, have done a lot more in the past seven years when it comes to competing for conference titles.
They just better have an ace up their sleeves. Is not necessarily the firing that's the bad decision. It's the next hire that makes the decision bad.

The more I read this thread the more I realize people are just uninformed about the business of CFB and what reality is.

plus redshirting all their OL, plus a hell of a walk-on program, and recruiting thugs like the Peters and Lawrence Phillips.

Well, fear of the unknown is not a legit reason to keep a coach.

Big mistake by Nebraska? Firing a coach with 9 wins. Who do they think is better that will move there?

Maybe Tom Osborne will go back to the sidelines. Might be their only option for relevance.

Most kids nowadays have no clue who Osborne is. If they want to succeed, they need someone who's a big name and who kids know and want to play for. An up-and-comer isn't gonna cut it.

Patterson, Richt, Mora? You really think these guys would go there ?
Paul fricking Chryst? He's on the verge of being fired from Pitt because he can't win more than 6 games in the awful ACC

Everyone in NE knows who he is. All 1.7 million of us.

One can only hope. That would be a dream come true if it came to fruition.

A couple nubber friends I know say it will be Tressell. Apparently they have a guy they know in the Athletic Dept.

Unfortunately, there isn't much elite football talent in the state of Nebraska.

Richt definitely would, if he was fired at GA. He's from Omaha and still has a lot of family there. Heck, I'd go after him regardless. He's my #1 choice.

He might be ready for a change of scenery, as well. Never know unless you ask.
