As of now, the plan is for Mike Riley to be fired on Black Friday. The current plan is for Scott Frost to be named the new coach on December 3.

They should have never fired Bo Pelini.

I liked Pelini, but his schtick wore thin. He wasn't showing any progress, and his temper tantrums and blowout losses on national TV were embarrassing. It was time for him to go. There's a reason why no other major school has picked him up, despite the fact that he never won less than 9 games in a season at Nebraska.

I liked Solich, but he couldn't recruit and without Osborne's talent, it was evident that we were going downhill quick. Like Pelini, there's a reason why no other major school has touched him.

As done as it can be. But I need to make a correction. Before, I stated that I was 100% certain that Frost was signing with Nebraska. I need to change that.



I'm now 200% certain that he's signing with Nebraska.

Whatever you corn-growing motherfrickers are doing to keep him out of the SEC, bless you. I don't feel like dealing with him each year.

It's his dream job, simple as that. When you're born and raised in a state, and have the opportunity to be a savior for said state, and you know that basically every person in that state is depending on you, it's hard to say no.

I feel ya. It's why insiders were saying Kirby 2 years ago when Herman was available. Hard to resist the siren song of your alma mater.

How's that working out now?

ETA: Isn't Nebraska famous for wanting to pay a HC substantially less then other schools?

That's why we fired our inept AD and hired a new one who has his shite together.

isn't y'alls new AD from Wash. State? Is he the one who hired Leach? Thought I heard this somewhere, not positive though.

No was a disaster and a psycho. He had to go, and also proved his insanity at Youngstown. Bo is the Trump of college football.
