Bo Pelini's profanity-laden rant: The 5 best quotes

quote:

---

Bo Pelini addressed the Nebraska football players in a team meeting on Dec. 2 a few days after the Huskers fired their seventh-year head coach. The Omaha World-Herald got their hands on an audio recording of the meeting and, believe it or not, Bo Pelini had a lot of things to say about athletics director Shawn Eichorst. Most of them involved colorful profanities.

Here are the five best quotes from the transcript:

5)“I didn't really have any relationship with the A.D. The guy, you guys saw him, the guy is a total p----. I mean, he is, and he's a total c---.”

4) “I said to (assistant coach Rick Kaczenski) at one point, I said this job is killing me. I said I don't want to die doing this job. I meant it. I was like, I don't want to have a heart attack on this job.”

3) “To have core values means you have to be about something, you have to represent something, you have to have something that is important to you. [Eichorst] is a f------ lawyer who makes policies. That’s all he’s done since he’s been here is hire people and make policies to cover his own arse.”

2) “He goes, I disagree that I haven't supported you. I said, 'Hey bud, you can't support someone under a f-ing rock.' I said, to do your job at this level, in a place like this, you gotta be a grown-arse f-ing man ... to lead something. I said you can't lead anything under a f-ing rock. I said you don't spend any time with us. Our players don't even know who you are. That isn't leadership."

1) “I’d rather f------ work at McDonald’s than work with some of those guys. Not that there is anything bad about working at McDonald’s.”
