Playing catch up in a tough conference. It won't be easy.

I have heard... just heard... he is not a "Charismatic recruiter". All big name recruits get won or lost by the HC. I think he needs to prove the rumor wrong or find a new gear in recruiting.

I hope I'm wrong because I'd like for a former LSU guy to do well, but I just do not see Pelini being successful as a head coach, especially at Nebraska.

He's not very media savvy, he supposedly doesn't like to (or is not very good at) recruiting, and his X's and O's leave quite a bit to be desired at times. Not to mention he is stubborn enough that I can definitely see him failing in the process of hiring top-notch assistants as there is turnover. You have to do two things to become a solid head coach in college: recruit and hire quality assistants. If he can't do those two things (and my opinion is that he can't do either), he'll fail at Nebraska.

I just don't think he'll do very well in Nebraska and they'll run him out of town within four years.
