re: Cignetti is 64 YEARS OLD

He looks pretty good for 64, and he's getting it done in a football backwater.

If I were Cignetti at this stage in life, I’d stick around at the place that finally gave me my opportunity at this level.

I’ve got something real good building and a great chance of leaving a legacy where my name will be spoken of in legendary ways.

I’ve also built myself a lot of good will and trust that if I eventually stumble for a year or two, they’ll stick by me because I’ve already taken them somewhere they’d never been.

Or….. I can be tempted by some extra dollars at traditional football factory U and have a chance to become the next “real good coach” who maybe (maybe) added a Natty or two ….if things really broke my way in these next 6 or 7 years.

Or, I could drop a few tough games or stub my toe against a coupla teams I shouldn’t for 2-3 years and they’ll be calling for my arsse and coming with the pitchforks…..Because that’s how it is at a football factory U and they won’t give a shite there and then what I’m doing at Indiana now.

At Cig’s age, I know what I’d do.

Will be interesting to see what he actually does.

Only if he finishes this current Husker campaign on a (nationally) noticeable high note would I think they make a serious play for him.

A three (or more) loss season and a trip to the Weedeater Bowl won’t cut it as far as drawing serious attention from PSU and their big-money boosters.
