SI's Stuart Mandel, in today's column, thinks that "(Bill) Callahan's hiring was a potentially colossal mistake". Mandel agrees that Nebraska's program needed some modernization. However, he also says that Frank Solich is showing just that at Ohio, and that Callahan's NFL credentials and NFL experience may be irrelevant in the college game.
Oh, and Steve Pederson's other 2 candidates (Dave Wannstedt and Houston Nutt) also get some negative attention in the 'ol mailbag.
I think any person that understood coaching would know that two years of any level of head coach experience would not prepare you for the Nebraska experience. When it became clear that Frank was let go to glorify Steve Pedersons ego, Steve had to look like he had a plan, and Callahan had a Super Bowl loss on his resume. (How good was the AFC that year, and who on that team had career years that they have yet to repeat?)
ReplyDelete"Time will tell"? Yes it will.
ReplyDeleteAs for "Your site sucks!": Thanks! Now crawl back and join the rest of the inbreds at HuskerPedia. Talk about lame; the best comment you could come up with was "you suck"???
Time will tell. If that is the arguement, then we should have given the coaching staff Frank assembled a chance. They took the same bunch of kids from 7-7 to 10-3, so apparently they could do something where Callahan just throws up his hands and says, "These aren't my recruits?!?".
ReplyDeleteGuess what, they weren't Barney Cotton's either and his offense looked better than Callahans. So I would say to someone who as artistic as "you suck", 3rd grade has an opening in the first row.
I usually look but don't touch, but it appears that the old saying still applies, "the truth hurts".
ReplyDeleteBetween the arguements of "you suck" and the later, I wonder which one requires a deeper level of thinking? Easy answer, except if you're the "you suck" guy.
your site does suck
ReplyDeleteI agree with him
TERRIBLE
ReplyDeleteFrank Solich was the worst

ReplyDeleteWell, that Huskerpedia user finally learned he can repetitively post comments, so I had to shut off anonymous comments.
ReplyDeleteFunny, but you have the same IP address as that HuskerPedia guy.
ReplyDeletewtf Mike? You've got all the haters and kool aid drinkers all riled up!
ReplyDeleteThis is hilarious!
Keep it coming...
Not all of them, just one guy in Lincoln, apparantly with a lot of free time.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Callahan went to the Super Bowl...and he hasn't won a game worth talking about since.
ReplyDeleteEven as a Husker fan, I can admit this program is in trouble.
I also believe that if NU has a weak record this year and Pederson schedules another D-II lightweight, we could see the sellout streak end early next season.
