Likewise, it will be tough to credit Osborne for Callahan's success if Bill Callahan has a 20 to 30 year run of success.<BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/writers/michael_silver/03/29/bring.weekend/index.html" REL="nofollow">Bob Stoops isn't afraid of Barry Switzer</A>.

If Callahan fails, then it's Callahan's fault. Either way, Bill Callahan is screwed. <BR/><BR/>He and Steve Pederson either have to succeed or fail without Osborne's involvement. <BR/><BR/>Tom Osborne truly needs to stay the hell out of everything EXCEPT his relationnships with his former players and coaches, otherwise he will be perceived as meddling.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00381202454398099037noreply@blogger.com
