Nebraska can do better than Bo Pelini.

Nebraska is a great university with one of the most passionate and loyal fanbases in the country. They are a perfect fit for the B1G and vice versa. BUTT, (and I say 'butt' because I'm going to start talking about Bo Pelini, who is an ***) their head football coach is an immature, classless jerk. When I think of Nebraska football, I think of Tom Osborne, a quiet, humble coach who was a walking example of class. When I think of Tom Osborne being Nebraska's athletic director, I don't see a good fit with Bo Pelini. I see oil and water and I think it's a matter of time before Osborne cans his punk a$$. I don't care about how well of an Xs and Os coach Pelini might be, Nebraska can do better. How many more times does Nebraska have to be embarrassed by this POS? I don't care if it's refs, his local fawning media, his own players, or today's sideline reporter, he consistently shows a lack of class and a lack of control over his emotions (in a junior highish, hit-me-face sort of way). He makes a great program way too easy to hate.
 
They had a very good coach in Frank Solich but the fickle fanbase wasn't satisfied with 9 win seasons so he was fired and Nebby has struggled ever since.
 
I've never seen Steve Spurrier coach a football game where he was the more likable, classier coach...until today.

You lost all credibility with the bolded statement, Tommy O is a slime ball.
 
To those that think Osborn and Nebraska are slime.

I am sure if you were to expand on your opinion you would bring things up that would be defended by you if someone brought up similar things about Iowa's coach. Whenever your coach gives second chances or does things that outsiders question it is always the right thing and others are always wrong. But, whenever it is "Insert any other coach's name here" there is always a reason to not believe their reasoning and make them out to be a slime ball.

Osborn and Nebraska have had more academic All-Americans than pretty much any other football program over the years. They must care about some of the right things over there. That would probably mean they aren't complete slime.

But then I have forgotten how some are without fault and perfect compared to those they write about from their anonymous screen names. I personally rarely write anything on this board I wouldn't say to someone's face. Many here can't make that same statement. I guess I typically have a problem with people like that because that makes them two-faced people at bare minimum. And then how far is that from being total slime?

I'm talking about sideline behavior here. Openly visible thuggish doosh-baggery. Pelini shows it consistently and Osborne was the polar opposite. Not a good match in my opinion. The casual observer might not know about how Osborne handled the Lawrence Phillips and Holy Weiner, I mean Christian Peter situations, but the whole world can see Pelini acting like an idiot every time they play.

1. Lawrence Phillips
2. The Peters Brothers
2A. There is probably more puke athletes he let back on the team.
3. Winning titles with "Partial Qualifiers" and then having butt hurt when the Big 12 said you couldn't do that any more.
4. Total hypocrite on equal revenue sharing.
5. Can't beat UT or OU run away like a biatch.
6. Tommy O is Lucifer.
 
Hey, if Nebby fans are happy with him, who are we to question it. It's not like our fanbase is ecstatic about our coaches demeanor either, for opposite reasons.
 
Re: To those that think Osborn and Nebraska are slime.

My point, doublewide, is that if someone from an opposing program wanted to they could probably come up with a similar list to use against Iowa. I am not saying we would agree with them, but then the school being singled out would rarely agree with their critics, now, would they?

Plus, in order to come up with some sort of similar list they would not have to come up with seven points since your points 2A, 3, 5 and 6 are totally worthless points in the argument, as maybe point 4 is as well. So you have points 1 and 2 in your argument against a guy who has a solid 20+ year track record as a head coach and person.

Considering no one is perfect (except you, evidently) that is a pretty solid record of only having two things joker on a message board can use against you. And evidently you don't care to acknowledge that they have had more academic AA's than any other school around.

Your argument, doublewide, is yet another case of an anonymous message board poster who will say whatever they want whether there is anything to it or not and is not held accountable for what they say, for the most part.
 
in this neck of the woods there are many stories about osborn getting players out of trouble/jail just in time for game days. i'm sure it happened in most (all?) programs back in the day with less media to hold them accountable.
