OK, lets look at each one:

Shouldn't have been said, but it hardly is a pattern.

1. What does this have to do with respect, dignity,
etc?

What does this have to do with respect and dignity?
You know as well as I do that if he had left JD in the
whole game he'd have received as much if not more
criticism. I can hear it now..."OMG, I can't believe
he left Dailey in the whole game. Hasn't the coach
heard of going to a 2nd string QB?"

So now he's a complete buffoon. So much for respect
and dignity.

I am sure he does have respect for each and every one
of his kids. That doesn't mean they have to be
coddled. 

I've travelled alot in my life and lived in many
different areas and I see the same type of stuff at
other schools. This coach doesn't have Bama ties or
That coach doesn't understand OUR traditions. You
know, Coach Devaney did not have Nebraska ties when he
first came here. I wonder if he ruffled any feathers?
There are people now complaining about all the
out-of-staters playing for NU. Coach Solich was from
Ohio. Would he not be welcomed?

I have a question for the list. Who hired Craig Bohl
and who fired him? I remember the 2002 season and
Coach Solich in a press conference blaming a loss on
the defense, when I think it was the offense that
couldn't move the ball and repeatedly turned it over
(like this year). Yet, this year, I didn't hear
Callahan blaming anyone. I heard Coach Cosgrove taking
responsibility. I heard kids admitting that they
didn't execute like they had been taught. That shows
integrity.

You too, Jon.
