[Husker] The era of the big red machine; (fwd)

[BRADALAN at aol.com]

I don't know about here, but I think some ND recruits may have second 
thoughts about going to a school that fired Ty Willingham after only 3 seasons, 
without time to fully implement his system with a full recruiting cycle.  They are 
getting a little quick with the hook, which if I were a recruit would make me 
wonder if the next coach and system will last through my career.

Let's hope that SP is smarter than the ND folks and gives BC more time than 
that if he wins 16 more games in the next two seasons (and gets the D back in 
shape, by whatever means) or is at least respectable.

Couldn't believe the press conference about Willingham.  Something like 
"Academic performance is at a fever pitch, it has never been higher."  "From Sunday 
through Friday the football program has exceeded expectations in every 
respect...but on Saturdays we have struggled."  

I think these guys made a much poorer decision than even SP did in firing 
Solich, hope the next guy makes them pay up front BIG TIME...and BC steals a 
couple of their blue chips ; )

GBR...how many days until the 2005 season starts?

Would a recruit NOT come here, due to the A.D. ?
