[Husker] Coaching Staff, Recruiting, SOS, Etc...

[David Sage]

What makes you think that Bo did not hire the assistants?  How do we know 
that Bo was hired with a stipulation to hire certain coaches?
On a side note.  It really doesn't matter if the someone thinks a coach is 
any good or not as long as Bo thinks they are and will work in his system. 
If they don't work out then he will have the choice to get rid of them down 
the line.

Maybe Bo had impute on offering Micah a scholarship.  How do we know.  We 
don't!

That's is what is good and bad about this internet Monday morning 
quarterbacking.  We can all have an opinion.  I guess I just said mine.
