>>Come on Bob, take a swing. I know we should have hired that 10 
year veteran coach with the 100% winning record. And who would 
have that been. 


     Why do you have to be a SA?  You know as well as I know no 
one has 100% winning record let alone over 10 years.  Can't we 
even have a discussion here without a swipe at me?  If I indeed 
took a swing you wouldn't want to know what I was indeed swinging 
at.  


>>In the mean time get off the fence. We all know what you think 
of Pelini but you have to hedge your bet just in case- God forbid 
- this works out.


    It probably will work out more than likely because I don't 
think it will.  I am always wrong and that should be enough fuel 
for the Pelini band wagon jumpers to feel good.  I love Pelini as 
a Defensive Coordinator.  I thnk he is one of the best defensive 
minds in the country.  But, Head Coach is a totally different 
deal.  This is the Univerversity of Nebraska.  I have been told 
on this list it is the most storied program in the history of 
college football.  If indeed that is the case why do we have to 
settle for less than the best?  Why can't the greatest program 
ever just name their Head Caoch from the group lining up at the 
door?  How many programs out there needing a Head Coach would 
turn to Bo Pelini as their number one pick?  I think it says a 
lot he hasn't been a Head Coach to this point.  But as I said I 
am sure he will win nine million games at NU and make people 
forget about Tom Osborne because I am usually wrong.


>>I don't care who the coach is. I'll be on the front seat of the 
bandwagon until it crashes and I'll hop right on the next one.


I assume you said the same thing about Callahan.
