[Husker] Lack of talent on defense

It appears Callahan's means of ending the walk-on program was to just give all the kids we would generally ask to be prefered walk-ons a scholarship from the get go. Makes you wonder what he saw in these kids, but didn't see in Maclin (wanted him to gray shirt) or that KU LB that is all Big 12 I think.

This can't be said without knocking the current players, but it's simply 
the truth.  The cupboard is bare as far as the defense is concerned.  Bo 
has plenty of experience as a defensive coordinator in college football, 
and he's been succesful at 3 different schools.  He's proven that he can 
  have great defenses if he has a reasonable amount of talent to work 
with.  After tonight, it's obvious that he has virtually no talent to 
work with at Nebraska.

I have no idea what Dumb and Dumber (Callahan and Cosgrove) were doing 
during the last 4 years, but they sure weren't recruiting talent on 
defense.  I thought 2007 was going to be the low point of Nebraska 
football, but the stench of Bill Callahan may reak over Memorial Stadium 
for a few more years.  We are 2-3 years away from fielding a good team, 
and that will require top-notch recruiting by Bo.

The one upside to Callahan ("good recruiting") is now proving to be 
another lie.
