[Husker] Bo interviewed for PSU ?

[Mike Jaixen]

The article now reads that Pelini was "was interviewed last week in Texas by Joyner" ... which is more than just saying that he talked to someone associated with Penn State.  I don't have a problem with Pelini "talking" to other schools, because otherwise, there would be no way to say "thanks, not interested."

Interviewing is another matter entirely...though both Osborne and Pelini both deny the report, for what it's worth.

The Pitt connection could be fascinating.  However, let's not forget that Pederson's return to Pitt was the same weekend that Pelini returned to Lincoln.  Pelini was busy that weekend coaching LSU in the SEC Championship game.

My guess is that if Pelini was Pitt's head coach in 2007, Nebraska probably still would have been interested in Pelini at that time...and that Pelini probably would have been headed to Nebraska simultaneous to Pederson's return.

The article says he "talked" to the AD.  He is not in the running and the
talk may have been that he wasn't interested. 

It also states he was a finalist for the Pitt gig in 05. I assume that
before SP was rehired.  Imagine if Bo had gone to Pitt and SP became the AD
again.  

Bo has denied interviewing for PSU.
