[Husker] Shatel: Pelini Making Calls to NFL for Watson

[Scott Daehling]

Where did you show he flat lied? Where did you show he admitted it?

These are some serious accusations you are making.

And I've shown where not only has he flat lied, but admitted as much.
Interesting he can admit it and others can't.

On a side note, I was raised that 'technically' not lying is pretty much the
same as lying.  But that's just me.

Insofar as drinking the "cool-aid", I have been critical on this list
of Bo's demeanor with the press and otherwise.  While he is understandably
aggravated by reporters or officials etc., he needs to exhibit more
self-control.

However, your claim that he lies over and over is unsupported by what
you write.  Every example that you presented doesn't support your claim,
as I and others have pointed out.  I addressed previously your example
about not knowing the starter until the first play of the game ---
that is true of anyone who isn't claivoyant.  So, Bo was not lying.
Similarly, someone isn't hired until the contracts have been signed,
even if there are understandings as to the critical aspects of the
contract.

In my opinion, you feel pretty free to throw around pretty strong
words --- such as lying --- without much or even any evidence.  Does
Bo tell reporters everything, e.g., that they planned to start Martinez
or that they plan to hire a coach?  No, he doesn't.   But, that isn't
lying --- at least as I understand what lying is.  There are times
when sticking to what facts suit you --- such as the _fact_ that events
such as an injury could change the starter or the _fact_ that the contract
hadn't been signed ergo no one had been hired --- is the sensible course
of action.
