[Husker] Player respect

[Sean Brewer]

I think you might be missing the larger issue here. The issue of Bo yelling at players is to be expected. Its what happens with passionate coaches. I like to see the fire. 

What's not acceptable is when a player has such little respect for his coach that he feels a sense of license to yell at him on the field. Stafford isn't the first (see Bell) and probably won't be the last...this year. 

Can you really see a Jason Peter yelling back at McBride? How about Carriker yelling at Solich? Heck, how about Suh yelling at Cosgrove?! They all had enough respect for their respective coach and wouldn't have ever thought of yelling at their position coach, let alone the head coach. 

I've played for some real difficult coaches. While I didn't like them all, I at least respected them and would never dream of yelling at them in a place outside of the coaches office- and after asking for permission. :-)

This is a problem. They say a team is a direct representation of their coach. Countless turnovers, penalties, bone headed plays, etc., are not taught. However, players sure as heck need to be coached up to have the discipline to stop making stupid mistakes. I think it's clear Bo isn't the coach to do that. There's no excuse for this to keep happening this far into his coaching stint. 

Why does a team that lost so many blue chip players, face an everything that happened in the past year and roll into Lincoln and come thisclose to knocking off the Huskers? Where does coaching come into play?

I saw video of both Nick Sagan and Bobby Stoops physically handling players while yelling at them, which is a lot more that I have ever witnessed Bo Pelini do. If Coach Pelini's behavior as an issue, his boss (Tom Osborne) would most certainly address it.
