[Husker] Player respect

[Paul Blanchard]

Now why is anyone worried about yelling?

I have had my butt chewed plenty if times, I'm still alive.

I have returned the favor many times, last I checked they are still alive.

Or is this the kinder, gentler age, where we care more about feelings, than results.

Oh, but he does it on the sideline where everyone can see it.

When I played, there was maybe one camera in the state.

If you don't want to have your butt chewed, then don't try to succeed at anything.

Just my 2 cents

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.
