[Husker] Stafford v Pelini

[Jay Saunders]

I had no problem with this exchange. There has to be the ability for give and take. If Bo is going to get after his players, he has to expect (and I might guess appreciate) he's going to get some bite back.
 
And in this situation, it was totally called for. It appears, if you go back and look at the play before the exchange, the defense was not set and at least half the players were looking to the sideline for guidance. That's on the coaches. I was told by a reporter friend of mine Stafford was yelling about how the defensive coaches couldn't get organized and that is why the play failed.
 
Bottom line - you are going to see things like this in such an emotionally-charged atmosphere. Personally I wouldn't like it if Bo wasn't passionate or if his players didn't share that passion. Do I wish it wasn't in the form of profanity-laced tirades on national tv? Of course.

Yes. The were pixelating Stafford's mouth so he apparently was using some
"naughty" words. Will he be the next player to leave the program?
