You mean "had" Tom Osborne's endorsement.  I posted this a few months back
and the silence was deafening.  Even the most zealous Pelini apologist
doesnt want to touch it.  I'll try again.

If four years ago, Bo Pelini had been hired as the head coach of a school
other than Nebraska, and in that four years behaved exactly as he has done
here at Nebraska, do you really think that Tom Osborne would even consider
him a candidate, much less give him the job, of Head Coach at the
University of Nebraska?

My answer...of course not.  Because 1. He's not that good a coach and 2. he
utterly lacks character.  And character always counts...with Tom Osborne,
with me, and it should with you.  I know it doesn't with Jon and the others
who have made it quite clear that they don't care how the coach acts as
long as he wins, but they are wrong.  Character always counts...in this and
everything else.
