Pelini was Paranoid. He thought everyone was out to get him. He had the team believing that too. Which was crazy because he had the best fans in America. Then the New AD came in and at the end of the first season with him, he literally asked to be fired. He didn't get fired until a year later. The Riley hire was a disaster.... and Nebraska has not recovered from the lack of talent left in his wake. He recruited kids that wanted the easy way to stardom. Many of those left the team. That's not the Nebraska way. Hard work, and power football has always been the key to success. Frost is doing a lot of weeding in his first 4 years. Made his share of young coaching mistakes. Took Tom O 25 years to win one, hope Frost does it sooner. Or I may not be around to see it.

This is a program that will win again, but it will take time, and fans of The Big Red are patient, but they also demand results. It is a challenge to recruit and will always be. As far as new videos, the coaches that have already been let go in the NFL, Tom Herman at UT, Lovie Smith at Illinois, Gus Malzahn at Auburn.

Pelini was terrible at Youngstown State. Settling for mediocrity every year. I went from a season ticket holder to not even going to one game in 2018 and 2019. He is like Romeo Crennel, people keep giving him chances as a coach but he's really just an assistant.

That always set him and the team back. The blackshirt defense seem to regress every year after that stellar 2009 campaign. He never recruited great either. There were a few bright spots (Abdullah, Martinez, Burkhead, Jamal Turner, Lavonte David, Randy Gregory) but he and his coaching staff couldn’t consistently develop the bulk of his players recruited. Sadly this is the same problem Frost is having right now too..

I liked Coach Bo, & the players did too. He had a temper, so did the great, " VINCE LOMBARDI" . The Coaching styles of both were very simular... they both won most of their games. I was proud of the product that Pelini put on the field . The Huskers played hard, and wasn't easily taken down by opponents. Except for a couple games in the Pelini Era were close games. Mostly Single digit or one score losses. After the firing of Coach Bo, season after season, has been all tragedy . It's painful to watch the Nebtaska Football team suffer loss after loss . Blowouts were becoming more and more comman. Up until the 2021 season I was almost embarrassed for the players. Very lackadaisical, and didn't walk with any swagger at all. The 2021 season wins were scarce, Mostly by our own mistakes and self-undoing in tight games, practically inventing ways to lose a game. Late in games or at a crucial times during the game the Husker would shoot themselves in the foot and eventually lose the game. The thing that I noticed was they had their Swagger back. They were still losing but played with pride and expected to win the games when they played one . I was no longer hanging my head down or feeling a deep bruising in my heart , bordering embarrassment when I listened to Husker games on the radio or watched on TV. That's what I missed, the feeling of confidence week after week . I was proud of the boys and knew that they would play with pride the following week. I would no longer have to be embarrassed by their performance or lack of it... Every loss was single score. We could finally play with any opponent again . That's what Frank Solich , and Coach Bo provided, both being let go for not enough wins. To hell with the wins they will come and go. That is Football, that is why they play the games. To play without confidence, Swagger, or pride, to just lay down or give up is totally unacceptable. All I want is to watch the Huskers Proudly, knowing they left it all on the field, did their best, even falling short in the end. It no longer hurts to bleed red in Husker Nation . To Coach Bo and to Coach Frost I'd like to say Thank You. I'm Loving the aura of the Blackshirts , and watch the offense make big plays and first downs . I'm happy to have the opportunity to witness a solid product on the field again , " win or lose"

Mike Riley(not a good hire) was left with a pretty bare cabinet... Bo nearly lost to McNeese State... gave up the all-time single game rushing record to Melvin Gordon in 3 quarters... and generally was struggling to win the games he should... had they given him another year or two, he would not have continued to win 9 games... at the time the B1G was ascending and Nebraska was declining.

Big 10 a tougher conference for NU and talent is spread around with scholarship limits and the new TV money has been invested in new facilities for all of their competitors. NU has no local recruiting base and has to depend on dudes from out of state willing to live in a small town with cold winters. Tough sell.

Kids were willing to go to Nebraska back in the day because of their national brand, their traditional rivalry with another national brand, and, most importantly, for the chance to be on television. They're making more money now in the B1G and are getting more respect, but they don't have any real rivalries (sorry, but the traditional Black Friday game against Iowa just had no zing to it). And, now that everyone gets on TV nowadays, what are the other selling points? Not a whole lot, is there?

It wasn't just that he couldn't get over the hump. Every season it seemed like the team would lose a game it shouldn't and get blown out by a team that's perceived as equal or slightly better. His real issue was the way he acted on the sidelines, the way he treated fans and media and the way he trashed NE behind the scenes. When the shit hit the fan, he had already spit-screamed into the faces of anyone that could be his ally.

U forgot to mention that 1 point lost to Texas was in the Big 12 title game

Husker fan here. One thing that was not mentioned in the video and one of the main reasons the fans turned on Bo was leaked audio of him bashing on the fanbase. Not really something any coach can keep there job through without winning a championship.

Coming from a husker fan, wanted jim Tressel after bo got fired

As a Nebraskan, the Huskers aren’t going anywhere. I think there isn’t enough discipline on the team and not enough of a “losing is unacceptable” culture there. It feels like the players don’t give a damn and half-ass it. Scheme wise we NEED to abandon the 3-4 defense and the offense needs to use a GOD DAMN GOALLINE FORMATION OFFENSE when close to the end zone, use a F-ING fullback! But none of that will happen the way things are going Nebraskans are probably going start rooting out-of-state just like we do in basketball (UNC-Duke was always tense at my school)

Yet the Frost Dickriders say Give It Time. Give it Time. Give it Time. It's been 3 seasons Husker Fans. Give up. Scott Frost is NO Osborne and never will be.

I've been a Husker fan since 1963. They have made some terrible mistakes over the years and it is not the coaches or players fault. The "administration" opened the door to let the Texas schools into the Big 8 and that is where the Texas schools and their billionaire backers took control. We "used" to have the Big 8 basketball tournament in Kansas City but that ended immediately along with a lot of other changes that benefited the other schools. Texas took control of the Big 8 and all of a sudden we couldn't get recruits out of Texas anymore. Why go North to Nebraska? Now we move to the Big 10 and we can't get recruits out of the Big 10 states. The way it is going maybe Nebraska should move to the Mountain West or maybe a move to a Division II school. We could hire a coach for a lot less money and go 11 and 2.

he wasn't fired for just 1 reason, 1 couldn't win the big games,2, suffered massive defeats, 3 and worst of all, poor man could NOT control himself, it's 1 thing to be on fire and be driven, totally different thing to lose it even on camera, msm would show his rants over and over, he brought UNWANTED attention to the university recruits parents don't want a mad man controlling their children, WOULD YOU??

Small correction my friend. When Bo Pelini was at LSU they won the national title in the 2007 season not 2006.

Pelini should have never been let go. we Husker fans got spoiled, but weren't patient enough to see the big picture. now most of us would kill for 9-3. Bo didn't like the media or doing interviews and they wanted him gone, so that's what happened at Nebraska. the other places I can't speak on. Look how long it took Osborne to have a consistent winning program. Bo, wasn't afforded that luxury because fans were spoiled. now we aren't even getting the 5 star recruits anymore. at least he was able to do that. Riley was a joke that never should have happened.

I'm a Lubbock/TTU alumini but Taylor Martinez is my favorite football player ever and I just don't see how Polinis coaching style would bring out the best in players. But maybe I'm way off and the players loved him. Just my opinion .

Bo was a great coach and I think we would have a conference championship if he stayed. Didn’t help the AD had it out for him. Frost is in a decent spot right now, plenty of transfer talent and I feel he took a big step in keeping games tight with the powerhouses. The team just simply looked better than it has in years past. We will be fine

Bo was a great coach!! Nebraska should have never left the Big12 nor should they have fired this man. I am a HUGE husker fan. Have been my entire life and will be till the day I die!! Let’s get back to husker football. We need more local recruiting. These kids in the state would die to play in Lincoln. Get back to the Big12 where we belong, playing Oklahoma, Texas etc. The mistake wasn’t Bo, it was leaving the Big12.

I'm an Iowa fan we have big rivalry now with Nebraska. Bo was a solid coach but Nebraska expectations are too high. Mike Reilly we use to pound his Nebraska teams. Scott Frost some of my Nebraska friends don't like him 0 winning season and getting beat by Iowa but the games have been close. F Nebraska.

All I can say is this....I understand where everyone comes from about Bo. But in my opinion is that ever since Nebraska fired Bo Pelini.... Nebraska has been in a downward spiral and needs to find their identity before no coach wants to coach them.

I liked watching Nebraska football with Pelini around, but his attitude was a downfall and I think it stopped him from bringing in top recruits. Scott Frost is a recruiter and a leader. You can see the writing on the wall that Nebraska has gotten better every year with him as head coach. It's simply amazing how that hasn't translated to more wins.

Not a Husker fan myself but grew up with my grandma and dad who were die hard NU fans. Nebraska wants the glory of the Tom Osbourne years back but don’t realize that it took over 20 years for Tom to win his first National championship. They want someone who can work miracles in far less time. The program I feel hasn’t been the same since Pelini was fired.

Bo not being able to take the next step is minor compared to the volatile and toxic environment he nutured.

Your comment says it best! I have lived in Lincoln all my life, to watch what happened starting in 98 is just a real shame and disgusting way to piss away a good thing.

I don’t get why they hired Mike Riley right after, like I get Bo wasn’t super great at head coach but like Mike Riley was a huge downgrade and sent Nebraska into a spiral, like I’m hopeful under Scott Frost since it’s going to take a bit to actually make the team good again but like I don’t get why they hired Riley after

@@aronsanchez6999 Honestly he is not really on the hot seat unless he fucks up really bad. He has 2 seasons of losing records until he gets fired. But once he gets to 6 and 6 or 7 and 5, he needs to get 9 or 10 wins or he's gone

I really wanted to see Bo do well and would have been happy with continued 9 wins and slowly progressing/improving. BUT, his hot head, side line antics, cussing out the fan base, and "me against the world" was the end of it. That was enough. Riley is an entirely different incredibly horrible choice. You could go back and look at the beginning of the end for us to be a perennial power with decline after TO retired (too early) to today. Decline has been sad.

I mean 9 wins is good considering it's like they expected them to go undefeated you're over 500 Better than most schools in the big ten that's actually really good I always never understood this firing Scott frost isnt really doing better so I'm sure they'll miss being over 500

Actually he is a good coach and had better success at Nebraska than today’s coach, Frost. Nebraska is rapidly becoming an afterthought in the same vein as Mississippi or Kansas State

What do I think of Scott frost at this point to early to tell give him till people otherwise we just fall deeper and deeper into the hole

Should be the Solich curse... Bo could have stayed but I feel like he was also growing tired of Nebraska his lack of effort in recruiting and not highering assistants outside of the program I think hurt him in the end and began the downfall of Nebraska football. Bo had great teams with callahans recruits but once he was on his own recruits you could see the play start to trend down. Then 3 years no development with Riley put the program in the tail spin. I hope frost can get it together but he may need to make some staff adjustments if things don’t get going by next year. In my opinion

How about Dan DEVINE?

Did Bo Pelini deserve to be fired by Nebraska?

Yeah, he tanked our culture and tried to pit the players against Bo's bosses in the upper management, who did have some vendetta against him to be fair. Either way, Neb had gotten as far as it could under him and it was time to go.

Kyle Holtzen completely disagree Sean Eichorst wasn’t the best AD plus Bo would stick up for his player for instance after the Ohio state comeback

The University of Nebraska just doesn’t have the patience like before. How many years did it take former coach Dr. Tom Osborne to win a National Title? He wasn’t fired after a title loss in the 80’s against the Miami Hurricanes. This school and fans today seem picky. What made them fire Frank Thomas Solich a former player? Did they want the title right away? Thankfully they had former coach Bob Devany as athletic director to give Osborne time and patience. I remember hearing that year of him getting hired, he was debating on staying or coaching for Colorado. Luckily with Devany’s retirement, Nebraska had Osborne. Now if there’s no patience with Scott Frost I don’t see Nebraska rising like they were back then.

They weren't really LED by Armstrong in 2013, Taylor Martinez got hurt 3 games in and they juggled Tommy and Ron Kellogg III. Shame because Taylor was haven't his best season as a passer.

Should've replaced Solitch instead of Callahan

I don’t want to jinx it but Matt Rhule is my favorite coach in recent memory so far at least the quarterback room is stacked the defense is playing with real grit again for the first time in a decade I feel good about this team

I think Nebraska got tired of Bo Pelini's mental breakdowns so they picked Mr. Rogers aka Mike Riley to replace him. That turned into a disaster. BUT Scott Frost's efforts have been extremely unproductive. Nebraska can't fire him though. They will owe him $20 million. Leaving the Big 12 was not a good move.

Considering the conference they are in and their location, Nebraska should be happy if they win 9 games. Good players in the Big 10 want to go to Ohio State, Michigan, Michigan State, and Penn State, not Nebraska. They are cut off from the good players in Texas now, they have so many places to go that are not extremely cold in the winter and provide opportunities that Nebraska is not even thought of. The 1990s are long over and will not come back.

Fact!

I still attribute his lack of success this year to covid and drastic change from stands to a fiery dc. Still think he is a great dc. And wish him success

With what Scott Frost has done at Nebraska.........getting rid of Bo was a MASSIVE Mistake

Bo is still my favorite

Pelini did not get fired because of his coaching, he got fired because he was an absolute maniac on and off the field.

Bo had some good results at Nebraska, but he was a bit of a lightning rod for media attention- and not in a good way. I loved how he fought for his players, but his temper was too much in the public. It is understandable to lose your cool at a ref for a bad call every once in awhile. It's another thing to berate your starting qb on the sidelines while treating fans and the local media with disdain. Maybe NU would have kept him around longer if he was losing blowout games against Ohio State, Michigan, and Wisconsin. If the team was at least competitive, maybe the administration could have overlooked his public unprofessionalism.

He didn't too bad at Nebraska and now people see this. Nebraska is a 9-3 and 10-2 type program.
