I forget - does he coach basketball or track?  Isn't Nebraska in the Atlantic 10 or something nowadays?  I do kind of remember them though.  Didn't they have that Turner Gill guy that ended up being a great coach for a while at Kansas?

WOW- That is just mean! Someone needs to go fishing to get all that Neb hate out of thier system :P don't you know that we hired him because his demeanor was like Osbornes and that is the recipe for winning right? 

You will never get a participation trophy with that kind of attitude!

You would not believe what I went through after the bowl for making that exact point. They have run out two 9 win caliber coaches for a guy who, at his ceiling, is a 9 win coach. 'Skers fans act like Riley runs a soup kitchen on the sideline, while healing the blind.

Besides which, T.O. in his younger days was plenty excitable and contentious.

Exactly! Of all the coaches out there at the time....frankly we won some games this year because the other team was off. We never looked good....I suspect that the "Nation" will be a little more vocal next year as we really don't have much to work with!

But I think that we can all agree that Calahan was a bust :P

Wee bit. I was at the games against KU in 2005 & 2007. Lot of folks think '07 was worse, but the '05 team that beat them couldn't touch the '07 Hawks.

Lot of winners are also tools. Just kind of runs that way.

Herman, Morris, Narduzzi, were all hired in 14. Plus Harbaugh.

Also not a fan of pro style coaches in college. They don't get it. Can't win games 24-17 in college like in the NFL. Too many kids and coaches trying too hard.

Aww. I'm sorry. As everyone knows KU guys don't get many chances to throw rocks during football season so when we see even a little opportunity look out!

Youre right though - I do NEED to go fishing to purge some of this festering animosity.

I'm pretty sure Charlie Weiss is available. Proven winner too!

I hear he brings a decided schematic advantage...

I know that's right!  Have you seen that pile of schematic advantage out there?

I say silent little prayers for David Beatty all the time but I'm not so sure that Trump doesn't have less of a mess to try and clean up!

At least so far, I ain't heard nobody saying they're going to "Make KU Football Great Again"!
