Nebraska has seen enough.

"Impressive" that he was 5-22 in one score games...that's crushing.
That program will never come close to being what it was in the Osborne heyday. Never.
Aw, shucks.Quote:

Notre Dame next?
I don’t know. Personally, although their fans are unrealistic, I think Notre Dame will give Freeman a longer leash than LSU will give Kelly.Quote:

I’m feeling really good about us missing out on Marcus Freeman.Quote:

As for Freeman and ND...maybe Freeman will turn it around. Or maybe he's not HC material. Not all really good coaches...are head man material. Another elusive quality.
Geoff Collins gone from Georgia Tech?

sounds like he AND the athletic director could be gone tomorrow when the bees hive up and decide.Quote:

Another mid-season change, this time with double duty.
