Meyer didn't have to recruit until he got to FL and he had the advantage of Charlie Strong and Clint Hurtt already on the staff which led his efforts. Then they left for L'ville and his recruiting took a huge dive. He left the cupboard pretty bare for Muschamp.
That seems like it came from nowhere. They fired the last dude for having a much better record than the dude that they hired. That is curious.
Oregon St isn't easy to recruit to and lots of times he's had to rely on JUCO talent. I guess Nebraska thinks he can do better with them. Personally, I don't. I don't think Nebraska can recruit itself like they think it does.
The hire is a head scratcher for sure...
It sounds like he was the 3rd choice...Bielema turned the job down and they were also going for Kyle Whittenham. Not good.
They just fired a dude for winning 9 games. Who wants to walk into that deal?
Exactly. Bo either rubbed someone the wrong way or the AD wants a miracle guy.
It was pretty public with Pelini bashing Husker fans, it was not some secret.
Kinda like at Tech.
Fans who bash are universal and some are legitimate but coaches only have one response and that is their won loss record. Pelini has a pretty good record in that regard. I would say in the upper 20 %.
Sure, but my point was that Pelini went on a rant about Husker fans...so not sure how this relates.
