Frank Solich wins because he surrounds himself with great assistants. Look at the staff he has had. Many great HCs do very little coaching. Like it or not thats reality.

It takes talent to recognize the skills and value of others. Those assistants need to be managed efficiently as well.

Bo Pelini won 9+ games in each of his 7 seasons at Nebraska and was still fired. I guess he must have been too busy scoring off the field too. Nebraska's problem is they try to hold their coaches to the standards that they're coaching at Alabama or OSU even though the program hasn't been at that level since the 1990s.

 

Nope, Bo's problem was his embarrassing sideline behavior. This was the primary reason Nebraska hired Riley who was the exact opposite of Bo - a complete gentleman and not a very good coach.

BTW: that hire ended up getting the AD canned.

It would appear that we are the graveyard of football coaches. 

 

 

Don't make an Ohio joke.  Don't make an Ohio joke.  Don't make an Ohio joke.  It is so hard not to do so.

Only if that video is year(s) old. That video was posted on July 12. Many of the players weren't even on campus yet, let alone in pads, not social distancing, practicing inside, etc, etc. If it is related to us, shows how much respect our players had for the prior coaching staff and why we had so much turnover last year getting rid of the players who aren't culture fits.

That video is at least a year old. And if that’s after practice, when ppl are joking around, I don’t have a problem with it. Players play jokes on coaches. Though the action’s identical, there’s a difference between if they did that joking around because they love each other versus if it was done out of true disrespect.  Like the post-game Gatorade shower.

 

That poor coach got POSTERIZED!! ??
