Take a step back and look at the big picture. This fan base is fractured many times over. Nebraska football has spent 23 years fumbling the handoff. And every time we do it, we spend the next five years arguing about whose fault it was. Start with Frank Solich. If Nebraska was going to fire him, the time to do it was after 7–7 in 2002. You could at least explain that decision. Instead, Steve Pederson fired him a year later, after he changed his staff and got back to 9–3. We’re still arguing about it. Then Pederson was out, Tom Osborne came back as AD and hired Bo Pelini. Bo won a lot of games. He’s the best coach we’ve had since Solich. I’ve said that plenty of times. He also had real shortcomings, and by the end, the feud between Bo and the administration had turned into an us-versus-them fight that dragged the fans into it. Harvey Perlman and Shawn Eichorst deserve their share of the blame for how that era went. So does Bo. Somehow, saying both still gets you assigned a side. Then came Mike Riley. I thought it was a weak hire from the start. And when you’re already asking whether you hired the right guy, it’s a hell of a thing to also be asking how much say the athletic director has over his assistants. Then Bill Moos hired Scott Frost, the guy a whole lot of us thought would finally get everybody pulling in the same direction. By the time Frost was fired, you could sit down at any bar in Nebraska and hear three different versions of what went wrong. Everybody knew a guy who knew a guy. The one thing we all saw for ourselves was the football. Then Trev Alberts hired Matt Rhule and left for Texas A&M while the regents were still looking for Ted Carter’s replacement. Gov. Jim Pillen publicly called out the board over the delay. A week after Alberts left, Jeffrey Gold was named the priority candidate. While we were asking the football program to find some stability, look at what was happening upstairs. And now here we are, talking about another enormous buyout and fighting over whether the last guy, or the guy three coaches ago, was really the problem. Pick a decade and you can find a Nebraska fan who’ll tell you that’s when we screwed it all up. Hell, depending on the day, I might give you a different answer myself. I understand why people are pissed. I am too. I’d like to get to November and have the biggest argument in this state be whether we should go for it on 4th & 1. Instead, we’re back to debating who should be wearing the headset and how much it’ll cost to take it off him. Every time we say there’s nowhere to go but up, Nebraska finds another floor. And the worst part? We all know there might be a basement under that one, too. #huskers #Nebraska

Michael Milano might be kicking for a team soon 😂😂 #CollegeGameDay

I’ve got to be honest with you guys. I HATE firing coaches every 4 years. It’s getting OLD watching them fail and restarting again and again. This isn’t to suggest keeping Rhule. Just generally speaking, I’m getting tired of the carousel of failure due to perpetual instability.

YES. DANA. MORE. Carter Nelson and Luke Lindenmeyer, with Bonner shifting to fullback… Big dogs eatin’

Ah yes, let’s blame ESPN and a vast media conspiracy for the fact that you scored 16 in regulation at home vs a Minnesota team who got beat 38-13 at home by Mississippi State This ESPN boogeyman line out of the B1G has gotten just as tired as any line coming out of the SEC

I am beginning to think College Football has a bit of an attendance problem brewing. Look at the thread below to see the crowds yesterday at Oklahoma, Penn State, UCLA, TCU, Maryland, SDSU, and FSU. 🤯 What is the main cause? Unrealistic expectations? Economy? Apathy? Halloween? 🧵👇🏼

Husker Nation, we're all hurting. But to the fans wanting Rhule fired, I only have one question, how? We're tied at the hip until at least 2031. Best we can hope for is a new OC.

Justin evan’s saying the players need to keep the coach’s head up tells you exactly where rhule is. He’s defeated. Get him away from this program.
