"bill callahan is a good football coach" not really archie. He may be a smart coach ( i think he wanted to do too much with his offense, which is hard, even for an nfl team) but he is not a good coach. A good coach is smart, and knows how to motivate his players, and gets them to do better, i didnt see that too much, thank the lord he is gone

@drewbrown68 as a nebraska fan after texas game.. well see

[drewbrown68]

@bbender1986 hey, I'll take a well motivated 10-2 nebraska team that plays their hearts out over the callahan era 4, 5, 6, 7 loss seasons with a team that gave up as soon as things weren't going their way

[bbender1986]

@sintown13 it isn't going to matter nebraska messed up big by changing conferences..now no more Juco pud teams to get our first 3 wins in the beginning of the year..we have to play tough competition..and don't be surprised if we end up never better than 9-3 or 10-2 ..GO BIG RED...i know i'll get a lot of flame but as a true nebraska fan..i'm no ignorant to the truth.

It is so sweet to see Nebraska kicking ass ans Oklahoma struggling!

Solich just had a bit of a down period. I remember listening to Tom Osbore and Charlie Mcbride in the 90's saying how they never were close in having the top recruiting classes, yet produced one of the best dynasties in college football. Anyway i think solich would of won a few big 12 titles sooner or later,but who cares it seems like NU is getting much better

but look at nebraska now!!!!

[BradenNeddermeyer]

lol the "FIRE" was Pelini, and I know THAT to be true!

Archie says that Bill was a good coach, but the reason they were losing was bad defense. Well, shouldn't the coach take care of that part?

[spiderdragon1969]

Solich didn't get fired because he was a bad coach. He got fired because he wasn't recruiting. The guys Solich recruited were nowhere near as talented as Osborne's players. I think Solich should have stayed and the recruiting director fired. Callahan was a colossal mistake but he could recruit. Most of Pelini's current starters are Callahan recruits. That includes Suh, Asante and Crick.
