Good call! Bo Pelini was the defensive coordinator under Solich and actually served as the interim coach in the bowl game, I believe. He understands the Cornhusker tradition and has a great resume (D-coordinator LSU now) as well as being an OSU grad and former player..... |

Many LSU fans are conceding Miles (since his camp is dying to go to UM), but confident in Pelini taking over. It would be interesting to see how that would play out. That also assumes that UM wants Miles, which seems to be very debatable these days.

Steve Glenn, a Nebraska offensive lineman in the late 1970s, said the firing of Pederson is "the best thing to happen to Nebraska football in 10 years," adding, it "lifts a cloud off the state of Nebraska."
Glenn said he hoped Osborne, 70, would take the interim AD's job.
"What a great man of integrity -- he could do great things for the university," especially if the team has to recruit a new coach, Glenn said.

Absolutely laughable. Osborne may have had integrity early on in his career, yet he clearly sold his soul to the devil in the early nineties to win a NC. Those championship teams were the greatest stain on college football since Switzer's time. Does anyone care to remember Christian Peters, Lawrence Phillips, or half a dozen others that were coddled and allowed to remain part of the program not to mention the obstruction of justice accusations towards Osborne that came out of the local DA's office.
Memo to Steve Glenn: winning =/= integrity!
As far as I'm concerned, what's happening to them now is simply a cosmic reckoning for the sins of the 90s.

I can count a good 12 IA coaches who should probably be gone by Dec. 31. Who are the up and coming head coaches that are going to get looks? Is it too soon for Kelly at UC? Among coordinators, Bo Pelini is a name that gets tossed around a lot, but I am not sure who everyone would be in a rush to get.
