Calling for Callahan's job

[Blaze_1UP]

For those who watched the Cotton bowl I have to say Callahan's play calling is horrible 4 and 1 on there own 20 and he calls for a fake punt why not just line up and go for it with Brandon Jackson he only averaged 9 yards a carry in the game but no lets run Marlon Lucky the whole game and forget about what Jacksons done c'mon Callahan's killing me

i hate him, he has ruined the tradition of NU and who the hell calls a fake punt in your own zone, this guy sucks......fire his ass and beg tom osborne to come back...alright, we tryed this stupid west coast off., now lets get back to what works, old fashioned pound the rock football, farm boy style.....i really hate bill callahan, probably more than SEC hates franchoine......

When was the last time you guys played in a New Years day bowl. Carr's head maybe but not Callahan.

It's not the West Coast offence it's Callahan. He'd suck running the smashmotuh game, run-shoot, four corners, neutral zone trap... you name it.

As a CU fan I pray for Callahan's job security.

Nebraska made the switch because they felt tey wouldn't be able to get recruits running the opton especially after Eric Crouch's epic flame out at the pro level.

there are so many guys who can run that type of offense, it won them numerous big 12 titles and a few NC.....i don't think NU really cares all that much about them being successful at the pro level, they just care about winning

I said here before the season started this staff can,t adjust during a game and they proved it countless times this year

Callahan can't adjust during season. Gruden leaves the Raiders, after a whole year of running the team he meets the old coach in the super bowl and hasn't changed the adibles or play book. It must have been like cheatng on a test for the Bucs.

Beating up on patsies and losing to ranked teams. It was an inflated record and everyone knew it.

In the eighties there was allways talk that osborne couldn't win the big one with three yards and a cloud of dust. Option football would never win a championship,the 90's proved you can win with the option.......with good personel and coaching. this AHOLE A.D. thinks WCO makes it easier to recruit is b.s. we used to have our nitch that brought in great O linemen, backs, tight ends option qbs now we are competing more with USC, Florida schools. If you were 18 would you rather have a beach or a corn field and snow out your window

Oh I'm well aware Nebraska students would rather be somewhere else besides Nebraska.

However judging by the ratings Recruiting doesn't seem to be a problem. Other teams win with the west coast and proir to the switch the Huskers were losing with the option.

Solich was fired before the bowl last year and and Peini coached them to the bowl win. And this was a ridiculously easy schedule that had a grand total of 2 ranked teams one of which fell out of the pollsafter opening day never to return.
