Funny, he technically will have actually underperformed statistically. Crazy to think one can do worse than .543 (when Nebraska hired him). At least Riley excelled and outperformed in one category: losing.We got what a lot of people said was a ".500 coach". When he is done at Nebraska, his record will be 19-19. How ironic is that?
Mike Riley has lost 172 games as a head coach. Let that sink in. How many head coaches can lose that many games and still be employable at the top level?
