Paging Mr. Stevie P. The 20 year curse is over. You are never allowed back in the state.Just watched the interview with Solich and a reporter actually asked Frank about the curse.
Frank said it wasn't his family who put a curse on anyone but if they had there would be a few others with a curse on them.
Great video for Solich return
- Thread starter HuskerOH_rivals315145
- Start date
3 top ten recruiting classes according to rivals (and it's forerunners). 99, 01, 02.
I've been quite critical of Solich as a HC, but today feels like a day where we pause the analysis and speculation of his HC trajectory and appreciate his contributions to the team as player, assistant coach, and head coach.
Eh. I went to all of those games, fellas. All of them. Including the Rose Bowl. Yes, he got some wins, and I’m not giving HCSF a pass, at ALL, but the direction from dominance to mediocrity occurred under Frank… it was FAST, and it was OBVIOUS. ANYTHING he was credited with comes off TO’s coattails. Sorry, I just don’t see it the way you do. Bo had a lot of faults, but he’s the best we’ve had since TO. IMHO.
Was I the only one who watched us decline so quickly, or is he your uncle or something? He was NOT a great head coach. We were great when he took over, and embarrassing when his we fired his ***.
Name which other coach we so rapidly declined under?
Never had a losing season and his dismissal was handled horribly by a tone deaf AD Big difference between Frank and Scott.
He wasn’t a terrible head coach. He wasn’t a great head coach either. He had the misfortune of following one of the best ever at any school.
All good points. I just don’t remember a head coach who was at the helm of such a DECLINE. It’s just what sticks in my head with Frank. We got measurably worse. Worse with Riley.
There is no doubt that Frank’s recruiting was spotty. The roster was a mess when he was fired and I think things would have gotten worse quickly just due to the roster situation. That said, Pederson handled it poorly. He probably should have let Frank have one more year. Honestly I think Bo and Carl had a big hand in Frank getting canned when they did. I can’t believe Tom let Bo bring Carl back. Frank warned him.
Carl was pure entertainment. Made Tunnel Walk of Shame Legend…
Pederson was horrible, but Eichhorst was worse. Will goto my grave believing that ginger Wisconsin f*cktard was a Trojan horse purposefully installed to destroy the entirety of our athletic program. He gave us Mike Riley, lol…
Consider that we went with Frank instead of Bob Stoops. How much did THAT affect the trajectory of Husker football?

Barry was in town this week. Maybe he was trying to curse the program even more? You guys should run with that.

The whole “so and so is intentionally trying to tank the program to end up getting fired” is literally the most idiotic, retarded thing parroted here.
Frank Solich sucked. You can put lipstick on a pig and it's still a pig. We thank him for his service at NU and come together to support Coach Rhule. No amount of time will ever change the fact that Solich sucked as head coach at NU.
Fine. Solich sucked, but Frost REALLY sucked.
I guess that's a shortened version to my response to Tetonia's question.
One thing Tetonia was right on with is that Eichorst was worse.. Still the worse AD we’ve ever had..
No one sucked more than Scott Frost. We can all agree on that. I never knew Jennings. Was before I born. I just don't see how you lose at Nebraska. I could show up and win more than 3-4 games a year. How does Scott Frost hold that job for over 4 years?
