How about Bo Pelini next WVU HC?
- Thread starter WVU80ate_rivals
- Start date
I don’t like it. I’d rather have Clemson DC if he’d be willing. I think we need a good coordinator with excellent recruiting ties I don’t know who that is but Bo is not a players coach IMO which hurts his ability to recruit. He’s a good coach but not sure he can get kids to come
Bo Pelini didn't really fail at Nebraska...
Expectations are unreachable.
They will never compete on a National Level again unless they recruit Top 10 classes.
Bo Pelini at Nebraska was 67-27.
Pelini is an *******. He is intense and rubs people the wrong way.
He didn't blow smoke up Nebraska's ***.
When he called their fans Fairweather and it was released it was the last straw

If you believe anything coming out of Lincoln about Pelini I have some things to sell you .
Most of the attacks are about his brother Carl who was the DC.
He is accused of adultry and drug use.
Bo Pelini is just accused of being an *******.
Like I said he isn't the one to tell you how great you are.
Nebraska fans live in a fantasy and Pelini called them out on it.
He wanted to work to get back to that level.

He finished every year at Nebraska with at least 9 wins.
Only person to do this at Nebraska for 7 years straight at Nebraska since Tom Osborne.
Four other coaches have failed.
Took over Nebraska that was a mess and won 9 games.
Didn't go 4-8 like Scott Frost.

Frank Solich is the Anti Christ to those people...
They live in delusions.
Nebraska without the Big 8 would be just another team.
They got by in the 60's to 1995 because they could build a program and in a bad year only lose 2 games.
Oklahoma was there only true challenge.
They could not compete with the SWC and the talent in Texas.
The Big XII proved this.
But ..
Bo Pelini was getting them back to being able to get over the hump.
He was like someone that was swinging an axe at a tree.
It was going to come down sooner or later.
"When he (Pelini) called their fans Fairweather and it was released it was the last straw"
Oh, he'd love it here!
Oh, he'd love it here!
Nebraska's two best RB were criminals.
Lawrence Phillips and Johnny Rogers.
Rogers robbed a liquor store with a gun..
But got off because their former Congressman and Coach Tom Osborne acted like it was a joke...
People don't pull a gun on a clerk and walk out with the money as a joke.
Nebraska fans even today still believe it was a joke...
Even thought Johnny was arrested later after his football career

I’d like for Bo to be our next HC and have posted in the past that we should have hired himas a DC. Excellent coach in my opinion and one that doesn’t ******** around.
Bo Pelini could have done a better job with the media....
But people were attempting to sabotage him at Nebraska and he lashed out.

No doubt. I’d say Bo is built in the model similar to Saban with his attitude and how he handles the media. Saban is one of those who don’t play up with the media and he doesn’t have to cause the winning speaks for most of everything.
After the way they supposedly treated Solich, I doubt any coach not named Tom Osborne is given any real chance to succeed by the Department and Fanbase at Nebraska. I was too young to remember the Solich days but it seems he got the raw end of the deal when he coached there.
Just put the band back together.........
1. Rich Rod
2. Casteel
Just tell Magee that we don't hire black people, since he already believes that.

Solich is the scapegoat...
You hear it when Scott Frost throws Red Meat to the fanbase..
He wants to get back to Nebraska football...
Solich was Osborne's right hand man.
Osborne is a coward to me. He took off because his county scholarships and Prop 48 partial qualifiers ended in the Big XII.
He left Solich holding the bag.
Pelini never threw Red Meat.
This is why I think Frost may not be the coach to turn around Nebraska.
They need someone to kick the lid up and bring reality to Nebraska .

If you can’t go .500 in division 2 why should you get a power 5 job again. And with his attitude you really think he can get more 4 and 5 star kids to come to wvu gimme a break
He is FCS...
Because Youngstown St fell apart after Jim Tressell left.
Pelini had them playing for a NC his second year.
Rebuilding FCS programs are not done overnight.
At the FBS level Pelini has won.
I want Brett Ventables who can do both I like the fiery guy that players like I’ve said but I don’t know if he’d come or not. If I was hiring I’d want a fiery guy that can recruit in our natural recruiting grounds.... someone young and energetic...
Pelini is tailored made for WVU
Previous Big 12 experience at Nebraska
Won in Big 12. Averaged 9 wins
Current HC at Youngstown. Short drive to Morgantown. Therefore, Knows recruiting in this area and region
Plays tough defense
Traditional smash mouth football like WVU was known for
Brings attitude and toughness to the program.
Everyone has their own choices, but this would be my first choice.

I actually like a coach who is openly standoff-ish and a bit of a jerk. I don't want my coach to act like a politician and be polite and act like he's a role model wanting to be president one day when we all know behind closed doors he's really at best a big jerk. I mean I still would rather have a jerk than a jerkoff.
With that said, Bo Pelini is crazy mad and just a shade or hair to the sane side of Phil Elmasion. You got to be darn insulting to have Nebraska open with glee over firing you because of how you acted. He was as rude as anybody and really bitter and Nebraska people are not that bad. Idk.
As for Bo, nahhh. He's too crazy.

Venables was ran out of the Big XII...
I like him. He can coach.
Some of his defenses at OU were thristy.
But...
Venables is not as great as many think.
Pelini himself was considered the Golden child at DC.
He won a NC at LSU with Les Miles
He finished every year at Nebraska with at least 9 wins.
Which is kind of what we have now
What does everyone think of maybe grabbing Gene Chizik for DC if we don't go after Pelini for HC or DC?
I think the Hc needs to make that decision. No more of ad helping make those decions like when holgs couldn’t get it right... and I like Dana I think he knows he’s gone as far as he can and I understand him leaving
I believe he is done coaching. He seems to enjoy what he is doing, and is doing a nice job getting YSU and the city to work together and improve both. Plus he looks much older and not as fit anymore. I think he has move on to a different stage in life. More likely politics if he wants to do something else
I know it's not a sexy hire but Curt Cignetti has done well everywhere he has went, and he is an alum .
