Eichorst Rant

I for one am sick of all the Fire Mike Riley comments! Anybody with half a brain needs to realize that will never happen until at least year 3! The university is not going to payout 3 different salaries for HC's-it's just won't happen. With that being said, why all the "Fire Mike Riley" talk? He didn't fire Bo, and hire himself. This was done by that clown SE. He is the one that needs to go! He is the one setting us back another decade at the very least! He and Perlman are a joke and need to be removed from the program! Perlman should have hired an AD with Nebraska ties, ie ex player or coach. Even if SE would have made a good hire at HC he will still be jumping ship to Wiscy as soon as that job becomes available. We need to find the right AD! Firing Riley won't do anything. Eichorst will just bring in another lackluster HC putting the same type of product on the field. This is Fing NEBRASKA! There is no excuse for this!

Sorry for my rant! I am becoming very frustrated with the state of the program! How much more of this crap are we going to take. SE needs to go now, and Perlman needs to rush into retirement.

 
So. You don't want Mike Riley to get fired, but you want to fire the AD who hired him in the first place. Hiring a new AD is almost guaranteeing the head coach will be fired.

 
is the real problem not perlman? always sabotaging our sports to help his own, unknown ulterior motives?

I have a theory that we angered a rich Oklahoma fan when we beat them up in the 90s. This person vowed to get even with Nebraska, and has been donating massive amounts of money, perhaps under the table, to decision makers at Nebraska. We are doomed until this guy runs out of money.

i need more plus ones for this one

 
Huskerfan92, I am not ready to fire Riley yet. He runs a completely different system then Bo. I still believe that he can do good things with his own players in here. It's hard to run a pro style offense with a QB that is an "athlete". We have to give the guy time. I don't want to cut him loose yet. In a few years, if things aren't improving and he isn't making the necessary changes, then yes! If you look at the first half of the season we were on lucks bad side. If we started out 4 or 5-0 would we even be having this convo. Most likely not.

 
This rant seems like..."I'm pissed off and want to be angry at someone. I don't know who I'm supposed to be angry and so might as well be angry at the AD".

You are angry at an AD who fired a guy who deserved to be fired.

 
I love when the idiots come out of the woodwork calling for the AD like they have a clue about running an athletic program at a power 5 school.

It's like watching good will hunting. A janitor that knows complex math equations.

But in "Good Will Hunting," wasn't the janitor really good at complex math equations? Or maybe I'm just missing your point.

I don't think Riley should be fired not should this hired be considered "bad" yet. Riley came into a very toxic environment and has brought an entirely new system in. I figured this year would be tough and I figured this would take more than a year to fix some of the problems the program had developed under Pelini. While I'm not happy with the results so far I am quite optimistic that Riley can win at Nebraska.

As far as the AD, I think you have to look at the entire athletic program as a whole while also giving Riley more than a year (half season) to determine the quality of the hire.
