The Last Days of Danny Nee
By Sam McKewon
“I’d rather have a talented team with problems than an untalented team with a bunch of nice guys,” Nee told Lee Barfknecht. “Some of these guys are high-maintenance. But with talent, at least you have a chance to win.”
The last four weeks were ugly enough. Nee made his case consistently in public.
“If they’re going to fire me, they’re going to pay me,” he told Barfknecht. “And you can take that to church.”
He won his final home game over Colorado, eclipsing Joe Cipriano’s record for most wins at Nebraska. Asked to comment on his tenure at NU, Nee launched into a final defense of his time.
He ended with this line: “I pity the next son-of-a-b!^@h in here.”
Read this piece and tell me it's not eerily reminiscent of last Fall with Bo.
