Now why people are disappointed with the Pats, if I were a FB player, especially a defensive one I'd want to play for the best. And Bellicek is it. He's the Coach dub of pro football. Valentine must have showed some innate skills and potential to get on his radar, and I expect he'll do amazing things under this program. What a great opportunity (I can't say I feel that way about Dallas)

Did you just compare Coach Williams to Bill Belichek? I like Coach Williams, but Belichek is one of the top 2 or 3 football coaches in NFL history. I know Coach Williams is young, but let's have him accomplish things before making that comparison.

Obviously it was a loose one - my point being there's no better than Bellichek to learn from (made a quick edit as there was a typo that could be misinterpreted in the initial post), especially in a defensive position period. And that right now Coach Dub has a great reputation for teaching, enough that pros come back to train with him rather than their own position coach during breaks. Not sure why you'd take a comment that is positive and realistic for everyone involved and use it as motivation to come at me. I'm psyched that he's coming to New England. He'll do great things.
We had two third round NFL draft choices in the middle of the line last year and had what for production? We also had two other upperclassmen leave after the season, one in which the defensive coordinator was the last to know about his plans. The cherry on the top was that the defensive line coach was fired.
I think any criticism of Valentine was misplaced. This whole situation was a lot bigger than anything he did or didn't do.
I hope we get to a place where our level of concern about what we lose in the draft is about as high as Urb's.

LOL you're the most negative poster. All you do is bash the current staff, and go on trenchant rants about how great Bo was and how his roster was full of NFL talent.
There is a reason Coach Riley fired Hughes, and Valentine even stated he might have had pondered staying his senior year had Hughes been fired earlier. I got a newsflash for you since you did not get the memo, P E quadruple L N I is gone and is not coming back. The guy fell on some fortuitous coaching opportunities, and his entitled demeanor prevented him from reaching any meaningful level of success.
That being said, I am very happy for all the Huskers who were drafted. If it were not for a coaching change, Andy Janovich would have never sniffed the NFL. Until you have something meanigful to contribute to this board maybe you should go take your negative attitude and consider rooting for Youngstown.
This reference to Pelini is a bit misplaced in reference to both Riley's career and this past season, wouldn't you say?
Oh, and you need to buy a vowel.

LOL you might be the most misinformed/delusional poster. I seriously doubt I'm the most negative poster, but I'll own it if you want me to. Do I get a banner for it? Is 1989 your birthyear? You seem naive in your thinking/statements. I'm pretty sure I've never gone on a trenchant rant about how great Bo was, but if you say I did, could you please provide a link?. He and his staff definitely disappointed. I just don't think he was as horrible of a coach as others made him out to be. But he did have a scary face, so I'll give you that. I'm also pretty sure I never went on a trenchant rant about how his roster was "full of NFL talent", but if you say I did, then you should be able to provide a link?. I just objected to the numerous claims of others that the "cupboard was bare". His recruiting was lacking, but there was enough talent to win the games that were lost, so blaming the losses on the talent level of the players is asinine. I did get the memo that PE quadruple L N I is gone, and I've also seen the ever-changing memos as to the reasons why PE quadruple L N I is gone. I know he's not coming back, and I don't want him back, that would be silly, childish and wrong for many reasons, just like you describing him as PE quadruple L N I.LOL you're the most negative poster. All you do is bash the current staff, and go on trenchant rants about how great Bo was and how his roster was full of NFL talent.

Your statement about Andy is just speculation. How cute that somebody with 52 posts in 2 years criticizes the meaningfulness of my contributions and suggests who I should root for, and in conjunction with your obvious lack of perspective and perception as well. It's adorable!
