Blackshirt tradition should be well-served by this hiring. Further, Pelini has the “X” factor when it comes to that intangible leadership quality.
Should be a great match, and I am looking forward to the combination of a good passing offense Callahan to his credit introduced, and the stingy, bone-crushing defense for which the Huskers used to be known.
Go Big Red!!!
ROCK ON! I am pumped as well! After the dismal Callahan years (with a few good games sprinkled in) I can’t wait to see a return to tradition, power and integrity in the Husker football program. As usual...I can’t wait for next year!!!
THE DARK AGE IS OVER. Because of Free Republic, I look at any press releases with suspect. This news conference is no different. I notice Tom Osborne listed attributes like leadership, inspiration and so forth. All of these attributes were noticeably absent during the dark ages. The best thing Callahan can do for Nebraska is to go coach a different Big 12 Team.
There’s no question he’s a great coach. As a non-Nebraska fan I’m going to miss teams scoring 50 against them, but I have a feeling it’s not going to happen anymore. Great move.
