Dismissed trainer says he helped Callahan land job (http://"http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/football/ncaa/02/24/bc.fbc.trainerdismissed.ap/index.html")

Quote
LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) -- Doak Ostergard contends Bill Callahan might not be at Nebraska if it weren't for a message Ostergard delivered to the school's athletic administration in January 2004.

Three years later, Ostergard is out as the Cornhuskers' head football trainer after Callahan asked for his resignation.

------

More than a week after his dismissal, Ostergard said he still doesn't know for sure why Callahan decided to dump him. He said he has his suspicions, but he didn't feel comfortable discussing them.

------

Ostergard said Callahan could be difficult to deal with, but that he didn't believe he had a rocky relationship with him.

"Anybody who works with him bumps heads with him at some time," Ostergard said.

Nubb: But this is different. It doesn't count.

KSUfans.com: Why?

Nubb: Because it deals with the Huskers, that's why.

KSUfans.com: That makes no sense. You ragged on KSU for firing their trainer. How is this different?

Nubb: We have 5 National Championships, ya know.

More obsessing about the Huskers?? Isn't this supposed to be a K-State forum?

The first step is admitting that you have a problem.

What problem?

We can't keep track of other Big 12 teams?

Silly little Husker.  A little sensitive aren't we?

Typical Husker tactic. Attack the messenger instead of addressing the message.

he wasn't doing his job preperly, he got fired.  As for helping Bc get the job that is a joke as well.  All he did was relay a message.  the fact that it may have came from him means nothing.  Because if it didn't come from him it would have come from anyone of 20 people in the program.

as a matter of fact he should be sucking callahans dick.  callahan wanted him gone a while ago.  However they let hiom stay on so that he could become elgible for retirement benafits.  Once he became elgible  they let him go.  Doak needs to walk away and thank god Pedey and BC allowed him to leave with his head held high.  They could have leaked why he was fired making him look bad and kicked him to the curb without retirement beafits but they chose to do the right thing.  For that they get blasted in the media.

Why do you hate your five NC's so much?  Does tradition just rub you the wrong way?

Shorty was a part of Ksu football since the dawn of time.

And his name is 'Shorty'. Seriously, when I hear about some guy that everyone loved and his name was Shorty I immediately think that he was some kind of lovable retard like Radio or something.

And lets face it, that makes firing him so much worse.

Yeah, a few people write some letters, and the Internet people say "everyone loved him" based on what a hand full of people say.

I've worked with people "everyone loved" who couldn't perform their job function for $hit, or got burned out on their job, and then couldn't perform for $hit . . . but everyone still loved them.

Not surprising that it's more interesting to talk about the relevant teams in the conference than your little Mildcats.

Yeah, I like to keep you guys honest. I also know how much you wish your team was as successful as the Huskers. So as a Husker fan, I'm here to share that experience with you so that you have something to aspire to.

Well, someday we hope to have meltdowns that can compete with your typical Cornhole State BBS meltdown . . . but since the realization has set in that Cornhole State footballs glory years have long since passed it by . . . the meltdowns are less nuclear.

yeah, I'm sure Doak Ostergard was Steve Pederson's right hand man when he was looking for a coach.  Gimme a break.  Billy C would have been in Lincoln with or without Doak's input.

Bottom line.  Billy C has no personal agenda.  No coach does.  Every coach wants to win.  Anything they view that gets in the way of winning will be eradicated.

Anyone that says otherwise was probably the same kid whining, "The coach hates me, that's why he doesn't play me."  but that same kid couldn't skate/shoot/pass/check worth a crap.  If you weren't playign it was because you weren't good.

If you got fired it was because you weren't good enough.
