there is no coach on the planet that can overcome those facilities

It would be an incredible hire for them, right? Seems totally feasable, too, right?

yes. yes.

They needed to find a guy who for sure wouldn't punitively rape players and coaches.

It's great because they can't hire Bo. They fired Mangino for being mean and no is mean. They have to hire some loser.

It's amazing how Nebraska can keep finding such unlikeable coaches.

I believe I have posted this story before but it is much more relevant today

I think Riley is admirable in this story, but I understand people who think the complete opposite. It is actually a 3 article series, I'd recommend all three.

Well, Bill did have the advantage of only having to overtake the likes of Nebraska.

Even if this was true (pro tip: it's not) he didn't do anywhere near the job of it Snyder did here. Plus this would be like someone hiring Snyder after the '05 season.

Riley lost at Oregon State and then went to the NFL. Then Erickson took the job and started winning a lot of games pretty much immediately. Then Riley came back and slid to mediocrity. He didn't build crap, and really just proved that a good coach can have a lot of success at OSU, and a mediocre coach will be mediocre.

Manhattan is a super easy job. The fact that we didn't find some loser mediocre enough to win before Bill is the wtf part.

I think Kelly handled that better than most coaches would. Although the "bad choice" comment was wrong.

Yeah, he may be the only coach in America that would have even talked to the Oregonian
