“I was hoping they would of given Micky a chance. Did you hear the boys yelling his name when they carried the trophy to him. I think they had respect for him.”


^^^^the boys fucking think that 4-8 is a good record and that beating Cockeye is like winning the fucking National Championship. Our culture is so fucked that we are smoking cigars and parading around like we actually fucking won something yesterday

but let me tell you something fuckers. when we are at the end of our day when the sun sets and we are on our huge deck drinking whisky and we look back on the last 8 years, we can look at the shit smeared mona lisa and smile because today is a new day. a PROFESSIONAL is now in charge and Nebraska is going to actually look like some sort of resemblance of Nebraska in a couple years.

Shitting on Mickey is not the way, Mickey got a rough hand, and made a turd a lot more shiny. Rhule is the right choice, but Mickey for his faults as his HC made a 1 win team a 4 win team.
 
I would’ve been fine with Mickey, and I think at this point we need to give up the pretense that we shouldn’t celebrate the small successes, but it is definitely a breath of fresh air to have some brand new blood injected into the program.

Mickey would’ve been like being told we’re going to Outback. Rhule is a trip to The Drover. Both would leave me filled…but one is leaps and bounds over the other. Nebraska has a LOT of chain restaurants…so that’s the kind of meal these taters are happy to swallow every time.

Time will tell on your last paragraph. I hope you’re right.

The Rhule hire being an 8 year deal makes me nervous. I'm hope he will be a good coach but he was never someone I was stoked about. I always thought that giving Mickey a couple years with a lowish salary and incentives could have been an option but....well it's a fuckin gamble no matter what you do.

I'm gonna do what I do every year, get overhyped in the off season and hate myself in the fall...GBR

I'll be ok with the 8 years if it's a declining buyout.
 
This whole “give Mickey a chance”

He had free rein of the program for 3/4 of the year. That’s a fucking chance. He’s not a head coach, that’s ok.

Also - for any leader - general rule of thumb is this: don’t let 20 year old men decide the future of your football program. They are here to play, not make lasting decisions that affect the trajectory of our program

Mickeys clock management alone was enough for me to say no.

Well when you're 4-8 and beating a team on the road in a game you weren't supposed to have any chance in I'd say that's something.
 
He’s a bit crazy but he makes some good points. I still love that video from the Minnesota game.
