(Theoretically of course) What would your reaction be if you heard Tom Osborne had been contacting coaches scaring off some he doesn't approve of?

[MtnHusker]

Just throwing that out there. And fuck Jim Pillen and his dirty TC too. Turd I feel for you as it appeared you were trying to do what was best for the program.

 

[Papa...Football]

Furious, but not entirely unbelievable!
Your time has passed Dr.

 

[Dr.DrakeRamoray]

I have a bad feeling this is no theoretical

 

[HuskerGarrett]

TO and I are great friends (see profile pic). I would first be befuddled that he figured out how to use a phone. That crusty MF usually makes me page him whenever he wants to hang out (see profile pic). Then, it wouldn’t surprise me. He’s kind of out of it (see profile pic).

 

[hothouse_corn]

While theoretically possible, it would be weird and very improbable.

TO speaks slower and lower than the Don in Godfather, and is harder to hear/comprehend than Don Vito Corleone these days. Is that why these supposed coaching candidates are intimidated? I don't know. There would have to be offers they either can't or must refuse.

 

[Walter Sobchak]

Not surprised at all. Fuck the TC, Pillen and their ilk

 

[DuckSker]

TO is not making any phone calls by himself, the dudes becoming a borderline vegetable.

Also, the last coach he hired won 9 or more games every season. I’d take that

And I'm sure you'd be happy to settle for Leipold, Mickey, Monken or Kleiman. Keep protecting the man who protected our last coach even though he was failing miserably

 

[Jim14510]

I would laugh and call bullshit.

Then I'd wait to see who we hired.

 

[HuskerGarrett]

I also for some reason just imagined this scenario.

Matt Rhule (eating cheesy poofs on his sofa). Ring ring

MR- “Hello?”
TO -“nfkanbeibfkanbej”
MR- “Excuse me, what?”
TO- “jabmg it’s doctor thom ozbrne”
MR- “oh hello Mr. Osborne it’s great to hear from a legend such as yourself.”
TO- “go fuck urself matthew. Lincoln is mine.”

Hangs up

Do you and @DuckSker have a history of disagreeing, or is this just a weird post? I'm not a message board historian, so I really don't know.

@MtnHusker, can you elaborate on what you think or have heard that TO was telling the potential NHCF's that would turn them off to the gig?

If I'm guessing, it was "you know there is a huge preference up here for bass, but there are far more crappie. So, do you like bass or crappie?"

We made him put a dollar in the cookie jar every time he mentions the words “tradition coalition” and now he’s pissy 😉

Tom Osborne and the “tradition coalition” are an easy target. In reality it’s a lot of things put together

How full is that jar now?

I've been Anti-Frost and Anti-TC for a few years. Duckster has been a bit of a Frost/TO apologist. Pretty rare for us to agree on things like keeping/firing Frost. I said "Theoretically" as to not get rosted by the Pro TC/TO crowd. I never once said it happened. I do stick by my trusted sources when I do hear stuff and lets just say I was quite depressed after the last message I got on the coaching search.

After the last month and a half i’d say it’s overflowing

I am surprised you are even on this board. Dollar Dean and his Frost Fluff Club seem more your speed as you have a similar mindset to the potatoes that populate that board. Drink up that FakeNews that Dollar Dean and Simple spread. This board was created to share content open mindedly and I can always count on you to comment on anything negative we post about this subject. Some of it is correct and sometimes it isn't. Not all rumors and inside info end up being correct but your protecting of Frost/TC/To has been consistent.

I'm sure you are already a VIP Member of this site.

You’re the only one here who is obsessed with tradition coalition and TO. Is the brain eating amoeba that just popped up in the Elkhorn river TO and TC’s fault too?

I get it, we want to justify why this program sucks. Maybe it’s because we are in the middle of nowhere with nothing to do and no more steroids. Maybe it isn’t all our 3 time national champion former coaches fault. The downfall of this program was firing Solich… did TO want him fired?

 

[hothouse_corn]

So basically my posts in this thread did nothing but fire up the feud that I wasn't aware of between @DuckSker and @MtnHusker.

I was trying to make my posts substantive. SMH.

 

[tman87]

I'd be pissed. I love T.O. for many reasons, but if he is meddling to that level on this hire to where it fucked us, I would be very pissed. I think he should let the 50 something yr old Alberts take the reigns completely and step away. If he wants updates, OK, here is your update, but Turd should do what he thinks best for the program and not be swayed by T.O.

IDK what level of influence T.O. has at this point, I am hoping not a lot. Maybe we will find out. Maybe not.
