To be fair Nebraska got their #1 target. We settled (in not complaining, I like the hire) on Choice #20 (give or take a couple).

No offense Yankee, but I don’t think we settled on anybody. The initial coaching search under Currie doesn’t even count....fix was in for Schiano, and when that didn’t pan out, it went totally off the rails, zig zagging all over God’s creation with no rhyme or reason.

So, in my mind, there’s no way to say where Pruitt fell on the pecking order....other than he was Fulmer’s first choice, the only guy Phil offered, and he said yes.

Pruitt needs to stfu and coach... it his job to put a winning team on the field, if players aren’t playing their best he better damn sure find a way to change that.... as a teacher myself it is my experience and many professionals advice not to belittle student or student athletes in order to change that. Just my two cents, aight!

Tell him to learn some proper English, he’s embarrassing himself!

I went today but was reminded of all the reasons I don’t get season tickets. The red shirt and hat tv dude was enough for me to remember to watch this year from the comfort of my home with a beer in my hand!

We had a grand total of four turn us down. Brohm (and that one’s iffy that we even OFFERED him going by the Currie info). Gundy, Cutcliffe (what benefit was this effort going to be at his age?) and Doeren, who was all in until the students rioted at the basketball game screaming “fire Currie”. Fulmer got it done in less than a week...amazing leadership.

You just said you were a teacher and know running people down isn’t the best way to teach them so ... shouldn’t you be encouraging him to learn how to spell his name instead of making fun ? #CoachesHaveFeelingsToo

Disagree. Had he said “NC winning Head coach”, then your statement would be correct. But as a “coach”, he’s in possession of 5 NC rings, because he was a big part in helping win those NCs. Every coach assembles a staff to help him coach up his players and win games, they ain’t doing it alone.

Disagree all you want, doesnt make you right. The statement made was we hired a nc winning coach. Google nc winning coach, his name is not on any list. If the fluff behind the rings stuff makes you feel better thans fine, its fluff.

So he should shut up and you shouldn’t right? Like we care more about what you think than what he thinks?

I don’t remember hearing why he put off the autograph session but I think it’s a good way to actually increase fan participation . Doing it this way the fans and players have contact in the spring game and then he is going to have an open practice for a meet and greet with the team before the season starts .

I specifically said students and student athletes, he is neither. Full grown man who doesn’t know how to speak publicly or to the media.... it feels like he is trying to give the savanna interview however he couldn’t fill that mans jock yet so it comes off as ignorant.

Dont have to think for myself in considering factual information. I look at a list of nc winning coaches, CJP is not listed. I could think about the list all i want, it doesnt change the list.
