Fishpants is making cranberry cakes

All of Bobby's comments are either excuses, such as... he just got there, or are all about the future...that they WILL get better, but just not right now because...we just started and we're building...lol There wasn't anything in the comments mentioned here about how guys had to be more accountable now, today or even next week. It's an easy game when your level of achievement and accomplishment can never be measured. He's always pushing that day into the future, extending the time line, instead of being critiqued and accountable today!! It's a no-lose game...lol What a guy! I think he wants to say that they are still in their "exhibition season" so badly, but even he realizes that won't be well received by the other coaches and players who are busting their butts today.... in real time! :rolleyes:

Bobby Boy at his best.


Diaco said he expects every one of his defenders to be better the next time they play after Saturday's Buckeye experience.

"So as a coach, the silver lining of this dark, miserable cloud, the silver lining is that the players are improving through experience. And then overall, the unit, brick by brick, building, the unit is building, It'll become the type of unit in time ... we are just getting started. we are just getting started.

"I mean, I just got here," Diaco continued. "These players are playing, a lot of new players are playing. We are just getting started with our unit, we're getting started with our culture which has been under spectacular amount of strain and attack, but we're just getting started...

Diaco finished with an optimistic thought about his young players after a miserable night. It's one he has to believe, and they have to believe, even if many on the outside will be full of doubt.

"They're going to be really good," he said, "and we're going to be really good."

There's that word spectacular again. When have we heard that before? He must have memorized all the words in some power word dictionary...spectacular, superlative, benevolent, etc.
 
So how many wins has he been involved in over the last 3+ years- 14 wins? What culture is that- to me that is a losing culture. He spreads wherever he goes.

Miserable night, miserable night, MISERABLE NIGHT. He lost me on the word culture in November, 2014 when he threw whitmer under the bus after the army debacle at yankee stadium. Fast forward to last year and the ridiculous transition from sherriffs to Williams-he is the last guy that should be talking about culture.

His biggest problem with the players is once they get by the translation of his malapropian analogies and inane metaphors, they run smack in the face of his disingenuous praise.

Damn you for making me use a dictionary!
 
Could Bob Diaco's days be numbered?

Nebraska has hired Bill Moos away from Washington State to be its new athletic director.

Moos' comment about midseason firings is valid. I think come the end of the season we will see a complete coaching change at Nebraska.

Allowing a TD every single time an opponent's 1st team O was on the field (8 total) and giving up > 600 yards and > 40 first downs may not be a great way to win

It's an awesome way to win...oh you meant for Diac-uh-oh's defense! Well it's not that OSU got a great win...being pre-season, oh wait that wasn't preseason? Oops, well I'm sure he can make a rivalry trophy, just get some wood, some nails, some barb wire, and some duct tape, wrap it up and call it the "Try Hard". Or perhaps he can make a placard, frame his pants, and call it the bloody mess trophy...I'm sure tOSU will cherish whatever it is...being a new rivalry, it's bound to go over Yuge!
 
Does anyone else see that little cherubic face and just have an urge to punch it? Can't stand even looking at him, and when he opens his mouth all I hear con-job.
 
Was at the game. Team has totally quit on the staff. Them (and everyone) will throw a blank check at Scott Frost.

"Nebraska was a dead program walking, look at the trends" and has made 4 conference title games in the last 10 years. Think they'll be fine.
 
I love the Diaco hate in this thread. Pretty much because it reminds me that it's not just me.

No they won't. They are cooked. It's over. Wait until the hilarious coaching search.
 
For all the tradition and support, Nebraska is just not a job that any quality coach with options is going to want. It is the sixth best team in the BIG (fighting it out with Iowa) and it's fan base is going to run out anyone who doesn't win the league regularly.

Totally disagree. They are in the Big 10 West which is not that strong with Wisconsin, Northwestern, Illinois, Iowa, Purdue, and Minnesota. That's not like the Big 10 East and Nebraska should be able to win the West fairly consistently. And, with winning brings better recruits which brings more winning.... Mike Riley was a horrible choice for head coach, but it was a difficult coaching search. This time, you have a head coach that is the perfect fit for Nebraska and he is proving to be pretty good at UCF, Scott Frost. And, Frost's UCF experience will help Nebraska recruit Florida.

Poor Disastro - Scott Frost is gonna embarrass him again. Last time it was the fake trophy left at the Rent, now its booting him from Nebraska as the new HC come December. Will this all happen on Xmas day again?
 
How are fishcakes with...errr...corn oil?

Where does Diaco go after Nebraska. Please tell Holy Cross -- DO NOT HIRE HIM!!! On paper, he may look good, but in reality he is the pits!!!

Yeah, he would likely have two buyouts plus whatever salary he can pull next year. He'll get a job somewhere, even if it's LB coach in the NFL. You don't get to DC at ND under Brian Kelly with just smiles and handshakes.
