Riley’s Reflections on Nebraska

[Show Me State Red]

I think blaming Riley is misplaced. The blame falls on Eichorst. Riley should never have been hired in the first place. I don't think MR tried to purposely damage the program. He jumped at a big opportunity like most of us would do and then he proceeded to do what he's always done. Unfortunately it was WAY BELOW our standards.

I'm just glad Frost is here now.

Good post. It is all about where we are right now and right now is good.

Bad coach + toxic AD = Getting Scott Frost. Not so bad in the big picture.

A painful way to do it, but a good end result.

He deserves a statue. Because of him, we have SF & the future has not looked brighter in a long, long time. Thank you MR!

I have certainly agreed in the past that Eichorst was to be blamed for the hiring or MR and some of the things that were tied to his 3 year tenure here. But I'm not going to overlook the incompetence of the part of his job he was responsible for. Do I blame him as a person or think he is a nice guy? Yes. But most people here are concentrating on his coaching performance.

. Time for RDS (Riley Derangement Syndrome) to end.

And how long have we held onto Bo Derangment Syndrome? Just saying its going to take some time depending on what side of the fence you were on.

Regardless of the outcome of his years here, he doesn't deserve the vitriol I've seen spewed on here about him. He is a gentleman and handled all the turmoil with grace and dignity. I truly believe he loved being here, and NOT just the money. I don't think he had ever been in an organization with the kind of fan support there is for NU. And his contributions to the program exist off the field - especially how he gave his love to the Foltz family as they grieved. Time for RDS (Riley Derangement Syndrome) to end.

Go get a similar quote from FHCBP or FHCBC. You won't ... because they are petty, self-involved narcissists. Having endure all three regimes I'd much prefer FHCMR.

I personally believe much of FHCMR's failure belongs to attached to FADSE.

You are right. Very different personalities. All had their flaws. Only MR left here with class.

He’s got that warm fuzzy feeling that people get after someone sticks 6 million bucks in your pocket.

Only 6 million?

Have to agree with @MyBraska, leaving with class and dignity will tend to endear you with fans. Saying F those fair weather fans. Then telling the players they would be better off leaving the program after being fired. Tends to make fans resent any thought of you.
