What's dumb is calling other posters dumb. You're really amped up lately. Hope everything's okay.Yes they have more stringent entrance requirements, but to suggest he didn’t struggle is, once again, dumb.

Hmm … Gene Stallings did win a National title at ‘bama in ‘92 and has already been inducted into CFB Hall of Fame (2011).Good lord…no. Should every nice guy be in the hall? How about gene stallings? Mike Riley? Gary Gibbs? I realize some very average/poor coaches are in the hall but frank should not be 1 of them.
Precisely the mediocre coaches that are already inductedHmm … Gene Stallings did win a National title at ‘bama in ‘92 and has already been inducted into CFB Hall of Fame (2011).
Many Nebraska fans don’t believe SF has struggled at Nebraska.Many Nebraska fans would have gladly taken that kind of struggling the last 5 years.![]()
He did struggle at GT. Look at the records??You didn't say any of that previously. You just said he struggled at GT, which is not at all accurate.
You might not live under a rock but you certainly make a lot of inaccurate statements.
Back to Frank: I think he's right below the threshold to get in. A lot of very good accomplishments but I just don't know if it's enough.
Ok … I’ll take your word on that sir — I’m just from Shinola now via 15 years spent in Dakota County.Precisely the mediocre coaches that are already inducted
I’m great. Thanks. Hope you are as well. I didn’t call any direct poster dumb. Sometimes, you just hear things that don’t even make the tiniest bit of sense, like all common sense just isn’t there, and It likely never was. I’ll be a bit more selective with the words. Apologies to anyone offended.What's dumb is calling other posters dumb. You're really amped up lately. Hope everything's okay.
The wheels came off in Norman in October 2000. That’s the day things began to change. Never should have lost that game. They adjusted, NU bent over and had no answer. 2001 was a mirage of things to come, covered up by an amazing QB. Hard to see then, but looking back, to me, that was the day the mojo was taken. Nebraska was the big dog then, and they let a team on a roll take it from them.I think if it were anyone other than Solich, most folks here wouldn't give him a sniff for HOF. Nebraska HOF, no doubt. National HOF? Nope. If there was a HOF for nice guys, maybe, I don't know.
While he had a 75% win rate at NU, the wheels fell off at the end of the 2001 season and IMO we never recovered our mojo. Yes he was somewhat handcuffed with an aging staff and was jobbed by Pederson, but he was handed a well oiled machine and he let it rust.
He was 58% at Ohio and 63% for his career.
He had just 1 conference championship in the 2nd year of his 21 year career.
He was 7-9 in bowl games that he coached. Not too bad, actually, but nothing to write home about.
These are not stellar numbers.
Yet the very next year we went 11-0 until the Blowout in Boulder and Miami Massacre. 2002 we go 7-7 and Solich is on his way out the door. We'd been bushwacked by OU but not by Colorado. Boulder was a disaster for NU football.The wheels came off in Norman in October 2000. That’s the day things began to change. Never should have lost that game.

Didn’t really beat a real good team except OU in 2001, and they lost their QB. I think that October day in Norman, in 2000, put the wheels in motion. 22 years later, still chasing mediocrity, much less alone mojo.Yet the very next year we went 11-0 until the Blowout in Boulder and Miami Massacre. 2002 we go 7-7 and Solich is on his way out the door.

Stallings has 2 accomplishments to his credit as a head coach in college football. 1) Upsetting the hurricanes and winning the title in 1992 and 2) putting the crimson tide back on probation. Did he even win a conference title outside of 92? Ever? At a place like Alabama where you have to fight off some of the best kids in the country every year. Sure he road the coat tails of bear Bryant and Tom Landry as an assistant (sound familiar) but had a loosing records every chance he got outside of Tuscaloosa and had to cheat to win there. stallings is lower on the totem pole than frank, in company with the likes of schnellenburger and chizik and has no place being in the hall.Ok … I’ll take your word on that sir — I’m just from Shinola now via 15 years spent in Dakota County.
Pity … I’ll work on the smell, but that is something I remember well growing up in SSC.Stallings has 2 accomplishments to his credit as a head coach in college football. 1) Upsetting the hurricanes and winning the title in 1992 and 2) putting the crimson tide back on probation.

Perhaps your criteria is limited to automatic qualifiers for cheating your way into natties and that’s fine, we can disagree. Otherwise maybe you should check your shine box it kinda stinks.
