Frost and Pelini, with Frost only a slight nod ahead. Then Callahan, then Riley. I was hopeful and optimistic about all of them, though really, because I choose to be that way. I took Solich as a given and wasn't really evaluative. Osborne I was too young to have an opinion, but not by much. Definitely wanted Pelini ahead of Gill, even though I loved Gill as a player.
 

Yes, it was something like that...and I merely agreed.

However, you clearly did say that YOU were an idiot, not your hopes. Your hopes were just the reason behind your claim to be an idiot.

Here is your statement...

This thread proves that I am an idiot.... for my hopes.

I understand that you are not calling yourself a total idiot, just an idiot in this particular case.

Anyway, its always nice when people agree with you, yes?

:Corn2:

I'll get him a shirt that says Paramus agrees with him... he'll love it! :cool:
 
I'm not going to lie, I was intrigued with the Gill hire, but I honestly thought that Bo would bring us that Charlie McBride D, and an updated Osborne offense.... I was stoked..... Boliever, yeah, I suppose I was........

There were flashes in there of greatness, for sure.

At UW (beatdown)
At Okie State (beatdown)
Beating Clemson, GA, and spanking AZ
Spanking down KSU at their place
Keeping OU from scoring a TD in Lincoln
Beating Texas, minus 1 second
Beating MSU and PSU on the road
Within a shade of beating VA Tech there

We got beat down a few times during the pelini era, but we darn sure bloodied some noses, too.

The opponent always knew it was going to be a fight at least.
