Bo's Back: Pelini ready to lead LSU ‘D’ vs. Ohio State

LOL. There is truth to that. I tend to use a lot of what you say as examples in counterpoints.

There is one thing I've wondered (re: this thread and the Nebraska recruiting situation) based on some of the things I saw posted here a few weeks ago.

When there was a lot of talk of Miles to Michigan, there were a few threads that suggested Pelini be moved up to the HC position should Miles leave. Among the dissenting points was one that re-occurred often mentioning his recruiting. I can't recall if it ran along the lines of he didn't like recruiting, or if he wasn't very good at it. But, it was a major concern with some here and it was voiced frequently.

Now, looking back and forward, basing those views on what has been pointed out here, is it fair to wonder if he can indeed recruit the type of players Nebraska needs?

Ted Gilmore is the guy Pelini retained as recruiting coordinator but it has been mentioned in this thread that the recruiting focus is going to change and now they are looking at different types of players?

It's an intriguing situation to watch...

 

That will be interesting. It was like there was one post on here last year to that effect, when Pelini interviewed at a smaller school for the HC job. Everyone on here has repeated it (including me) but we heard it from someone on this board.

How true is it? I don't know. If Bo is aware of it (if it is true), and can he manage to it and get better at it? Probably.

As you say, it will be interesting to watch. I will pull for Bo, he gave his all to LSU, and is helping us to the end. It is apparent that he had a special bond with his players. After the SEC championship, he was by himself for a bit, then his players ran over to him and celebrated with him. I saw tears of joy coming out of Bo. I think his Tiger experiences will stay with him forever.

 

I will as well. I don't have same link as you do for Bo, but have appreciated Nebraska football for years. They used to be a very fun team to watch. I'm sure you know the type...have just a few plays in their arsenal, line up, and say, "Stop us if you can."

 

Bottom line to all this without all the bull is simple. This season and the staff is ending this thing the way it "should" end, in its own logical conclusion.

To the Tiger Nation-

I am looking very forward to watching Coach Miles' "damn strong football team" (God, I loved that quote!) completely dismantle tOSU tonight! There's no doubt in my mind that LSU will win this football game. The Husker Nation will be behind the Tigers 110%. I've seen a lot of LSU purple here in Nebraska tha last few weeks. GEAUX TIGERS!! GIVE EM HELL!!

Thanks Husker Pride for stopping by and all the nice support from Husker Nation! I'm happy you guys got the coach you should have had a few years back. We consider ourselves here at LSU fortunate to have had Bo the past few years coaching our defense. As you know, you now have your program back on track. Good luck to you guys and wouldn't it be great to meet up down here in New Orleans in 4 years to play for the NC.

Yep, great team Chemistry! I like our chances!
