How soon is too soon to make the inevitable Pelini hire.

[UncleChesterton]

Clearly, Bo isn't our first choice. Something like Bret Bielema and his bulimic, vitriolic trophy wife would obviously be ideal

Failing in that, I'm thinking Bo is ready for a bump up from 250-300K per year and relative obscurity. We know he's got drive and passion and some other things. I think this is a win/win for Iowa, particularly since the Nebraska game would be his super bowl and we might start winning that at a higher rate.

 

[Qued18]

Think it would be more likely a program such as Iowa st or Kansas maybe Illinois would go after him.

 

[JStandefer]

Bo actually makes about $1.7M/yr for the next 4 years due to the UN stipend.

 

[GretnaShawn]

If you don't like your assistant coaches now, you should wait and see the circus of unqualified coaches he drags to town with him.

 

[icu81222]

Trolls going to troll.

 

[littleton tiger]

I Don't see Bo coaching big-tine football any time soon. He's toxic, obnoxious, bombastic and not a good head coach.

 

[Wingman137]

I could see him being a D-Coordinator with a "name" school. Then back to head coaching a Big 5 school a few years later.

 

[gojojo]

I'm assuming this is a troll job, but it is obvious he is a DC and not a HC.

Pelini is not anything Iowa would want in their system.
He is a frickin major head case.

You serious Clark?

Yep and we knew that first hand when he couldn't be any more than a GA at Iowa.

 

[Vroom_C14]

Need a really good special teams coach and he can recruit!

That's charity money. Bo wants to earn it not hide out at Youngstown State while his stock declines.

 

[UncleChesterton]

I know Bo is a hothead but he can recruit and he motivates players. If Barta were to simply explain that he couldn't be a total Ahole anymore and would have to become communicative- basically much less of a tool and more of a professional, I think he'd be interested in the opportunity to save a stagnating program and his own moribund career.

 

[TJHawkeye]

Pelini is a joke. No way we could put up with his antics.

 

[Herkmeister]

No way we ever hire Bo. (I HOPE!!!!!) What a dill weed.

Couldn't agree more. I really can't see any big ten team wanting him. He doesn't fit with any of the big ten teams that I can see. Jmo

He would fit well at Illinois.

 

[HawkinK.C.1]

The only classless team who is dumb enough to hire that reject would be Nebraska.

 

[Vroom_C14]

I see Zooker is the Packers ST coach - how the heck?

 

[GnarlyBoy]

Mouth-breather foul-language non-friendly with press terrible face for the program I could not get fully behind the Hawks with that guy at the helm. Yes this had to be trolling, but fun to vent on that guy. Other than some Bolievers, most of the Ne fans I know were embarrassed by him. Who wouldn't be?

 

[rfgiowa]

 

[MITCH492]

Bo to Iowa would be a great thing for Nebraska!
Who's idea was this anyway?

 

[spice10]

I'll take P.J Flack from Western Michigan if we can't get Bielma
