Social Speaks: Bo Pelini

What do you think of the audio tape recently released with Bo Pelini saying some inappropriate things about the Husker fans two years ago? Should he be punished, fired, or do you think his apology is acceptable?

  Melissa Thomas Hawk I think everyone has a “moment” that they are not proud of and we should all remember that, his just happened to be recorded and saved for future use apparently. Also, Bo’s “vein busting” way is no surprise to anyone, maybe just the words this time…….

  Kathy Peterson For me it is just another nail in his coffin as I have long NOT been a fan of Bo and this type of behaviour is the main reason why….I would like to see a coach on staff who has respect for the players, the game and the fans…..and who the word sportsmanship means something ALL the time….not just when it can impact a good feeling for him….I will probably catch some flak for this…but that is allright because it is how I feel

  Leann Canarsky Jorgensen Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. While I am not a huge Bo fan either, I do believe that he is a human being & makes mistakes just like all of us do. I can’t honestly say that I have never said something that I didn’t really mean. He said something he shouldn’t have said in public, but that was just it, he was “venting” in the privacy of a room. I think it’s horrible that someone recorded that without his knowledge & used it against him. I do believe he can be a hothead, but his team seems to also respect him & like him. Haven’t you ever had a day when you just thought your top would blow if you didn’t let some of it out? I know I have!  I love my Huskers, win or lose, but there are definitely those that walk away when the going gets tough! I think if anyone should be embarrassed , it’s Tommie Frazier!

  Kathy Peterson I have Leeann…but he does it more out of ordinary habit than a once n a while blurp…there have been numerous occasions where this type of thing has happened but this is by far and away the worst…and in the press box…he should have been very aware of the possibility that it was being recorded…at any rate it is done….maybe not over with….I love the Huskers….what I don’t love is the language and the attitude of the man behind them right now….and I have not for a long time….when the University Board had to get involved some time ago to get him to tone down…..it was because they saw this very type of behaviour and the potential damage it could do…it is the worst kind of pr possible for Nebraska…..and the school has had more than it’s share of it in the last few years….

  Leann Canarsky Jorgensen I am beginning to think that they are never going to find a coach that made everyone as happy as Devaney & Osborne did! I’m not saying that they shouldn’t do something about him, as I said, I’m not a fan of him either. I’m just saying that until the Huskers are winning every game, there are a lot of people that aren’t happy, no matter what!

  Kathy Peterson You are right there..and there are many who will not follow them when they are losing…….and we all like to see the Huskers win…for me the wins are not so much the important thing…although it is nice…it is how they play and how they act win or…See More

  Kathy Peterson I just want my 
  Cornhuskers back! And to have the Gentlemans Team and coaching back……it will never be the way it was….but it could be so much better than it is….
