Well, if Bill Callahan's not going to talk to the media, Tom Osborne sure will.
The man inside the scarlet blazer answered at least one important question for Cornhusker fans yesterday, saying he will not wait until after a bowl game--should there be one--to fire (I mean evaluate) the current coaching staff. That's good for all involved.
Even after last week's win, you still get the sense that Nebraska fans are just ready to turn the page on this whole BC era. The next season starts the day Bill walks out of the football offices carrying a cardboard box, and that day could be as few as 10 days away.
And then there's the recruits. The earlier you can get a coach in with a vested interest in reeling some kids in, the better off you are. Gabbert's joined Mizzou (verbally) this week and quickly became the worst QB many Nebraskans had (n)ever seen, but as quickly as Blaine's excitement for Nebraska ended with the firing of Bill's boss, the fervor could come back with a good hire.
So essentially what Tom said yesterday was, "we know what we're doing." I'll take it.

Before you said "BC era," it had never occurred to me, but:
BC = Bill Callahan
BC = Barry Collier
BC = Bad Coach
Shoulda been a clue, huh?
This may be a backhanded compliment, but that brilliant interpretation of the initials is actually the best argument put forth yet for removing Callahan in favor of this nostalgia trip.
