I think he's on the right track-Give him some time and he will turn this program around!

He has assembled a great coaching staff, and the recruiting momentum is building.

He is doing everything that he needs to do to win. Bringing in Bob Diaco was a great move, one that shows he wants to win at Nebraska. Riely knows football and he knows people, he is a great hire.

He came into the program with disgruntled players and position holes everywhere. Attitudes have changed and recruiting is has improved dramatically. He also made necessary coaching changes.

We have been down for a while now. Since Osborne left, other than Solich's first few seasons, it just hasn't worked out with any of the other coaches. I think Riley can do it though and certainly hope that he does! I think before it's all said & done, we'll be hoping he doesn't leave or retire.

Give me more options! Riley will beat teams he's not supposed to and lose to teams he shouldn't! He shouldn't... but he will!

It will take a season for the defense to gel and the offensive staff needs coaching adjustments similar to the defense. The defense actually out ranked the offense nationally last season. Riley has several more friends to fire before Nebraska can win their division let alone their conference.

Like the guy, but he has made some amateurish play calls. "you can't fix stupid"

I hate to be this negative but I think we'll be lucky to make a bowl game 😔 Between not being able to beat a ranked opponent, the coaching carousel, no proven QB or RB and just sucking the last 25 years I'm starting to lose hope and lose faith in this staff. GBR 😭

I'm hopeful, but six wins seems most likely until the the team proves itself with a new QB and rebuilt lines.

Not possible. Lost our best player to the NFL draft. New OL coach and DC. Major rebuild. Scary to think this is year 4 and NU is talking about a major rebuild. Rhule sells the Kool Aid hard in the off season. GBR!!!

QB turnover machine. No D tackles. No RBs. Good Luck. 6-6 is the absolute ceiling. 5-7 is what it will be.

He seems more than just a mobile QB, he plays with abandon and spunk. Why wasn't he here right out of high school? But how could we have lost Ekeler? Have we turned into the dumbest program in America?

Of course, it should since we had a statue QB, once Lateef was in the offense changed to suit his skill set, and so it follows that Dana will tweak the offense to suit Colandea's skill set and with a new o-line coach changes come.
