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

Boss Moss

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

Gene Baker

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.

Ken Friend

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.

Wade Williams

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.

He's 15-11 in two seasons and doesn't give me much hope. Photo credit: Journal Star

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!

Dave Levesque

I don't have time to list the reasons.

Isaiah Skrdla

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.

Dwain Van Houten

Not until he gets an elite o.c.

Aaron Weeks

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

Nebraska was always most stable when we had a feature back that can actually "carry" the team with his legs.

Ron Joseph

Nebraska in the past was successful with one top back. We've fallen on hard times because we haven't developed or recruited a great back. But the others need to be developed so we have a pipeline of backs like we use to have.

Every good team, including the NFL, will rotate backs on a regular basis. This last year Nebraska should have used a 2nd running back more often - NEB is lucked out EJ stayed healthy.
