Pull yourself together folks...We all thought Bo was the answer. Guess what? He wasn't remotely the answer. Harvey made the tough decision that were necessary. He didn't 't coach. He didn't coach. What he did, was his job. His decision about Riley will pay off.

He was directly involved with firing two 9 win coaches and replacing them with jokes. I'm constantly hearing that Riley will be a success but nobody can come up with measurable proof to that point.

Too much focus on a few incidents instead of overall progress of the University -- academics and enrollment made significant gains. Excellent term.

He is a complete narcissist that has lead to the destruction of Husker football. Good Riddance.

HP was as heavily involved with Athletics as any University Chancellor I can readily remember. Unfortunately, his involvement has stymied the Athletic programs. Please let people with coaching experience run the Athletic office.

10 weeks before "Teflon Harvey" took over the Huskers played for a National Title. Last season NU had its WORST season in over half-a- century. Nothing EVER stuck to Perlman!

Perlman did one good thing....he got Nebraska into the Big Ten. Unfotunately, for him, he will be remembered most for his poor personality.

As perhaps the only member of "Russians for Nebraska" in Moscow (or anywhere in Russia for that matter), I do not like the way he treated Coach/AD Osborne at the end.

Because he always seemed rather aloof. Have not seen any great academic accomplishment from Nebraska since he has been there and did not seem a big supporter of agricultural program.

He made some bad hires and watched the department descend into the abyss. A very unlikeable man.

He should have been fired after extending Pedersen's contract. And hiring Pedersen was bad but hiring Eickhorst was worse. Trying to extend Eickhorst sneakily was horrible. He's an idiot

His poor decisions have set back husker sports years if not Decades counting the days until he is gone.

I will remember multiple contract buyouts, a contract extension for Steve Pederson months before he was fired, and overpaying our current AD to come in and find a reason to fire Bo.

The athletic department is still unstable and the academia has taken a step back. A new CBA is great, but you don't become a top school with a good CBA. Science/math/engineering is how you build a top school, and they have been ignored under Perlman's rule.

Because know the Huskers have a true chance to win now that Utah doesn't have they're coach.

Yes, especially when you combine the upheaval this causes with a few of their opt outs and departures. It's one of the reasons bowl games just aren't the same anymore. The record might say we're playing the 15th ranked team, but in reality, we're playing what's left of it. Glorified scrimmage gm!

I would say it gives Nebraska a BETTER chance for a bowl win… I wouldn’t go so far as to say that it gives Nebraska a GOOD chance for a bowl win. 🙄

The Utes could have Ernest P. Worrell coaching them and they'd still throttle us.

If our D can’t stop the run Barney Fife could be Utah’ coach and they will win.

His replacement has been around the program since he played there under Whittingham. The transition will be smooth.

I think the only altered mindset might be the Utes will be angry and looking to show Whittingham they are as good without him as they were under him
