I know him the best, and he left an impressive record on and off the field over a long period which included a variety adversities. Perhaps at a later date I would answer "Scott Frost."

I confess I wasn't thrilled in the first few years after he took over from the Bobfather, but he continued to improve and demonstrated that he could both build character and win the big game.

This isnt even a question, not taking anything from Bob, but Tom was calling plays when he won his 2 championships . And the 25 years of head coaching with at min of 9 wins is something that just don

No comparison-with what he has done not only on the field but for the whole state of Nebraska-and done it all with integrity and class.

Why isn't Riley a stand alone option.... That is hard to say with a straight face. Also, Osborne over Devaney because I didn't exist when Devaney coached.

Devany got it started but Tom persevered and keep it going for 25 years. Built it and maintained it in a changing game environment and style.

Devany Is the one who turned a pathetic football program into a champion chip program. Osborne inherited a championship football program.

There would not be a coach Osborne at Nebraska if not for Bob Devaney. He had the foresight to take over as Athletic Director and make sure Tom Osborne had a chance to grow into the coach he became.

Devaney took a losing program and left it in the hands of an excellent head coach. Enough sais.

Bob started it all, hired Tom and got it all rolling.

Bob Devaney started and Tom Osborne continued Bob's legacy. Tom learned from Bob, not vice versa.

NU needs a freshman to have a big time impact. Hopefully this is the one.

I've given up any hope of anyone being an impact player until they prove they can actually perform. Too many "BUSTS", including the team, overall.

Having watched him several times now, he needs to develop physically, and even more importantly, must focus on the mental game. He has too many lapses at the high school level. That will be magnified in the B1G

The only recent freshman I thought would be an impact player was Raiola. Barney was a pleasant surprise.

Why not... at least we can hope during the off-season. We are Nebraskans after all.

Next season would be the season to do it. Pretty good set up schedule wise and we SHOULD have the talent to make it happen.

Yes. In fact, NU will win 11 games next year. But 3 of the wins will be moral victories. Final record: 8 wins, 3 moral victories, 2 losses.

We replaced 3 coordinators and basically lost our d-line. I haven’t seen any evidence that our o-line will be good next year. We also lost most of our running back room. We’re probably not going to be much better next year than this year.

If Coach Ruhl had made more changes after year 1 (OC, special teams) I would be more optimistic for year 3. But after three games, extra practices, and a bowl game (barely) this year, I haven't seen much to make me think things will be that much better next year.
