As a Big XII fan/observer, it is clear to me that Pelini > Callahan. Even that, practically anyone would have been an improvement over Callahan either way. That was one of the biggest bunders in Nebraska history was to hire Callahan over Pelini. Pederson, the person who was responsible for the hiring, is no longer with the university, along with Callahan.
Now, the question do remain though. Is he going to be a very good coach? Or is is one of those great assistants, but just can't cut it as a head coach? Only time will tell.
