MU ESPN says Pinkel is a consideration for Washington job - Page 4

SCTrojan · 10-28-2008, 04:48 AM

Saw this on ESPN and thought I'd get the Mizzou fans' perspective on it. I know I hate it whenever journalists speculate that Pete Carroll will take whatever NFL job is open.

I pasted the part where they mention Pinkel below

Tyrone Willingham was nearly fired as Washington's coach following the 2007 season, so know that the folks in power -- both inside and outside the university -- have been cogitating about who the Huskies next coach will be for some time.

School president Mark Emmert loves his football. He was chancellor at LSU when he bypassed the authority of athletic director Joe Dean, fired coach Gerry DiNardo and lured a guy by the name of Nick Saban away from Michigan State.......

Two names would be sweet music to most Huskies fans: Missouri's Gary Pinkel and Seattle Seahawks assistant Jim Mora.

Both have ties to Washington and legendary coach Don James. And both would be expensive.

Some might wonder why Pinkel, a finalist for the job when Rick Neuheisel was hired after the 1998 season, would leave Missouri after building it into a national power, but more than a few connected folks believe Pinkel could be in play.

Of course, the Huskies will have to substantially beat the five-year contract extension that Pinkel signed last December that guarantees him $1.85 million annually.

Losers always talk about their program's past success, like anyone gives a flying ****.

Keep holding onto the past Gretz.

Dude, you are becoming a total clown.

It isn't our fault the state of Nebraska doesn't have talented enough football player's to sustain your program at the level your fans would like it to be at.

It isn't our fault you will have to convince kids BORN in the 90's how good Nebraska used to be.

Demonpenz · 10-28-2008, 10:56 AM

The kids being recruited would have been 2 or 3 when they could actually call themselves black shirts on D

It is easy to get attention on a message board when you flailing around like a little kid.

Maybe you can deal with NU rebuilding...can you deal with the fact that NU's ceiling for the ability to have success has been lowered?

reminds me of Raiders fans.

you can laugh at how much they suck, and they remind you that they won a title decades ago.

I don't mind where it was 5 years ago, because we've improved since then. We're not still languishing with a broken rudder and a blown engine like the Cornhumpers are.

O-Royals season is only a few months away at least.

For the clown rating for this thread, I give it

5/5

You're not in our heads any more than a crying baby on a long plane flight, or a dog barking all night long. You're a screeching, incoherent fool who isn't respected or valued by anybody on this board, including other Husker fans, who look upon you as an embarrassment.

If that's the look you were going for, congratulations.

That's your opinion and probably the opinion (hope) of Mizzou fans.

I was responding to someone's criticism of Nebraska's win against Baylor. The margin of victory and the pre-game point spread were similar. I guess Robert Griffin turns into a bad quarterback when they play Nebraska.

You can't have it both ways.

I'm sure Mizzou fans are perfect saints

This boils down to a natural difference of opinion.

beavis · 10-28-2008, 11:10 AM

Really not concerned about this at all. I don't think there's anyway Pinkel leaves after spending the time he has turning this program around. Just wouldn't make any sense. he'd be 60+ before he got Washington back to .500.

I'm more concerned about Christiensen leaving.

You, sir, are a sane Mizzou fan.
