Frank Solich was the head coach at Nebraska in 2001 when they took on the talented Miami Hurricanes. The guy can build a championship team

quote:

In 2009, Solich led the Bobcats to a 9–5 overall mark with another MAC East Championship appearance and an appearance in the Little Caesars Pizza Bowl. That 2009 senior class amassed more wins (28) than another other Ohio football class in more than 40 years. In 2011, Solich coached the Bobcats to a 10-4 record, another MAC East Division title, and their first ever bowl win. The Bobcats defeated the Utah State University Aggies 24-23 in the Famous Idaho Potato Bowl. It was Ohio's first ten win season since 1968.[2]

Because SEC schools don't hire people who got fired from Nebraska.

He got a DUI in Athens, which is really hard to do. Everyone walks everywhere. I think they found him facing the wrong direction on court st passed out.

I think psu should have hired him. He has big program experience, and he old enough that in a few years when the storm passes he will retire and they can go out and get their guy. Although Obrien seems like a good hire.

Nebraska would have loved to have him back after subjecting themselves to the Callahan days.

That's the last 5 years and in the MAC at that.

That same squad got beat by Colorado 62-36.

I think you may be confused about the status of the SEC.

If you are mediocre in the MAC as a head coach you think that will translate into being great in the SEC?

Not sure if this serious, Solich is Nebraska's version of Shula or Debose. He was a homegrown promotion who inherited a dynasty.

Although the MAC produced Al Golden, Brady Hoke, Urban Meyer & Nick Saban, every one of them coached there as a young man


ETA Solich was unable to keep the Compton pipeline open Nebraska's fall from grace came as Pete Carroll took over a down USC and began keep the skill postions Nebraska recruited from the west coast ( Cornhuskers also recruited the very far east too under Osbourne)

Do you really think the MAC is better than the SEC? You do realize that is the "greater than" sign...don't you?

SEC123....sorry. The OP was so weak that I automatically associated it with people who have trouble passing 2nd grade math. I'll turn the sarcasm function back on.
