I still love you, Faux! Thank you for talking about what didn’t seem to get enough coverage, & that’s the fact that if Jimbo were to get a check every day (which he won’t) that would be over $26,000 per day. Over $26,000 PER DAY FOR 8 YEARS. To NOT WORK AT A PLACE ANYMORE. I mean, Jimbo is not an Aztec emperor or ancient Egyptian pharaoh (or any other type of god-king, last time I checked). He’s a football coach. So what are we DOING HERE? Is this a sign of the coming apocalypse?
Are you kidding me? I’m a Nebraskan, by birth and degree. I just retired from UGA after 22 years as a faculty member. I also have a PhD from Ohio State. Kirby is the real deal - he’s who we all thought Scott was going to be. Kirby will never slide into mediocrity. He’s an alum.
I’ve been following you from the beginning - you are funny, insightful, smart and a great writer. I share Mo Faux with lots of people - everyone agrees you’re great.
This weekend sucks. I hate Michigan. I hate Alabama. I hate that FSU isn’t in. I hate that Georgia lost but I can deal with that - I’m a Nebraskan. I remember where I was sitting in the stadium when Mizzou beat us in ‘78 and we had to play Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl. It was a long drive back to Omaha in that 15 passenger van. All this to say - I can deal with Georgia being out although it feels very unfair. I count on you to be one of the good guys, a voice of reason. Stay away from Kirby - he’s Tom Osborne level good with a goofy haircut and a propensity to say, “How ‘bout them fuckin’ Dawgs?!?” When he’s excited.
Mel Tucker was well on the way...until he forgot to complete the 2nd step before he started having his fun

It’s a great (non) job if you can get it!

I like Kirby! He seems like one of the good ones. I’m just highlighting a financial opportunity for him. I hate seeing people work hard for free!
Thanks for reading. This weekend was hard but we’ll get through it.
Actually that sounds really nice, I hope Matt Rhule does that to Nebraska some day
We’ve had a few mini Jimbo situations at Nebraska. We need a break.
Unfortunately we seem to be skipping straight to step two.
