OT: Brewster from 24/7 Claims Pelini is "In the Mix" for Wiscy
Brewester is a 247 writer for Michigan. (paid article)
This would be among the most epic trollings jobs ever if Pelini takes over Wiscy and punches Nebraksa in its various nether regions in the coming years. We might not play good football, but nobody would do soap opera like the Big 10 if this goes down and Harbaugh arrives here to play with Urban and Mork.
Please make it happen.

I've confirmed that Bo Pelini is indeed in the mix to take over at #Wisconsin. http://wisconsin.247sports.com/Article/The-latest-on-Wisconsins-head-coaching-search-33777371 … via @247Sports

man that still cracks me up every time. did he ever give a reason/explaination for it?
December 11th, 2014 at 9:36 PM ^
It was in response to this FauxPelini pic:

That photo never gets old!
Not /s
December 11th, 2014 at 5:11 PM ^
My interest in the Nebraska/Wisconsin game each year would increase significantly.
December 11th, 2014 at 5:12 PM ^
It'd be more Wisconsin taking advantage of the dumbasses at Nebraska. Fire Bo Pelini for Mike Riley. lmao.
December 11th, 2014 at 5:16 PM ^
Depends on what one thinks of Bo Pelini. If Bo goes to Wiscy and Wiscy turns into Nebraska and gets pounded to the tune of 40 pt losses to Nebraska than Nebraska's AD (a former Wisconsin guy) is a genius. :)
December 11th, 2014 at 5:20 PM ^
Think Bo Pelini is a world beater, but I'd certainly take him over a 61 year old who's best job in college was at Oregon State and who bombed in the NFL.
December 11th, 2014 at 5:13 PM ^
Sources. Told him this. It must be true.
December 11th, 2014 at 5:15 PM ^
That would be torture for Nebraska fans and entertainment for the rest of us!
December 11th, 2014 at 5:15 PM ^
And a great fit.
They ought to take a pass at Brady Hoke as well.
December 11th, 2014 at 5:16 PM ^
But I can't see Bo playing well with someone looking over his back.
December 11th, 2014 at 5:16 PM ^
Isn't just oil and water, or fire and gasoline. It's matter and anti-matter. Cat vs. dog.
December 11th, 2014 at 5:17 PM ^
That would be awesome....
December 11th, 2014 at 5:24 PM ^
December 11th, 2014 at 5:19 PM ^
Other than the hillarity of it all, it actually would be a great hire for wisco
December 11th, 2014 at 5:27 PM ^
Can't beat em join em
December 11th, 2014 at 5:27 PM ^
Please make this happen! The FauxPelini tweets would be priceless.
December 11th, 2014 at 5:30 PM ^
December 11th, 2014 at 5:43 PM ^
PLEASE HAPPEN
December 11th, 2014 at 5:45 PM ^
For the cycle alone!
Has there ever been a case where three D1 colleges have shuffled their football coaches like this?
A >>> B
B >>> C
C >>> A
December 11th, 2014 at 6:29 PM ^
This. It would be amazing if that happens.

If they really wanted to make Wisconsin-Nebraska a rivalry, nothing gets that off the ground like hiring the other team's former coach in a phenomenal troll move. Wisconsin should do this and then turn Nebraska into a fine paste on a yearly basis just for the troll value alone. Those would be the "let me get my bag of popcorn" games.
December 11th, 2014 at 6:09 PM ^

Stream of conciousness - check
Gigantic wall of text - check
Please make this a topic on the board. I love some good mgosnark.
December 11th, 2014 at 9:07 PM ^
December 11th, 2014 at 9:23 PM ^
seriously suggesting that Harbaugh might turn us down, sit out a year and take our job then? Because we made a "sub-par hire".
December 11th, 2014 at 11:28 PM ^
December 11th, 2014 at 6:09 PM ^
This would reverse the trend of Nebraska being a dead-end job once Tom Osborne retired. Nebraska should have never fired Frank Solich.
December 11th, 2014 at 6:31 PM ^
Barry Alvarez is an NU alum. Eichorst was Alvarez's right hand person at Wisconsin for 5 years. Alvarez got Eichorst the AD position at NU after the Miami (YTM) situation blew up. If the rumors are true in that Pelini was hated by Eichorst, I doubt Alvarez will take Pelini on.
Darrell Bevell will be the next Wisky coach, especially if the Seahawks make an early exit.
December 11th, 2014 at 8:16 PM ^
by "NU" do you mean Nebraska? I had to read and reread your post, since "NU" is the initials of Northwestern University, not Nebraska. Nebraska is usually shortened to "UNL" which stands for University of Nebraska-Lincoln, the official name of the Nebraska that is a member of the Big Ten.
December 11th, 2014 at 9:00 PM ^
Nebraska = NU.
We answer to UNL, too, but NU is the standard abbreviation. (Yes, we realize it 'should' be UN, but it's apparently a Big 8 thing. OU, KU, CU....)

Well, he did manage to work a lot of words in by saving all that unnecessary white space. If he had spaced it out, I would have had to go to my basement to finish reading it.

Nebraska trolls Wisconsin by getting rid of their rival's successful coach as a direct result of firing their own. Ball's now in Wisconsin's court...
December 11th, 2014 at 7:14 PM ^
I'm all for it. I actually like Pelini and his rage - plus his cat lulz. I think he'd fit in just fine with Wisconsin style of ball, and it would be pure heaven for him to get a chance at the Huskers every year.

Accoring to numerous "CC" sources, there are lots of others "In The Mix For Whiskey"
Like these:
Apologies, if this should have gone in the Thursday Night Drinking Thread
