Nebraska to hire Turner Gill?

[vbird53]

I was listening to an interview with Gary Barnett (former CU head coach) and he sort of let the cat out of the bag that he has been led to believe that Turner Gill will be the next coach at Nebraska.

He tried to correct himself after he said it by saying it was "just a hunch" but it was apparent that he knows more about the situation than he tried to cover up.

Take it for what it's worth.

he has done some nice things to buffalo in the 2 years he has been there

I`m waiting for Osborne to fire himself.

Osborne needs to hire Gill and be a co-head coach with him. Then in about 3 or 4 years, Osborne would step down.

I just heard from a former Husker player (played mid-90's w/ 2 NC rings) it's likely to be BP.

This NU coaching thing is confusing the hell out of me, i hear people say its Pelini and then i hear people say its Gill. I wish they would just hurry it up and just decide already

[CharlieHog]

well ESPN is saying it's Pelini

[RHshoxfan]

ESPN & SI is saying its Pelini

Dang, I hope Osborne is making the right hire here...

well ESPN is saying it's Pelini

Yup, the ticker at the bottom of the VT/BC game says Pelini, but Osborne is refusing to comment.

[rrshock]

Pelini is it officially. At least I think so.

[RHshoxfan]

Yea, its official.

What in the world was Barnett talking about? He basically told everyone who was listening that Gill was going to take the job.

What a screw-up!!!
