No surprise here. Fired by the greatest coach in Big Red history, who instilled that beatdown defense in Omaha.
ESPN ran a little graphic after the Nebraska highlight showing how in Callahan's 4 years in Nebraska his teams allowed eleven 40+ point games to opponents, while from 1973-2003 the Blackshirts gave up just 10.
He changed the Husker program into something that was opposite the tradition, now they need to find a coach that will bring the Blackshirt mentality back.

I hated the signing from the start but the Huskers will get back to the days of glory.
I now need to collect my money from a family because I said he would only hurt the program.
