Funny thing, ex-video Coach Leatherboots' take is the same one I'd heard whispered from multiple sources back when he first transferred from Stanford--and again the following season after he crapped-the-bed at Sun Devil Stadium.
But guess what? I thought he'd grown up when the next season rolled around and he led the Huskers on that amazing last-minute drive against Mizzou to tie, then beat them in OT.
His stature grew higher in my eyes when he made his televised plea to coaches during his interview after our big Orange Bowl thrashing of Tennessee and again, when he wrote his impassioned opinion piece about getting Nebraska back to being Nebraska in the Oughts. I was "all-in" by the time he became an OC at high-flying Oregon and the HC at UCF and thrilled beyond measure when Nebraska hired him after Riley's dismal tenure.
Now?
I'm with 99. The guy's a whiny, petulant, 40+ year old crybaby.
