Its really been ******* me off lately when a coach bolts to another job and doesnt finish up the season in a bowl with his players. Its a dead recruiting time, and it'll eat up a whole week or 2 of his time to prepare for a bowl game. I think its speaks volumes for a guys character to do what Bo is doing.
In fairness to these coaches...most of them are "shown the door" as soon as they accept another position...it is not really their choice in many cases.
Again the LSU situation is unique...they are playing for the National Championship...not the GMAC bowl. My sense is that if they were playing in any other bowl that Pelini would be shoveling snow in Lincoln rather than reviewing game tapes of the OSU offense in Baton Rouge.
Re: Pelini will coach LSU in BCS Champ. Game
Yeah, but keep this in mind - considering the situation at Nebraska this may be the last time Bo gets to coach in a bowl game in a really long time. If I were him I'd try to take advantage of that as well...
