Eichorst Fired

[nudan92]

A buddy texted me earlier, his son works in the athletic dept. Just heard it on the radio. It's true.

 

[rrthusker]

Yep Ronnie and Hank are my heroes.

 

[BHeinDaHuskers]

Thank GOD !!!

 

[WHCSC]

Wow! Big boy program move.
Who's Oregon State's AD?

 

[tpmcg_rivals137159]

wow. and i mean wow!

 

[GretnaShawn]

Holy smokes. Did it see that coming.

 

[BHeinDaHuskers]

had to be done so we can hire an AD and he can hire a coach in time for the early signing period.

 

[rrthusker]

Holy smokes. Did it see that coming.

I did but not until late October. This
Means Hank and Ronnie are serious.

 

[BleedHuskerRed]

Larry the Cable Guy is one powerful dude!

[o_h3]

 

[Archie Graham]

WOAH

 

[MikeRileyGBR]

Booyah.

 

[BHeinDaHuskers]

I was on the record on this site early this week that I didnt expect him to survive September.

 

[Iguana775]

wow...that's a shocker.

So, does Riley survive also?

 

[Headcard]

WOW! Not messing around.

 

[mwulf]

next few months are going to be very interesting and may shape the direction of the program for the next 25 years

 

[NeverTellMeTheOdds]

Wow. Who's next?

 

[Shermski77]

HCMR has to feel great right about now.

 

[RealHusker]

....
Who's Oregon State's AD?

This part made me laugh...

 

[anon_umk0ifu6vj6zi]

Thank God he at least did that!

 

[mwulf]

wow...that's a shocker.

So, does Riley survive also?

personally I hope he does ..at least until next year .... we are in on some serious talent

 

[Arbitr8_rivals150424]

Barry A is going to be very upset.

 

[jay-cheese]

WOW! This day just got more interesting...

It's a big move, but seemingly the right one. Beyond the standard fan reaction of wanting to see heads roll when their beloved team is unsuccessful, the numbers also indicate a lack of success.

When you look at marquee sports, you've got football currently ranked 12th or 13th in conference. Men's basketball hovering around 12-14, women's basketball hit rock bottom after firing the coach. Baseball had a decent year winning the conference tourney, but going out without a fight in the tournament. If not for women's volleyball (a sport that was well-established well before Eichorst was around), there is very little quantitatively that can suggest he's done much. And this is with a program that is well-funded and supported with many resources.

 

[jay-cheese]

Nail in coffin was throwing the players under the bus post game. Very poor decision on his part...

GBR

 

[BHeinDaHuskers]

Energy BUS'T!

 

[Foosball is the devil]

Pressure's on

 

[kerpal_68]

This gives Riley all of this year and unless we only win 3 games, next year too. He gets to prove to the new AD.

 

[Harry Caray]

HCMR has to feel great right about now.

Timmy Miles also

 

[CatColumbia]

Agreed

This gives Riley all of this year and unless we only win 3 games, next year too. He gets to prove to the new AD.

Riley will get this year and the only way he gets next year is if we go to a conference championship. Less than that, no chance.

 

[jflores]

Go get us a good one!

 

[SnohomishRed]

And down goes Harvey Perlman this is a chance to rebuild

 

[dinglefritz]

I did but not until late October. This

I' shocked this happened now. Wow. Riley needs to start winning games and quickly. Personally I'm a little disappointed. I know the money Regents who were pissed about Bo's firing are still there so I shouldn't be surprised but I don't think firing SE fixes anything. Unfortunately for SE Bounds is a complete outsider so I have no doubt but that he was easily influenced. The turmoil continues.

 

[Morgan747]

Oh happy day!

 

[RedMyMind]

WOW! Not messing around.

bye bye recruiting class

 

[Foosball is the devil]

spare no expense. must be right this time

 

[Arbitr8_rivals150424]

This just looks worse to the outside world not a good sign, looks like the whole athletic department is a dumpster fire.

 

[dinglefritz]

And down goes Harvey Perlman this is a chance to rebuild

Just wait. It will be some re-tread hire with ties to Tom who isn't qualified to hold the position but will do whatever the Hawks want. Please dear God don't bring Tom back again.

Not so sure about that, I guess we will see.
