Perlman OWH article

Any guesses who the "high profile NFL coach" was that almost replaced Solich, but backed out?

Perlmans pride

I don't trust Perlman and haven't for awhile.

I think Perlman is blowing smoke out his backside personally.

 

[Laces_Out_Dan]

Yeah. I think he is a very prideful man who admitted he made a mistake but wanted to save face by placing a little blame on this said coach.

I don't see what he has to gain by making up a story on his way out. I know many fans have a negative impression of Harvey, but I don't think it's all that founded on fact. When things go wrong, we keep pointing higher to find blame. I'm surprised we haven't blamed Obama yet for the football team's failures.

I remember reports that Dave Wannstedt and Butch Davis were contacted.

I don't think he is making it up. By why dig up the dead beaten horse if he wasn't going to give a name. Seems like a chicken **** move . That said, Harvey did one hell of a job with academics and helping us get into the big. He should have stayed out of the coaching hiring business though .

I wouldn't believe what that snake tells us walking out the door.

If pederson woulda pulled the plug in 02, maybe a lot different turnout. 7-7 was plenty of reason, but trying to replace a 10-3 coach made it too difficult decision for whomever it was.

 

[Coach Jon]

He's one of the biggest liars of all time. Anything to make hit rat *** look better!

I'm going to guess most of the posters in this thread have no connection to NU except for being fans of the football team. I have had no contact with HP in thirty years, but when I knew him he was a fine man and excellent dean of the college of law. I suppose he could have become the scumbag some of you think he is, but I doubt it.
