After the recently released comments of Bo Pelini, we may be able to gain a few thousand more fans from the great state of Nebraska. 

These Deadspin guys brining all the dirt.

It will be a sellout again, Nebraska games are like an all-day event.  Even if ppl don't like the product on the field they want to participate in everything else that happens on Game Day.  Plus from what I gather there isn't much else going on in Nebraska on a game day.

Depends on when the game starts. If it's too late, fans might want to leave early to get to the bars in time.

What are the chances that Frank bounces back to Lincoln? One has to think he's still somewhat bitter about the way things went down and he's completely changed his offensive philosophy, which was the main reason he was ousted in the first place. I can't imagine it would take very long for him to build a legit national title contender with the talent they have already in place.

I may be wrong, but IMO there is a 1% chance at most that Frank would be asked back. He has many backers, but there are even more who believe he started the Huskers down the path they find themselves on. By the way Frank is 69 or so. There is no way they or anyone else would hire a 69 year old in this day and age. Well maybe Kansas State would.

And I say this as a Nebraska alum, FWIW.

. But you cant deny that being 69 doesn't make a difference in carrying out the physical demands of being a college football coach. Well maybe you can. Anyway, there's only 1 coach older than Frank in FBS, so the odds are against that because of ageism or whatever.

I feel like he could have that itch though. You know? He's thinking, "I was at the top of this business, I could do it again if the situation was right." Or I could be completely wrong and he's comfortable in Athens, OH, almost living in retirement.

If we win the MACC this year, maybe.  Solich has placed a lot of emphasis on the unfinished business -- both last season and this -- and I get the impression he's not the kind of guy to leave a project he thinks is unfinished.

As for his age, yeah, ageism is alive in this century.  I'm almost 62 and I've seen it.  If Pelini were to leave, I think Neb would want somebody who could commit for a decade or longer.  A lot of people, rightly or wrongly, don't think that someone who's nearly 70 could make that kind of commitment -- even if he were to say he could. 

I like to think he enjoys what he's doing at Ohio enough to stay.  But IF he has the itch, or thinks he's done all he can here, and Neb makes the bucks worthwhile, who knows.  Maybe if we build a bigger airport.....

Thanks for the insights L.C.

That makes a lot of sense.

another near zero situation . Im guessing that Pelini could get a better HC job if he wanted to be a head coach again.

Let's put it another way. There are lots of things that we, as individuals could value. Here are a few, and I'm sure there are many others you could add to this list:
1. Being appreciated
2. Not being constantly second guessed
3. Being well paid
4. A feeling of accomplishment
5. Job security
6. Enjoying the community you live in

He's much more appreciated at Ohio. He's rarely second guessed at Ohio, but it was constant at Nebraska. He was better paid at Nebraska. I think he has more feeling of accomplishment building something than trying to maintain something. He has much more job security at Ohio. As for number 6, I have no idea. Thus, most of the factors other than money point to a preference for Ohio. I doubt money is his prime motivation at this stage of his life, so I'd think he's at Ohio for the rest of his career.

More than that, though - look at his assistants. Coaches like Dixon or Collins have been in much more prestigious positions than Ohio. Why do they stay at Ohio? I think it's the same reasons. They are respected here, and not attacked here, and they have great job security, and adequate pay to have a good standard of living. They could take some other position, but, with the coaching merry-go-round, they might be back out of a job in a couple years.

The bottom line is that some school's fans think they are great fans, but Ohio's fans really are great fans. Because they are, and they are rewarded with great stability in the coaching staff in a conference where there is rarely much coaching stability at all.

Speaking of Pelini, I found this video of a recent prank of his a bit odd.
