Much to the dismay of the Nebraska football players, head coach Bo Pelini was fired after the regular season concluded. Despite him winning the the Huskers, athletic director Shawn Eichorst decided that it was time for a change, and because of that, a lot of anger has been cast in his direction.
Now Pelini was afforded the time to say goodbye to his players, which he took full advantage of. What he also took full advantage of in that meeting was the chance to express to his former players just what he thought of Eichorst.
Of course, with this being Bo Pelini, he didn’t let the opportunity go to waste.
Omaha.com got the audio from that meeting, and as you’d expect, Pelini went on quite the expletive filled rant to his players about Eichorst.
"“A guy like (Eichorst) who has no integrity, he doesn’t even understand what a core value is,” Pelini told players. “And he hasn’t understood it from the day he got here. I saw it when I first met with the guy."
"“To have core values means you have to be about something, you have to represent something, you have to have something that is important to you. He is a f—— lawyer who makes policies. That’s all he’s done since he’s been here is hire people and make policies to cover his own ass.”"
That was pretty good, but this was maybe a little bit better.
"“I didn’t really have any relationship with the A.D.,” Pelini said. “The guy, you guys saw him (Sunday), the guy is a total p—-. I mean, he is, and he’s a total c—.”"
