Bo-liever or Bo-leaver?

The Common Fans bring you Episode 3 of The Reckoning series. This episode, featuring long time Nebraska reporters Sam McKewon and Brandon Vogel, focuses on the question: Bo-liever or Bo-leaver?

The crew looks at:

• The hiring of Bo "restored the House of Osborne," according to Sam McKewon. 
• Pelini's fire was a welcome change from the more stoic Callahan, but it was evident from early on that his temper was fierce - and perhaps a detriment to the team. 
• Pelini's early success - two conference championship game appearances in his first three years - contrasted with the volatile and, at times, dysfunctional way he ran the team.
• Two massive turning points in the middle of Bo's tenure: Nebraska's move to the Big 10, and the unexpected blowout loss against Wisconsin in the 2012 Big 10 championship game. 
• The impact of Shawn Eichorst coming in as Athletic Director in 2012. 
• The infamous tape after the 2013 UCLA game. 
• The 2014 Wisconsin game that sealed his fate. 
• And much, much more.
