5:45 p.m.: Nebraska football coach Bo Pelini played for Ohio State and was a graduate assistant at Iowa in the Big Ten. He has coached with both Nebraska and Oklahoma in the Big 12.
So what's his take on potential conference realignment, which has included talk of NU and the Big Ten having at least some mutual interest in each other?
I asked Monday when Pelini was available for a few minutes before the Bo Pelini Foundation Celebrity Golf Tournament at Wilderness Ridge in Lincoln.
“I'm not real concerned with any of that,” Pelini said. “We'll see how it goes. I really have no idea where it is, where it's going. All I'm concerned with is the here and now.”
Asked if he had an opinion on what might be in the Huskers' best interest, Pelini said that remains to be seen.
“But I know coach (Tom) Osborne and Chancellor (Harvey) Perlman and the rest of the administration will make the decision that's best for Nebraska,” he said. “I think there are a lot of unknowns right now. I think there's a lot of speculation, but I don't think a lot of people really know what's going on.”
