Nebraska's in it up to its neck.
Silly season is when coaches are getting fired and hired all over the nation. There's eventually so much movement, you can barely keep up. It is kind of silly.
But there's nothing amusing for the Nebraska coaches who likely will be shown the door within 24 hours of Friday's 3 p.m. game against Iowa at Memorial Stadium. I'm told that official word will come down Saturday morning or early afternoon.
We've seen this side of the business often at Nebraska in recent years. First, Frank Solich (2003), then Bill Callahan (2007), then Bo Pelini (2014) and now Mike Riley.
