This week is all about ex-Oregon State and current Nebraska coach Mike Riley: Issues & Answers

There has been a lot written this week about Mike Riley, the former Corvallis High School quarterback and Oregon State coach now in charge of the football program at tradition-rich Nebraska.

The piece today by The O's Andrew Greif is the best I've read.

Greif captures a lot of what I feel about Riley, the winningest coach in OSU history.

My first contact with Riley came when he briefly was a candidate for Portland State's head coaching job after Pokey Allen left for Boise State in the early 90s.

Riley withdrew from consideration before things got serious.
