Carl Pelini is a pretty hot item right now with his success as a D-coordinator. Nebraska made a good move with a solid raise to keep him around.

Nebraska defensive coordinator Carl Pelini received an 80-percent pay raise in the wake of the Huskers’ strong showing on defense this season, two sources close to the program told the Journal Star on Wednesday.

The 44-year-old Pelini, who doubles as defensive line coach, will make in the vicinity of $375,000 in 2010, up from his salary of $208,360 in 2009. His raise became effective Jan. 1, a source said.



Here's a funny video showing the Pelini brothers have a good sense of humor too.

Good for him! BTW,He used to be the Head Coach at Austintown Fitch High School.

Another Mooney boy doing well in the college ranks!

Congrats Carl!

Well deserved!

I wish Bo P was still at LSU

The next place Bo P goes will be Ohio State. I don't see Carl sticking around Nebraska very long. A big college will come calling him for a head coaching job very soon.
