Who is going to be the 4th terrible hire in a row for Nebraska

The only guy that will take this job is a Nebraska guy or a coach who has had below average results elsewhere. Nebraska ( much like Florida ) is not a job you want if you are proven . Fan base wants results right now and even if you perform well it likely won't be good enough. No reason for an up and coming coach to take a job with very little upside.

Meanwhile. UCLA had already fired and hired a coach by the time Nebraska got involved in the search.

Funny, but you just could be wrong.

Nebraska might not have fired the current head coach, but I can assure you the coaching search was going on long before. Matter of fact, it just might have ended on November 6, 2017.

We heard the same thing when Solich was fired and Callahan was fired and Pelini was fired.

When Pelini was fired the fans said hire a certain coach from Oregon. Being a dumbass, Eichorst hired from the wrong school.

I’m not sure about the no upside. If you coach at Nebraska, we pay buyouts.

Figure to work for 3-5 years, and then get paid for another 4.

The only better gig right now is at Iowa. Ferentz has been getting paid since 1999 and is on contact for another 8 or 9 I think.
So in something like 27 years, he’ll only coach 5 or 6 good seasons but he got paid for all of them. That’s one hell of a gig.
