I'd be ok with him as an OC, at least he understands they style of offense that we try to run with a guy, let's call him Tim, that doesn't

Not good enough for Nebraska, Only an experienced, proven, championship winning coach is acceptable. We are Nebraska, dammit.

Mark Hudspeth
In three years with the Ragin’ Cajuns, Hudspeth is 27-12 overall and 17-6 in Sun Belt play. UL Lafayette claimed a share of the Sun Belt title in 2013, and the program has three consecutive bowl victories. Prior to his stint with the Ragin’ Cajuns, Hudspeth went 66-21 in seven years with North Alabama. He also has stops in his career at Mississippi State (2009-10), Delta State and Navy. If a SEC job opens this offseason, keep an eye on Hudspeth as a potential replacement.
Guy we could hire away, and he has good ties in Texas for recruits.

I still like this guy.

Finally, we agree.

I am fast jumping off the Frost train.

He may be the next big thing. I just don't know if I'd break him in at Nebraska.

If we're going to fire and hire someone, let's make it really fuckin count this time. No going all in on a gut feeling.

in a perfect world bo could be successful if he just changed his staff and get some experience coaches. ...

Technically speaking, all of his staff ARE experienced coaches now.

I'm really interested to see how oregon replaces Maryowetuh, fancy Frostypants or not, if they continue playing like they've been then there's some credit due

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Oregon just finds a way to reload.

Uncle Phil. Kids aren't going there for the football or the education. They are going for the Nike gear.

If in fact, Frost would have played a part in recruiting and evaluating talent to fit the system, to what extent he does or doesn't now idk

maybe Bo style isn't suited for the big ten

I'm starting to think maybe Bo was better in the pass happy big12. you look at the blowouts they all happened in the big ten from 2011 till now.

just something to ponder

I think Wisconsin might beg to differ on experience part lol

Just goes to show, it ain't always about experience. Some new young guy may be better suited than someone with a few years under their belts. Experience has to come from somewhere.

Well, if you teach me how to poop my pants for 5 years, all that means is I know how to poop my pants.

So, experienced? Yea, they're experienced alright. But some experiences are different than others. I wouldn't call our staff experienced in the way that we need them.

Probably true. it would have been nice to have them cut their teeth on someone else's dime.

i think Bo's mistake is in the offense. a spread offense just isn't conducive to keeping the score low. our offense should look like Minn/iowa/Wiscys. It should be focused on staying on the field for a long time so Bo can have time to make adjustments on the sideline for the defense. This 3 and out crap with virtually 0 time off the clock just isn't the way to play in the Big 10. the spread works when you have a QB like Mariota or Barrett or Miller unfortunately NU just isn't blessed with one of them, unless of course that's Stanton and we'll never know because Beck and Bo don't know how to give someone else playing time.

 

[Tomhusker]

I would tend to agree with you on that. I see no need to hurry up if you aren't moving the ball anyway. Hell, call a huddle and really throw the defense off.
I was a fan of the spread offense when it was implemented back in the Big XII. Now I think a return to the power run, incorporating the fullback and TE's into the offense more, should be considered. More teams are building defenses to deal with the spread offense. As we saw last week, a good power running team can handle those spread defenses fairly easily.
Of course, at this time NU does not have a TE that would flourish in a power run offense. And a quality fullback is as rare as a unicorn these days.

I pretty much concur here.

We try to go up-tempo on Offense but when we can't sustain drives it screws us over.
