be nice..i even favorited your tweet

 

[corn train]

No one here really believes Tressel would even be asked about the position, just fun mess around with the idea

I still believe the only people we're looking at have strong ties to the program and it's a pretty short list, we can all name them on 1 hand

Rumor has it Tommie said both Frazier and Frost were in L-town this weekend

Ron Kellogg tweeted the Tressel sighting

Kellogg is a practical joker, remember that

i don't have a problem with Mullen at all, previously, I just didn't even see him as an option, but after reading that, I actually think that would be worth a shot.

Didn't Mullen have an offer from Florida for 4 million and turned them down? Or was that Freeze?

Mullen is the one with Florida ties

Tressel has been on campus more than once, toured our facilities, had nothing to do with being interested about becoming HC here. If it came from Ronnie Kelloggs yeah you can bet he's laughing his ass off right now at the folks on HM raving about it

Ya that's what I originally thought

I was in the majority by thinking we need to bring in an experienced head coach but, I'm not so sure any more. What do (most) head coaches really do during the game? The OC and DC's call the plays and the position coaches do most of the in-game adjustments.

Maybe bringing in a smart coordinator who can recruit, teach, and has a great work ethic might be better than you think if he can bring along the very best coordinators that we can get.

I'm kind of thinking that Scott Frost will be coming back to Nebraska. I believe he was chosen a while ago and he wanted the best S&C program he can get and that is why Boyd Epley was brought back in. If he can land someone like Will Muschamp for the DC position and Philip Montgomery as OC, This would be a major step up from what we had the past 7 seasons.

A guy can dream can't he?

Hey guise, I was just told by someone who is a friend's of a friend's brother's cousin who said he has inside knowledge of everything. Apparently, Tom Osborne is coming out of retirement to coach the almighty Huskers!

Huskerz fer champz!

 

[tometom]

but do you really trust Frost to find the best DC and OC? I just don't know if he has enough experience and has been around enough to get the right guy in. I mean how many experienced DCs and OCs want to come in and work for the young hotshot HC?

That's why i'd rather see a more experienced guy that has some contacts and some experience to find a good DC and OC. not to mention good experienced assistants. Look at the experience level Meyer was able to hire, can Frost get those kind of assistants?

also decision making, I want someone that has been in tough situations and made decisions, even if wrong decisions, at least he learned from those.

i really think the key in this search is finding someone that has coached at the FCS or non-power 5 level and gotten more out of lower star players. Bohl, Hudspeth, McElwain fit that to the best. I think even Mullen fits into that as his current players aren't any better than the ones we have. so if these guys can coach our 3 and 4 stars up a little, we will get where we want to be.

Bo wasn't able to do that, he was used to working with kids that were already 5 and 4 star and didn't need to coach them up. Similar reason I don't want Richt, that guy hasn't never coached at a low level, thus he won't be able to do any better than Bo.

 

[HuskerPower52]

There are a lot of lower level schools with long win streaks. Or coaches doing more with less. I think this is Nebraska's opportunity to get on OSU's level and that of the SEC. I am hoping its Tressel and frost with a big name DC. I am of the fence about Muschamp but he would be able to learn from Tressel and frost as well as study the big ten. That would give him experience in 3 of the big 5.

I'm with you on getting someone who's got experience at the non-power 5 level.

No particular order....

Jim McElwain - Colorado St
Mark Hudspeth - ULL
Willie Fritz - Georgia Southern
Doc Holliday - Marshall
Justin Fuente- Memphis (Too soon?)
P.J Fleck - Western Michigan (Too soon?)

Top of my wish list is Gary Patterson (TCU) though.

Schick is going to do the halftime of the Nebrasketball @ FSU game.

Says he's gonna talk to Kelly about Frost and Nebraska.

 

[HuskerPower52]
