  1. And yet the current players were upset and taken off guard by the firing. That doesn't happen when the whole team more or less goes to the AD to complain. Sam's got some details he's not sharing here and working on a story. http://www.omaha.com/huskers/players-distraught-following-connie-yori-s-resignation-as-nebraska-women/article_762b62d2-f12a-5756-a01c-c20586d53cc4.html
  2. Lets see. You give a statement in a department culture review that isn't favorable of the culture currently in place. That gets leaked out early. All of the sudden your boss has someone attend every single thing you do meeting and practice wise looking for anything to find just cause. He finds what he needs, says he's terminating, she states she'll counter sue they work out a deal where she gets most of her remaining contract. Coach is now being defended by a very solid former player and former coaches at NU. Her, Miles and Bo were very close knit from those who know them. Miles is up next.
  3. He was projected in rounds 3 to 5 with a chance to move up until this staff got ahold of him. Most of the struggles were caused by the leave your corners and safeties on an island approach that most college football teams abandoned 10 years ago.
  4. So they turn it down?He was probably just throwing sh#t at the wall hoping it would stick anyway. UCLA has to go through their board of regents to approve contracts so it slowed the process down to get the ok to give him the raise to keep him at UCLA.
  5. And that came from someone affiliated with 1620
  6. Just say it. I hate when people tease like they know. If you know just say it. Im not your f'ing girlfriend. Or your boyfriend. Not that theres anything wrong with that. I was told it had been offered on Friday and unless the current team of the coach comes back to match the offer he'll be at Nebraska. It's from a booster out of Geogia and he said it was Angus. He wasn't very impressed. His comment was decent recruiter but below average coach.
  7. Unless the person turns down the job we should hear something in the next 48 hrs.
  8. Angus McClure is who I thought Sharpe mentioned quickly on air this morning. Would be a great hire IMO if true. EDIT - will need to go back through the podcasts, 2nd or 3rd segment to be sure but that is who I thought I heard him say. Interesting! I don't remember this guy at all but he's got a few ties to Nebraska apparently. Was an assistant for Callahan for two years, and was also the offensive line coach and run game coordinator for Turner Gill at Buffalo. Here's some more of his bio from UCLA's site: Seems like a fantastic hire if true, but are we putting all of our eggs into the California basket? Not a bad basket to be in. Having said that, this coaching staff showed plenty of ability to adapt to recruiting in the 500 mile radius, an area they hadn't had much experience in before.... They pretty much whiffed on everyone in that 500 mile radius they went after. The ones that signed were recruited hard or committed to Bo's staff. The high school relations guy sucked, was an arrogant A hole and told the coaches at the coaching clinic he didn't intend to recruit Nebraska much. He was so bad and screwed up so much they announced today he was reassigned. Going forward Kenny Wilhite has that role and he will excel at it. That's just not accurate. Farniok- Was far from locked up by Pelini. That was most definitely a recruiting win in the radius for 2016. ' Bryant- Wasn't even offered by the Pelini staff Wilson- Wasn't offered by Pelini. Stoll- No Pelini offer. Domann- All Riley & staff there. As for the lineman who were already committed (Raridon, Brokop). You act as if it's easy to keep kids committed in the middle of a coaching change. Did Pelini have them on the radar? Sure. Still a nice job by this coaching staff to keep them interested, and committed. Missing on a couple key prospects late, is for from "whiffing on everyone" in the area, and those two kids from Kansas are probably going to Clemson whether it was Pelini or Riley in charge..... Both Fant and Bubak were coming to NU until this staff messed it up. You seemed to miss out on them in your mentions. So no biggie we let the best two kids leave because we wouldn't call them back.

  10. Fun Fact: Northern Michigan is where Tom Izzo went to college and played basketball I'm not a fan of Jason Peter but I do like John Parrella. And its hard to start a program at any level and have success and he did that for a new high school program.
  11. Apparently you missed the entire first page. I saw mention of the GA not the wage. I was just adding that fact. But thanks for being a dick about it. There is also another person on the payroll that has talked to the coaches but isn't currently on staff. So take it for what its worth.
  12. We had almost a complete lack of DL guys interested in us this year. The only official visits we got were the two guys who signed. One live a half an hour from Memorial Stadium and the other had been begging for an offer for over a year. There were hardly even any guys who seemed interested. Now, some of that may have been because the staff had decided not to recruit a DT this year. Not sure if that was Hughes' call or someone else. But it was still basically non-existent. There is zero chance we decided not to recruit the DT this year. We will probably need 2 or 3 JC folks next year to fill gaps on the DLine to make up for misses this year.
  13. Lets also not forget that we're going to pay this guy like $300,000 to not coach next year (unless it was for cause) so I doubt we go pick up someone high end. It will probably be a GA or someone we already paying.
  14. If that's the case we should be looking for a new special teams coach.
  15. Give us a name(s) who would fit that description. Of coarse i have no Idea if they can coach.. But Winstrom, Peters, to name a few. Who could sell playing D-Line and being a blackShirts better then them? Please be joking. Why? I hope it is JP just so everyone can see how full of crap and clueless the guy really is.
