You are Bo and just found out you are staying. At least for another year. What changes would you implement if any.
1) I would review the previous 6 years and decide what phases of the game have really improved. Look at the staff and see if they have reached their ceiling. Evaluate who stays and goes.
2) IMO, I would look very hard at brining in 2 new coordinators. Ones with experience. An OC who knows smash mouth football. One who knows how to coach and call a physical game. One who understands what it means to "impose" your will on an opponent. One who wants to get away from the passing game we are seeing now. We do not appear to have a QB capable of doing this type.
3) Make ST a priority.
4) Get a full time, non coach recruiting coordinator. Preferably a former Husker great. Shields, Wistrom, Booker, Gill
5) Look at the top programs from the past 5 years and see what the hell they do in practice. Duplicate, replicate, repeat.
7) Evaluate what they do in strength and conditioning. Look at Wisky, Bama, MSU etc....
8) Find a way to make nice with the fans and bury the hatchet
9) Let the players no a fumble, drop, missed assignment etc equals time on the pine
10) Bring back the info from the past about guys camp performance ie lifter of the year, 40 times etc that Husker power used to show
11) get a team psychologist. Sirles comments last night about "turn overs are who we are" was REALLY, REALLY scary IMO.
12) Stay angry. Angry Bo was a winner. Neutered Bo not so much
Thoughts or any other things?
