Horrible defensive coach.
Great coach at NDSU, doing good things at Wyoming, bad D-coordinator, do not want as the HC at Nebraska.
How was he a bad D coordinator? In his 3 years as a DC our defenses were 20th, 10th, and 45th nationally. We've only had 3 top 20 defenses since then (all under Bo).
That Colorado game was the end of Coach Bohl.How was he a bad D coordinator? In his 3 years as a DC our defenses were 20th, 10th, and 45th nationally. We've only had 3 top 20 defenses since then (all under Bo).
Better then the idiot we have here now

I won't argue that he was a good DC, but to say bad/horrible wouldn't be correct after looking at the whole body of work. I would say giving up over 30 ppg is horrible aka Mr. Diaco

Also, quick story about this game. My family and I were staying at the Marriot in Des Moines when Colorado was playing @ Ames (the game before us) we were there for a wedding. I was wearing a Nebraska jacket and HC Gary Barnett was poking fun about it. I jokingly told him that Eric Crouch was going to run all over them etc. I then got in the elevator and my brother and I were squeezed in between 4 massive lineman and RB Chris Brown. With a low voice their DL said "Wrong jacket for being in here boy" then we all started laughing. I was younger and started spouting out how we were going to dominate them in Boulder. 62 points and 6 rushing TD later by Brown....

I was young and my older brother for the next two weeks blamed the game on me. We then somehow made the NC as we all know so I told him it didn't matter, and the curse was liftedHa ha ha, that's a good story.
But this means that that game was completely your fault, right? Not Barrett Ruud over pursuing every cutback lane?
I think he’s a great coach who knows how to develop talent and has a plan that everyone understands.I'm not actually a Nebraska fan, I like Arkansas. We're probably both going to be looking for new coaches at the end of the year, and I hear people saying Scott Frost to Nebraska is a foregone conclusion. While looking around at potential coaches for Arkansas, I noticed Craig Bohl, the guy who built North Dakota State and won three straight NCs there, is a graduate of Nebraska. If for some reason you didn't get Frost, would he be considered or welcomed? He's having so-so success at Wyoming, but it's Wyoming. Not the easiest place to thrive, and this is only his fourth year. And not to discount the awesome turnaround Frost has given UCF, but I want to say Bohl has proven at least as much.
