It would be really interesting to see stats of when a really good coordinator takes a HC job, do those schools still succeed in the side of the ball where they were a really great coordinator previously?ColoradoHusk said:
I don’t know but I’ve never felt like you should hire for either one as a head coach. I don’t want a defensive minded coach…or an offensive minded coach. I just want a winning minded coach
I think this hire is basically an opportunity for CU to hire an alum who is doing well, and if he has any success, he could stick around in Boulder for a while. I think CU still feels pretty burned from Midnight Mel’s departure.

How about you answer a question? Or any of yall answer it..?
Tell me which head coach will give up their current success, happiness, and paycheck, and whatever they built for their current program, and walk away for the opportunity to coach at Nebraska.
If you can answer that the way I have do before, I would respect it.
Who? Who is successful head coach right now, and will give that up, for Nebraska. Trev and I will wait for your answer. Please be sure to make it realistic. It's an easy question that you apparently have the answer. Floating names and Assistant coaches means nothing.
And here in lies the issue. I'll throw out a few quick names:Yall know what I think. I can live happily being wrong.

) ), Sanders, an up and coming coordinator or MJ?
Love your thoughts. Spot on. Your list of better options is wrong though. None of them moves the needle at all for the position we’re in.And here in lies the issue. I'll throw out a few quick names:
Aranda
Leipold
Klieman
Doeren
DeBoer
Chadwell (I just really like him
You bring up a very valid point. They are at a place having good success or at a place where 8-9 wins a years is status quo and completely acceptable. Why leave? NU is a dumpster fire. I think that the admn, boosters and fan base will not give the next guy 5 years to figure it out. Frost should've been on a SHORT leash in 2020 and gone after that crap show season. Which guy above would want that? Chadwell for the money?
Maybe we have to look at a G5 coach (Chadwell
MJ might not be the "best", but he might be the "best" we can get and more importantly might be the "best" guy for the job. Because maybe the "best" we can get might not actually be the "best" for the job.....I like MJ. I'd like to see what he could do with his staff and roster.
Id take John Garrison at North Carolina State. Im pleasantly surprised most Husker Fans have not brought up his name more to be the offensive line coach.Spacer said:
No, not really. You gave me this:
Was thinking of guys that have been bantered around that are currently HC's. Sadly, I take off my Husker colored glasses and truly wonder what guy with a solid rep would come here. I am unsure if Frost even gets an offer to coach at a HS after how bad he was. An "up and comer" ends up here and pulls a Frost, they are done. No one is looking to hire them. It's going to be interesting for sure.

) - I like him too, G5 - but that's probably the best we can hope for....I guess.
Okay, sorry. I read your post more as a metaphorical “who would leave their sweet gig that’s better than Mickey.” If you’re narrowing it to what you’re saying…then why?
I'll throw out a few quick names:
Aranda - Baylor is better job; UT and OU leaving conference. Nice
Leipold - G5 Buffalo... 1st year P5, at Kansas. Are we seriously saying this is the best for Nebraska?
Klieman - KSU is a better job. UT and OU leaving conference.
Doeren - 7-9 wins per year in ACC; Not too bad, Not great either.
DeBoer - Head coach since Covid 2020. Onto his 2nd team.
Chadwell (I just really like him
I agree with the above. I don't see the guys on the top post leaving to come to NU. Great point about OU and Texas leaving the Big 12, makes it easier for TCU, Baylor or OSU to win. Maybe Chadwell is our guy...
