He might be a better fit at Nebraska now that we've not won a conference championship since 1999.
Who's our next coach?

This is pretty great but you had jack wagons talking about how Frank Solich shouldn’t have been fired a handful of posts above this. It def needs a square on the bingo board. It comes up like clockwork.

I see you like Tim Hawkins as well. Anyway, I own a jacked wagon, it's fast and has stripes. And half the people on here would love to own it if they could afford it.
Anywho, you wanna fire Solich after a 7 win season? Go ahead, but you don't fire any coach after a 9 win season (and there's an argument to be made he gets credit for a 10 win season). Even T.O. would agree with that.
I even mention Urban or Stoops and people reply with, "You think coaches like that are giving us a serious look?!"
You know why they talk to me that way? Cuz when a school gets a reputation for bouncing someone after 9 wins, quality coaches shy away. That's not MY opinion, that what others have told me in reply. Now I don't mind firing Callahan; Riley & Frost, but Bo and Solich stick in my craw.
My jackwagon. Jealous? I don't blame you.

DeBoer took over a 4-8 Washington team and had them in the NC game in year two. He took Alabama to the playoffs in year two. I'm not sure what leads anyone to believe he isn't a great coach.

Zac Taylor is making about $4.5 million a year, a middling NFL head coach's salary.
Matt Rhule will average $11.7 million a season coaching Nebraska.

Are we really paying him that much?
$8.5 million this year, $12.5 million by 2030.

I'm sorry. I thought you were talking about right now. My brain did not compute the "average" part of your statement. I wasn't taking into account future earnings.
Fair enough. But what you have to deal with is also exponentially higher.

That's a good comparison because neither team has done much in 20+ years.
