What makes you think he would be worse at that than the other candidates being discussed?

Familiarity with the players. He has ties with these guys. He knows them. He may feel loyalty to them. (...and he may not) A new guy can cut anyone he wants because he has zero ties to them or their families. Just a thought.

If Mickey is retained, I think we won't lose too many.  If perhaps someone who doesn't carry much cache is hired, we lose a bunch.  Hate to say this but I think Mickey needs to be retained for at least one season in order to keep things moving forward.  Whether thats as an assistant or head.  Odds of him staying around if not named HC are slim at best, but thats the ultimate best case scenario. 

I would worry about Mickey not making the tough cuts that are needed because so and so has been loyal to him. I am praying no whip next year. Totally unimpressed with him.  I am dreaming of cutting those who can't/are not going to add anything to the team, and a mass influx of NIL talent. Hopefully with better coaching and talent, NU can get to a bowl game.  My other thought is what would Mickey run on offense? I am ready for the wishbone over the crap I have the last 20 years. I write that semi-sarcastically. Beef up the line and let's push the other team around for a change. 

So painful to agree with that

Is there any one coach that we would hire that you would think would be disastrous.

There are people that like Whipple's play calling?

 

The other team’s DC can’t get enough of it.

Guess I’m different, but everything about today proves to me that MJ should be permanent HC.  I liked the game plan, I like his in game style, I love his recruiting. I feel that given the bits and pieces he inherited, he has done an outstanding job. Sure would have loved a W, but this year is not about winning it’s about resurrecting a program that feel I’ll to the ginger hair Joker. The amount of damage that mental midget did …. I do not even have words for it. Almost Insurmountable maybe?

Did you watch the game today?

What announcement would that be? There's nothing to announce.

 Maybe there should be. Give the fans a little hope for the future. 

Ok Trev, time to make the announcement. 

Keep rolling chubba out

Can they roll chubby out?  Seems he has some wheels. I missed the 1st Q.

Maybe MJ sees the mess firsthand and is trying to get out ahead of the rat dump mess this program is in. I wouldn’t fault him.

Also if this type of performance and game plan continues, neither Grant nor Palmer will be here next year.

NU can go 3-9 without them (tell Grant to put his head down and get the first down)

This performance is completely unacceptable after a bye week at home. That is why Mickey cannot be our next HC.

You do know they have to play with the same players and don’t get new guys after a bye?

I started the season at 4. Might have been generous there. 

I would like to know what MJ would run if given the offensive keys. He could be a run and shoot guy for all we know. I long for the day where NU continually steamrolls the opposing Dline on 3rd and 1. Sigh. 

First time I ever wanted to go to Detroit 

I wonder if Mickey would be willing to cut loyal guys who suck to bring in new guys via NIL? What  would that do in the locker room?  Whoever Trev picks is going to need to overhaul the whole team.

What was wrong with Benning?

Preference between the two’s voices. Benning drones a bit comparatively speaking imo. Wish him the best though.  

I miss Davidson on the radio. Hope he’s a good sales guy. NU needs A LOT of NIL monies to get half way athletic. 

My goodness

I'll be grateful to Mickey for squeezing out 2 wins out this group of weak players.  But the rebuild will require the new coach to purge alot of the softness on the current roster

I look forward to it

I don’t know how to add gifs

NU’s you old fullback training footage. Those were the days. 

My hope is either they win 5 and get a pity bowl, or they play a ton of freshman. Cut the underperforming ones off. If they win six, MJ should be coach of the year.

It’s scary that a position of depth entering the season has no depth at all. Rahmir is basically off the team for the rest of the season. I don’t get what happened to Ervin, unless it was an injury. Yant is never the answer. Not sure what people see in him.  

I see a full back, but it doesn’t help this offense.
