100% agree with the bolded part.

Domestic dogs and wolfs are the same species. FYI

I predicted 7 for the season at the beginning. So, I say they win 2 of the 3. Most likely MD and IA.

Sims is the better runner, but not by a lot. If he can manage his passing better (more like HH), than he would be the better choice going forward.

The Big 10 has had an eye out for NC and Virginia I believe. If Clemson and FSU join the SEC, I could definitely see the Big 10 going after NC and ND. Honestly, I could see them going after Clemson and FSU

I'm not saying we should have kept Bo. He burned the bridges on his own. I just remember that most people thought anyone could win 9 games a year at Nebraska (I thought it was easier than it seems). Ruhle was not my first choice for the new coach, but I'm not disappointed by the hire. He was near the top when he became available. I have a better feeling about him than SF. just my two cents.

If the former is the case, then why has it only been done once since Bo was fired? Legitimate question.

Where? I've been teaching for 26 years in three different states, K-12 and college. The only teachers that ever made that were professors at universities (and this is only bigger institutions) or administrators (not teaching). As for only working 9 months. Many teacher work on professional development (have to to stay certified), plan, and prep for fall classes during the summer. Most teachers have to get second jobs during the summer to help make ends meet. They don't get paid for the summer or any holidays/breaks.

And the higher ranked team hosts the first round.

Probably more on the (former) coaches

UCF just had a QB enter the Portal. He sat out Saturday's game to preserve a redshirt season. Started last year. Don't know much about him or which QB it is exactly.

The last good RB coach was Ron Brown.

Damn!!! He definitely needs new shoes.

unfortunately yes.

If Bo would have gotten a real DC, he would probably still be here(maybe). People might have put up with his anger issues if he had performed better on D.

Or the "anyone can win 9 games a year here"

Michigan got better when Harbaugh started focusing on running the ball. Last year, they hardly threw the ball early. They REALLY focused on running, then later started working in some passes as the season went on. They basically did the same thing this year. Establish the run and the rest will/should fall into place. To Harbaugh's credit, he realized that this is what he needs to do. It's how he was successful at Stanford. I believe Neb's run/pass ratio favors the run, but they haven't established the run. I'm not trying to say why or how, just that they need to establish the run game. I'm not really concerned with the run/pass ratio. I think this is what all the run first people mean.

This is the thing that scares me the most about hiring a new coach.

Unfortunately, most people thought that it would be when SF was retained. I know I was worried that it would be. Hoped that SF would turn it around, but still worried that it would be wasted.

My best and honest answer is his personality. I kind of put him in the same category as L Kiffin. I didn't like him when he was in college or the pros. He was a great player, but that's not enough for me. Maybe I'm getting to old. I have done some recent research on him and he does advocate for players and coaches. Maybe he could be good at Nebraska and if he was to come here I would support him. Hell, I supported BC and MR and I didn't want either one of them either.

Urban is the only "available" coach that could do this. sure, a few other established coaches could do it, but they definitely are not leaving they're jobs. Do i think Urban is coming here, no. Prime might be able to get some recruits here, but i would not want him here. Just my opinion.

If the offense can get going again, three wins is definitely a possibility.

This is how i have been feeling.

I'll drink to that.

We could hire him and be like Urban and Fickell at OSU.
