good for them. Herman is a savage

I agree that most "top flight" coaching prospects aren't going to be enticed by Nebraska. I think we saw that twice now following the firing of Solich and Pelini. They have too many other options. In my opinion, NU's next hire, whether 3 years or 10 years from now, will need to be "risky" in the sense that you gamble on an assistant who may not be on that top 10 list of "proven" HC's from a smaller school or a highly successful coordinator. More than anything, NU needs to get a coach who is an innovator and has a system designed for success at the college level. I prefer an offensive minded HC, and, as a bonus, a guy with Nebraska ties (what can I say, I have a lot of respect for Osborne). That's why I'll keep my eye on Frost, but I have my doubts as to whether the timing will ever be right for bringing him to Lincoln.* *I say that for two reasons: 1. Riley either does really well and is here 8 to 10 more years or he does very poorly is gone before the 2018 season. In the latter case, I don't see Frost making the jump from UCF after only 2 seasons, but maybe he would. In the former, I think he'll either have failed as an HC or moved on and become ensconced at a top program by the 8 to 10 year mark. 2. From Frost's perspective, he will either do really well at UCF and have opportunities at those "tier 1 resource" programs or he'll do poorly at UCF and Nebraska fans won't want him back in Lincoln. Addressing B, I will never ever advocate for firing a coach after a 9/10 win season, unless it's for clear major off the field incidents (e.g., NCAA violations, legal issues by either the coach or his players, academically failing players, etc.). So, if Riley gets to 19 wins during the next two seasons, you won't hear me calling for his head. But my point simply was that winning .700+ of your games isn't an easy thing to do anywhere, but especially not at a Tier 2 Resource School like Nebraska. As a final note, I would caution against the belief that POB will come in and light the world on fire. The odds are against him generally, and specifically, in Riley's system, first year QBs have struggled mightily (iirc, Armstrong actually posted better numbers in his first season in the system than most of Riley's QBs at OSU). I can also point to some guys, like Hackenburg, who are supposed to be great QBs from a talent perspective, but who are not very prolific as college playmakers. In fact, I'm struggling to recall a really great playmaking pro-style QB who at the college level. That's not to say "drop back" QBs can't be prolific, but that's generally a product of a system, like what Leach or Briles do, more than their inherent abilities as a QB. I really think Riley will get it done here beginning next year so this point is moot but if it gets to year 3 and were 5-7/6-6 You pay Tom Herman whatever it takes to get him here.

Dear Lord please. We need a DE so freaking badly in this class besides Stille who probably gets a RS

Explain to me how this makes any sense: Trevor Knight is transferring to Texas A&M

Ended up signing with Vanderbilt. Nothing official yet but appears to be headed to UConn: http://espn.go.com/college-sports/football/recruiting/player/_/id/140305/tre-bell

If Bama wins another NC you could persuade me although I'd believe it when I actually see it. Indy is about as good of a situation as you can ask for if you if you were looking at a potential NFL opening with a solid QB and a weak division to compete in. Plus, you don't have the immense expectations that come with being the HC at Alabama. I would fully expect that Saban will demand complete control (something he didn't have in Miami). I can't remember where I heard this, but he was lobbying pretty hard for Brees when he was a FA and ended up with Culpepper instead. Say that happens. Who is next coach at Bama!? My guess...whoever they wanted...they would open up the checkbook and steal a coach I know an Alabama grad who is interested in taking one final adventure

All for offering these multi sport athletes in the future. Some of the best DE/TEs are basketball players. Athleticism requirements there are huge.

Ohio State is the Big10 team, I believe. really just don't understand how that makes sense from his end but oh well

Agree 100% here. This kid is going to be an absolute stud. I love Benny but its clear that Glynn is on an entire different level

Smothers is a pretty good name for a DB

He follows two Texas coaches on twitter and his most recent follow is..... Tim Beck. He's keeping it really really close to his chest but its interesting he's following OC's for OSU and Texas

This might have been covered in the past but I haven't seen anything anywhere. Do we know if DPE can get another year because of what happened this year? Does he have to wait until the end of his Senior season to apply for a medical hardship waiver? Would love to get an extra year of DPE if we could

not to mention Moore Westerkamp Reilly. imagine in 2017-18 if we land KJJ and McQuitty. Dear God that would be freaky

I know it won't happen but man imagine if we could have Lamar Jackson and Darnay Holmes as our starting corners in 2 years

that edit is clean AF

Care to elaborate? left USC and went to a JUCO and was looking extremely hard at UNL when he left.. doesn't seem like theres been much traction here though for whatever reason. He might be at another school but last I saw he's still at JUCO in FL with multiple articles saying he will be class of 2016

no interest from the current staff? seems like it would be a no brainer

Hosting him and Holmes in January. Could be a big opportunity to get a head start on the 2017 class

Amir in the video said "Mikale Wilbon said it was really nice but its in the middle of cornfields so we'll see" Sounded like Amir was saying the corn fields thing more than Mikale

If we're going to be a NFL offense we need to be Carolina. Strong, creative run game, led by elite play on the offensive and defensive lines. Watch them every week and its amazing what they do from Shotgun/Single Back/I Formation/2 RB Formations. Extremely creative in both the power run and play action pass game.

Just had a major 50 yard catch for the Jets in OT against the Patriots. Good to see him thriving
