  1. It may have been posted somewhere already but I read on twitter that there’s smoke that Rattler is entering the portal and following Satterfield. He got a pass since Riley left for USC so apparently he still gets another transfer without having to sit a year
  2. I hate don’t hate the hire. He’s been successful at the college level and I don’t correlate being unsuccessful in the NFL meaning you’ll be unsuccessful in CFB. He’s not necessarily a “ big name home run hire” but honestly the chances of Nebraska getting one of those guys ever is pretty small. We got what people thoughts was a home run in Frost and it was a huge bust. Rhule is a defense first guy who from what I’ve read believes in strong line play and a physical run game. If he and his staff can develop players he’ll be successful at Nebraska
  3. Fritz was an a$$ for 12 years while at Central Missouri! (A little D2 humor for ya!)
  4. I think you're dead on with this. Imo the new coach should come in, and ask Mickey to go back to being passing game coordinator and recruiting coordinator and make him the highest paid guy in the country at those positions. Mickey is an asset to the program that would definitely hurt to lose
  5. If Bob Stoops comes here I'll kiss your grits
  6. I dont hate the idea of O'Brien, but whoever hires him is doing so with the risk of him bolting back to the NFL if he has some success. If thats not a worry then I think he would be a solid hire. He took over a Penn St. program that was reeling after the Joe Pa incident and guided them pretty well through that crazy mess.
  7. There are a lot of similarities between Martinez and Thompson. However in situations when we needed Martinez to drive and win the game, i had practically no confidence in him doing so. I always expected a terrible pick or untimely fumble. Right now I think I would have a lot more confidence in Thompson
  8. Hopefully our NIL situation helps with getting high end talent
  9. I think you're spot on here. If he got in the right program under the right HC he could turn into a good HC. A lot like what appears to have happened with Lane Kiffin and Steve Sarkisian after they spent time with Saban
  10. That's definitely a possibility. All I know is that whomever the HC and OC are, I hope they have a ton of success!
  11. I wasn't trying to say that Whip sucks, however he's not going to be here long before sailing off into retirement. I think HCMJ will want someone who'll be here for more than a year or two
  12. IF Joseph gets the HC gig, I believe he will look for the best OC he can find and Whip would get moved to analyst if he wanted to stay around. The only way Whip would stay on as OC is if Joseph couldn't find a quality OC to take his place. If NU will open up the checkbook then I dont see that being a problem
  13. I truly wonder how the game vs OU would have looked if HCMJ would have had fired Chins and had a bye week to get things in order
  14. It's crazy what can happen when you simplify the scheme and just let the guys be confident and play fast!
  15. I like the aggressiveness, it was the execution that was terrible
  16. If anyone should understand the offense Wisconsin runs and how to stop it, it's Bielema.
  17. I'm glad a guy with your high end Illinois degree uses Wiki for research
  18. Prior to Frost's disappointing run at Nebraska, this would have been laughable. Frost was coming off an undefeated season at UCF, beating Auburn in a bowl game, in his 2nd year as HC. He was the hottest up and coming coach on the market. It was considered by everyone to be a fantastic hire by Nebraska. Unfortunately it did not work out. Deion has now coached 2 season at Jackson State and has success as well. When you look at their coaching resumes side by side, prior to Frost being at Nebraska, there's no way you can make that claim. And that's not even including his time as a coordinator
  19. Deion doesnt strike me as the time to be disinterested. I think the reason he would struggle in Lincoln would be is larger than life personality might not mesh well
