First and foremost, yes, I do feel it is unfortunate and in poor taste to already be speculating about Nebraska’s head coach position. Riley has his positives, is still our head coach, and he technically still has a chance to be our head coach going into 2018 and beyond. I for one would be glad to keep him if he were to become successful. However, everyone’s already jumping the gun by discussing the potential vacancy. In particular, there are several threads advocating for Scott Frost. So I would like to make this post in order for us to get a better scope of the potential candidates. I’ve asked a couple people I know in my work place who the upcoming national head coaches are. These guys are more in-tuned to the national college football scene than I am, so I value their input. These are the seven candidates they’ve listed (not necessarily for the Nebraska job, but in general). And honestly, I only knew of two of these coaches prior to doing quick wiki research for this post, thus admittedly this won’t be very in-depth, so if you have anything to add about these coaches or if you have other candidates in mind, please feel free to add. Ultimately, after reviewing the “hot candidate” list for if nothing but to do due diligence, I’m reaffirmed that Frost is the best out there, especially for us due to understanding our expectations and culture. Of these coaches, I'm only confident of Fuente's future as a great head coach.
