The Scarlet Pimpernel

I see it here all the time. There are a bunch of people who want to hire Mickey, even after this Whipple disaster.

They're just targeting me, as usual. I don't know why such supposedly highly intelligent men don't just use the ignore button.

The point is, we don't see it HERE. So that conversation can end HERE. Go fight that battle where you're seeing it.

Hey bro, remember back in 2013 when I said we were going to lose to Minnesota and that we were dangerously close to a downward spiral and you said, "We aren't gonna lose to f'n Minnesota." Good times

but I'm not fighting any battles. That's the point you're missing.

If you don't still see/hear a LARGE portion of the fanbase saying they still want Mickey, then you're either in denial or not looking/listening very well.

You could start by telling us who this "large contingent" is. 

 

I see one.  Maybe two.

on Facebook? Are you serious?

Or... and hear me out here, because this is hilarious... OR, you're making up a straw man to argue against.

 

Classic FLU.

if you don't see the large contingent of folks who still are clamoring for MJ, idk what to tell you.

I do prefer Aranda over Stoops but it doesn't appear Aranda will leave.  I was simply speculating about Stoops given a flight from Lexington coming in tomorrow.

Stoops' next HC stop will be at Iowa, imo.

If you're seeing this massive wave of people "overflowing" social media begging for Mickey to be the head coach, go fight that fight on social media.

I'm not fighting anything; everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I just don't get it.

This post is the winner.

Yeah except some have said that Trev doesn't want to pay "too much" which I don't agree with at all. Pay whatever it takes to get your man.

Well don't count on Husker Fans to want the Army coach he lost to Air Force today. 

I've always preferred Calhoun over Monken. Every time we are looking for a new HC I mention Calhoun.

and yet social media is still overflowing with folks who want MJ to be named full-time head coach... what am I missing here?

How fitting that our best player drops the ball at the end

that was the big knock on him at LSU... drops too many balls

Smothers' decision-making is questionable, at best. That said, he's still better than Purdy.

so you're telling me there's a chance?!

no. There's not.

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

Why would a head coach like him downgrade to a oc role? That makes no sense.  Now I'd love for Nebraska to offer Urban but Nebraska loves to beat themselves with stupid decisions so we has Husker Fans have to accept that which I have. I hold out for hope that they will eventually change their fortune but who knows. 

Offering Chadwell the OC position would be a slap in the face. If I were him and they offered that spot I'd hang up on them.

Ok Trev, time to make the announcement. 

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

I'll be the first to say it again, I'd offer Chadwell. Appears to have not made the final 4, but would sure as hell love his O at NU.  Dude is a genius.  Why not offer as OC,  What great ideas to you have?  No one ever said Urb was begging to come here.  But why not offer him?  Same with Prime.

I'd be ok w/ that... definitely him over Monken, that's for sure. I just don't think he'd come as an OC, only HC

I don’t think that’s Trev’s plan. That’s the plan for a stupid majority of NU fans. 

I've seen quite a few posts on social media that his plan is to eventually announce MJ... if so, we're going to enter the point of no return.

Living in South Louisiana, the knock on Mickey has always been that he doesn't have enough between the ears to be a head coach. 

Just now, LumberJackSker said:

Same people who think head coaches will come to Nebraska to be coordinators

This x 100

If Trev's current plan is to hire MJ, he better come up with a new plan, and quick.

Welp, I said back in the 1Q that Minnesota would end their 32-game streak of losing after trailing by 10+... easiest prediction I've ever made.

Purdy is on the level of McCaffrey
