I'll be happier than a puppy with two peckers if it's Petersen
-
I'm a fan of Aranda from his time at LSU. I'd be ok w/ him.
-
Matt Canada?
-
Oh yeah?
-
Hate to break it to Nebraska fans but when most people think of Lincoln they think of being in the middle not nowhere with cold weather and nothing to do. Not saying it's accurate (well, maybe it is); just saying that's how people perceive it to be.
-
Bottom line is, Trev isn't going to hire anyone with questionable character or one that clashes the tradition and honor and humility that Nebraska represents. That eliminates Urban, Kiffin, and Deion in my opinion. I repeat: in my opinion.
-
Honestly I don't trust too many Nebraska media members. I've seen some of their favorites and they're pretty much opposite of mine. I'd be elated if it were Petersen, but that just seems too good to be true.
-
I don't think anyone is calling him trash, per se; they just don't want him here.
-
What makes you think that Klieman is any better at recruiting than Campbell?
-
One of my concerns - something that others have touched upon - is that he probably started reaching out to potential candidates last year, when Frost's seat was getting really hot. The problem is that some of those he likely reached out to - Campbell, for example - have lost some of their luster since then.
-
I don't have any delusions of grandeur. That said, 7/8-win ceilings just isn't good enough.
-
I agree - if your plan is to hire Campbell you're better off keeping Mickey instead
-
Perhaps, but he'd assemble an incredible staff, and I have no doubt he'd keep MJ on board.
-
I've seen many people mention him as a candidate for GT
-
See, that's the attitude most fans have. Expectations have fallen so low that people are ok with being mediocre. F that.
-
His stock is dropping, I know that much. He's probably looking for a way out of Ames and I'm sure Trev is well-aware of his interest.
-
Sounds nice, as long as it's not us.
-
Fool's gold
-
As I've said before, I have no proof. Just my own personal belief. As I've said before, I hope I'm wrong. I just don't think I am.
-
As much as I wish otherwise, be prepared to be disappointed with the hire. Those guys just go against the culture and it's really as simple as that.
-
Maybe from your perspective, but on a national level, Ole Miss is the better job right now. Not to mention he's doing well there, so he has no reason to leave.
-
Exactly. But some people don't like to shake things up. They want routine, and what they're accustomed to. Heck, there are folks who get their panties in a bunch when we wear alternate uniforms one game out of the year.
-
Even though it might be the injection of revitalization that we need, I just don't see us hiring any of these flashy, big-name guys (Meyer, Deion, Kiffin, etc.) who would go against our traditional, blue-collar, hard-working culture.
-
Again, moving from Ole Miss to Nebraska would be a step down and make no sense
-
It's hard to tell if people are serous or joking on some of these posts... I hope that some of the names I've seen mentioned are intended to be jokes
