Dogs In A Pile

Don't forget the 15 yard PF penalty against Asante first play after the KO. Without that extra 15 yards UT would have been out of field goal range. That and the mentioned kick-off OOB really doomed us to the ending the way it did. Everybody b!^@hes about the 01 second but watching the replays many times the ball clearly hit the ground with :01 on the clock.

Said it before, this thread will absolutely crush the the Scott Fruadst mega-thread of 2017. Probably by several hundred pages.

Yeah, when you predictably go berserk several times a game it is 100% guaranteed their will be a camera tracking your every movement so they don't miss any of the raging.

If he and/or his agent thought it wasn't fair then they shouldn't have signed the contract.

I like Aranda, just wish his HC history was a little greater. The last 4 1/4 years with Fraudst has me really leery of coaches with short track records.

Great news. with this weekends games tallied we've vaulted up to 127th in total defense! Already started our return to greatness and we haven't even hired our new coach yet. /s

Even worse than that. One of their losses was to a Missouri Valley FCS team with a 2-2 record.

Totally disagree. 2AM was a class act for his entire 4 years in our program and I was genuinely happy to see him finally end up on a team where he can be successful. He deserves it.

He was somewhat overshadowed by 2AM fantastic performance but Vaughn was almost equally impressive.

No way. People would see his record and go into attack mode. He'd be labeled Riley v2.8 behind all the other 7 or so non-splash candidates that don't meet their standards.

I loved his comment after the game saying the culture at KSU is special. Touché Scotty.

Yep. Can't get a photo to insert but here is a link to the NCAA website - total defense. Not including today's games. NCAA Total Defense

With the #128 ranked defense I think we'd be last in any P5 conference and probably some of the G5 too.

I watched that game and they were beaten by a clearly superior team. But they played hard until the end and didn't give up. Should be a pretty good matchup next week with two fairly evenly matched teams.

Glad we don't have to play KSU, or KU this year. They'd both destroy us.

What do you know that people close to the program don't know or are lying to us about? I have no idea who we can attract but I've heard more than one person with connections in the program state that the dept. is in great shape financially and money will not be an issue for this hire. Every points to Trev spending whatever is necessary to get who he is after.

He is 64-24 (73%) @ Mich. 122-51 (71%) as a HC. Not is the same universe as what I consider to be the worst coach in NU history, FHCSF.

Update from Trev on coaching search.

Because the #1 thing Alberts said in his search was looking for in a new coach was character. Not lack of character or a character.

Done deal? It is a certified rumor after all.

Maybe add Sandusky too if they could manage to spring him from the super max facility where he currently resides. /s

1. Dave Aranda - Yes 2. Jim Leonhard - May turn out to be great but I have a hard time believing Trev will hire someone without a proven track record as HC. Bigger risk. 3. Lance Leipold - Yes. If he can turn KU around I'd like to see what he could do here. 4. Mickey Joseph - Like Micky but a very long shot IMHO. He will really need to knock it out of the park the next 8 games. Would love to see him stay on if he doesn't get it. 5. Matt Campbell - Could do worse but I think there are better choices we could offer, but will they accept? +1 Jamey Chadwell - Intriguing to me. Bigger risk with no P5 background. Think Trev will look to someone more established but Chadwell would be interesting.

Lance Leipold addresses the rumors. Says his focus is building KU into a winner for the long haul. But doesn't say he would not be a candidate for another job either. https://saturdaytradition.com/nebraska-football/nebraska-coaching-search-lance-leipold-addresses-rumors-linking-him-to-other-jobs/

Wow. 136 pages so far in just over 3 weeks. Great job! With probably 10 weeks left until we find out who our next HC will be this thread is on pace to easily eclipse the Scott Frost mega-thread from 2017 and go far beyond it. And the real and/or fabricated leaks haven't even started up in earnest yet!
