Based on what evidence? Maintaining a good defensive culture? People thought that about Will Muschamp and Texas too. Ok, then Iowa instead. Or any other B1G west team. My point is that Urban is a close to a sure thing that there is out there right now.

Let’s say Wisconsin is currently looking for a coach and all of the likely candidates are the same ones we’re debating. As a Huskers fan, which one coach would “worry “ you most if they were hired by Wisky? Anyone not picking Urban Meyer?

If we didn't suck at tackling, I wouldn't care. But, then how can you know if you suck or not if you don't do it? We didn't find out until it was too late in Dublin.

So people on this board were wrong. How, again, is that on Mickey?

You're really putting that on Mickey, huh? How about the guy who ran the defense for 4+ years. Or the guys who recruited and supposedly developed the O-line? That loss wasn't on Mickey.

He got run out?? The guy who wasn't even a HC for a week.

And just pluck the coach of whoever wins? It’s one game. Are we really that pathetic?

All I heard Stai say was that Frost missed some meetings. It was the one of the other hosts who was saying the stuff about the players, possibly trying to get Brendan to confirm it, which he gave no indication either way that I could thell. I didn't see anything out of line.

“It’s not his dad, but it is his dad “?? Or Like others will be dramatic because a teammates Dad was a Husker. Didn’t seem to be a problem with other Husker legacies. Seems like a weird thing to worry about. Caleb would make a good safety and returner for us or wherever he goes. Plus he’s a good student. im guessing you just don’t like Damon. If that’s the case, don’t pay attention to him.

Caleb is the best tackler I’ve seen at the high school level. People who don’t care for Damon just need to get over themselves. Good God.

Let’s cheer for Scott to get right, whatever he may need to get right for himself. I really think he is going to make a helluva good offensive coordinator some day for some team. I think his style would fit the SEC more so than the B1G.

Maybe we steal him with a good hire? We sure weren’t going to with Margaritaville Frost.

Baggage? What are you talking about?

Yep. Sorry, no more questions. We're out of time.

Basically Trev is going to pick a coach who’s already had success somewhere else. It’s how he revitalized UNO hockey and it will keep Trev employed if said coach doesn’t work out. Taking a risk on an unproven and having it not work out would be bad for everyone including Trev. That being said, if MJ leads us to 6-7 more wins, then how do you not retain him? Just my 2 cents.

Good points. The improvement will have to be eye opening. Not impossible, but Trev knows we are not in any position to take a big risk here.

In Frost’s first season here, I’m almost positive there were no hired officials attending either in spring ball or fall camp. And our penalties reflected that.

If we make a bowl game and improvement is evident, stick with Mickey.

I think most of us would be good with Campbell if he’s the guy. I think whoever it ends up being, it won’t match the enthusiasm of 2018. Maybe that’s it.

Does MJ hire a 10th coach? Might as well, right?

And here I was thinking opposing defenses were about to get way easier starting with Oklahoma.

Nobody who hired those past coaches are even around anymore. Potential candidates aren't going to hold Callahan and Riley against us. Fans will be fans--that's true anywhere. What "unrealistic" goals has Trev Alberts laid out for the next hire? Trev essentially said "we aren't living in the past anymore and worrying about what we did in the 90s".

How can you claim to know what these coaches think? As far as recruiting and public demands, this job is no worse than really any other Blue Blood program. If a coach is good, all those things you mentioned get easier. I'm sorry, but Nebraska is still a good job. The chances of Mickey turning this around enough to end up getting the job are pretty slim. I would love to see him retained by the next guy, though.

I guess I get your stance, but has Trev announced what values are to be aligned with? There’s plenty to suggest Frost also had some off the field indiscretions. Plus the NCAA infraction. And Trev still gave him another chance. I hadn’t heard of Urban kicking a player. Did that get confirmed? I’m not advocating UM either way, but we aren’t in search of a Sunday school teacher. I wouldn’t discount anyone at this point.

What value(s) of Urban’s conflict with NU’s?
