In a shocking move. Urban Meyer retires from the NFL. Decides he doesn't want the pressure of a head coaching job and decides he will be the OC for Frost.

I can already see him rockin' his quarter zip and hitting up Barry's during College Night 

There's no one else Frost would want to "kick it over" with!!! 

(Okay I'll let myself out now............)

Let's make a deal!  You wanna be the next Offensive Coordinator at a Power 5 School?  Choose a door:

Door #1:  You are named the OC, but you are coming to a program where the Head Coach is heavily involved with the offense and has been the team's playcaller.  Could be an issue with him giving up control of "his" offensive schemes.

Door #2:  You are named the OC, but you are now entering a conference that is focused on defense, and full of quality/experienced defensive coordinators who develop NFL talent on that side of the ball.

Door #3:  You are named the OC, but you are joining a team where the Head Coach just restructured his contract to reduce his buyout after 6 games next season.  Said Head Coach has not had a winning season since joining the program in 2018, and the offense has been a top issue as to why the team is underperforming.

Three challenging options, right?  The problem is EVERY DOOR IS NEBRASKA!!!!

So you're telling me a seasoned, successful Power 5 OC is coming here????

The media narrative regarding the firing asst coaches in season "allows NU to hit the ground running with hiring coaches and getting them on the recruiting trail" is losing traction.  Feels like NU is no closer today with hiring/recruiting than they were 2+ weeks ago.  Something is not going according to plan.......

Pretty interesting revisiting this thread after yesterday's news.  A couple thoughts rolling through my head:

1.  Was Moos given the golden parachute as a way to move on from the irreparably broken relationship between Frost and Moos, after the end around concerning the Oklahoma schedule change?  I could easily see a scenario where it became a "one of us has to go" mandate to Ted Carter/Ronnie Green, and ultimately, the decision was made to have Moos "retire", while collecting full payment.

2.  Was the NCAA investigation the final straw and/or cause to allow NU to push Moos into "retirement"?  The NCAA investigation was not public knowledge when Moos left in June, but I'm convinced NU knew about this before his departure.  I know the media pushed the "he was always gone at his ranch" narrative, but you wonder if Carter/Green tried to get ahead of the situation by having Moos "retire" and give him full payment (as long as he signed NDA), knowing that the investigation would become public down the road.  Also curious why the announcement of Lambrecht's departure just happened to occur days before the news broke of the NCAA investigation.

HMMMMMMM

I didn't mean to suggest that the "Take Oklahoma off the schedule" issue led to Moos leaving/firing/whatever.  My point is Benning seemed to go out of his way to mention that there is some ongoing turmoil within the Athletic Dept.

I'm sorry I can't remember which day it was this week, but I heard Benning bring up the "take Oklahoma off the schedule" fiasco on his radio show and aluded to the fact that there was still some tension within Athletic Dept.  I found the timing of his comments odd, but perhaps he knew something was brewing??

BIG fan of UNO this weekend.  Great to see they are sold out for their opening series at their new field.  Beat the Jays!

In all seriousness, they are a program on the rise.  They have closed the talent gap vs the other local D-1 schools, and will continue closing the gap if the B1G keeps treating baseball like it's a club sport.

No fans allowed at games next week in Round Rock, per B1G, even though Round Rock is allowing fans this weekend for SEC/Big 12 games.  

B1G gonna B1G......

I've read the press releases from some of the other conference schools, and only Maryland mentioned that they hope to have fans as the season progresses.  It's time Michigan/Indiana/Maryland/Iowa/Minnesota (only schools that really care about baseball) start joining Nebraska and Ohio State in fighting for their programs, or the future of B1G baseball is doomed.

I have heard the same about Round Rock and Minneapolis.  All B1G teams know their schedule, but for some unknown reason (incompetence?) the schedules are not available to the public.

I agree on the lack of media coverage.  I know Gary Sharp went on a little rant last week on 1620, but it's been mostly crickets.  Guess we need some baseball families to pool some cash and put Mike Flood on retainer.    

This is 100% about saving $ for the conference.  If the NCAA baseball tournament generated the payout the basketball tournament does, there would be nonconference games galore, and the schedule would've been published long ago.  Bolt has to be chewing nails on how the conference treats this sport.

Relax.....JD just settin up a 98 yd TD catch so he can keep moving up the career yardage list!

AM must know where the bodies are buried.....

I figured it out!!!   Frost set up the outside screens to set up the middle with Mills in the 2nd half!  

TIME TO RIOT!!!!!  #InLukeWeTrust

For the love of God please cover this kickoff!

LUKE!!!!!

Cost of continuing with Martinez >>>> Cost of ruining his confidence (whatever's left of it)

Your offense needs a spark, Frost!!!!

Just a lost season for Martinez....Bring in Luke

Mills off the milk carton!!!!

Nice passing Favra
