One more note about Logan for Nizz. He resigned at ECU after the 2002 season and did some radio work for 3 or 4 Army football games this year. Still had a few years on his deal that is being paid out. With all the openings this year, I can't believe that no one has called this guy with the success he had in the past. Although it pains me to say it, congrats on the NC. Lots of 2nd guessing going on in the Sooner Nation about pulling White during the game, seems most think they know more than Stoops about coaching. No way he was going to pull Jason; LSU's defense was in our offenses head all night and OU did not need to bring in an unexperienced QB in to face that. Later, cozysooner

Well Red I was just pondering why this guys name has not come up. He is a good coach and in my opinion (which doesn't amount to much) is a good fit for NU. He likes to run the ball with athletic QBs and isn't afraid to put it in the air if need be. Just looking at what he did with the talent at ECU, I would bet he could bring the Huskers back to NC level. From an outsiders point of view, it seems your AD is looking to make a statement like OU did with Schnellenberger and we all know how that ended up. Good Luck! cozysooner

Pretty good coach and from the midwest (Tulsa) too. Took a totally nothing program East Carolina and built it into a solid program. The guy runs a option/passing scheme and uses the type of athletes Nebraska usually has.
