Cy the Cyclone

Dan McCarney with Steve Loney as his OC. And for the guy who says Husker fans are being too hard on BC. Try being a Husker fan in Ames...The Cyclowns may suck but all they have to do is look up and guess who they see heading down to join them in the mythical land of the Big 12 Cellar Dwellers?

You should have taken McCarney when he was available. He had a good run as HC with ISU with a miserable lack of talented personnel. Think what he could do if he actually had real football players to work with...as he seems to have in Florida. Still, he would probably be better suited as a DC. Mark Farley? Good succesful coach who has proven himself in I-AA. Beats Big 10 and Big 12 schools pretty consistently. Seems to recruit well and has Big 12 experience under Terry Allen when he was at Kansas. Maybe a good darkhorse candidate?

Why the big deal with Pelini when the choice for a new coach is obvious... You want a guy with experience? This guy has experince at both the major college and pro level...as a head coach, not as a coordinator or an assistant. You want a guy with ties to Cornhusker football? Aside from TO, there is not a more recognized name in Huskerland than this guy. You want a guy with proven success? 157-29 coaching record, 3 National Championships and 12 Big 8 conference championships. Barry Switzer is your guy. Boosters would love him, he's a great recruiter, he's worked with/against TO for years...best of all, he's available. Sure, he's a little old but no older than TO. Switzer knows Cornhusker tradition...and he would sure fill the stands on Saturday.
