    So there is now a flight returning from Colorado Springs to Lincoln in the morning.  For any active coaches the time to interview for a new gig would be a Sunday or during a bye week. My gut tells me Calhoun is in the final group being considered.

    If he is even being considered the money going to that state of the set facility should be donated to anything else and the football program should fold

    Fair enough, BOB has a great resume. He is getting carried by superior athletes. But the defense is arguably worse with said athletes. Not my first choice but he makes the list with that experience. The real difference is he has been with Saban and that experience should change him for the better.

     

    I don't get the take on Mullen. Was really close to beating an unbeatable Alabama team in 2020 and was a DC away from still being at Florida. He got fired way too quick. It would have been like us firing Frost after 2019. Although, I think he would have been a better hire for us in 2014 and it seems he may still want some time away from coaching. 

    Mullen hates recruiting. You can skate in SEC country and get guys but not to Nebraska.  He could surround himself with superior recruiters like Mickey but eventually he will need to meet and smooth talk parents

    The big question is when will the decision be made? It would have to be the first week of December unless said coach is in a conference championship game. 

     

    My updated list.

     

    1 Lane Kiffin-  He would be a home run for us. One or two losses do not change that. 

    2 Dave Aranda- He fits the bill for a coach that Trev wants.

    3 Bill O'Brien- He coached with Nick Saban. Many of his coaches do better after they are done with his schooling.

    4 Lance Leipold- most likely staying put but would be a solid hire. 

    5 Dan Mullen/Chris Petersen- could happen but both may enjoy their TV gigs.

     

    Sleeper: Kalen Deboer- He has ties to the Midwest and may want to coach in one of the top conferences closer to home. 

    Second Sleeper Gus Malzahn- I think he likes the South and stays. However, money talks and that could sway him. 

    If 3 happens, ill quit Nebraska football 

    If it is Mullen, Nebraska will fully shift to being a volleyball school.

    Why would Heupel leave Tennessee?

    Lincoln is closer to Aberdeen than Knoxville.  Duh.

     

    Winning the big 10 west is easier too.

     

    He wouldnt leave, just a pipedream.  

     

    Since hes a Sooner and if it didnt work out, we could all.assume he did it to further ruin Nebraska
