2017 five worst coordinator hires in CFB (Pat Forde) My goodness. It's a sad joke that the Huskers have had three of them on the payroll. Bob Diaco, Nebraska. “At least Diaco’s hair is perfect.” Shawn Watson, Pittsburgh. “overall offensive production is on pace for its lowest levels since 2011” Tim Beck, Texas. “The only Big 12 team with a lower pass-efficiency rating or averaging fewer yards per play than the Longhorns is Kansas”

Coach Riley wants to hire a Walk-on Coordinator. I personally think this is great. I think the key points this person should have would be: 1) Must have roots in Nebraska. This person needs to know what it’s like to grow up with the dream of playing in Memorial stadium. 2) Must have recruiting experience. Has to be able to convince the kids to give up a scholarship offer from other schools and walk on in Lincoln. 3) Must already have a good relationship with the Nebraska high school coaches (especially in Omaha and Lincoln). If the coaches are on board they can help convince the kids that Nebraska is the best place to be. I think we can lock down this state and make it hard for any outside schools to recruit here. What do you think about the key points? Ultimately I want to know who you think Coach Riley should look at. --- Sorry if there is already a discussion on this topic. I searched for it and could not find one.
