HuskerfaninOkieland Posted November 22, 2006 Share Posted November 22, 2006 Too bad for Jay. Link The only two known coaches to interview for the head football coaching position at Iowa State have been eliminated from consideration, according to multiple sources close to both coaches. Nebraska offensive coordinator Jay Norvell and San Diego head coach Jim Harbaugh were notified by Cyclone athletic director Jamie Pollard Tuesday night that they no longer are on his list of potential replacements for coach Dan McCarney.

schmidwd Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 I was actually hoping Novell would get the job. Although he would still be in the same division, Husker Nation could have promoted Watson to OC and hired a QB coach from the list of Callahan's many contacts. Quote Link to comment
Always a husker Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 To me thats good news. We need to keep the same staff together. It probably helps recruiting if we keep the same staff. Quote Link to comment

husker rob Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 To bad for Jay, cant fault a guy for wanting to move up. needs a few more years OC experience at D1 level before moving into a HC job IMO Quote Link to comment
huskernumerouno Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Now he should call a game that would make them rethink their decision. BLOW THESE GUYS AWAY Quote Link to comment
Blackshirt Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Wow, sounded like it was going to be like shooting effing hillbillies ina barrel for Norvell. I know theres always more than meets the eye, but that just seems strange that the only 2 guys interviewed were told "no thanks". Presumably it was b/c of the "vibe" the AD got from them, opposed to their resume/coaching philosophies -- b/c those things can be assessed from afar. But who does the AD have to compare to? I dont know about them, but if I found out that both myself and a 1 legged guy lost an ass kicking contest... to a hypothetical no legged guy - I'd feel like a big Cbox. He clearly has someone else in mind... perhaps someone will get on AIR STEVE afterall and he can drop him off in LAmes. Quote Link to comment
Pedro Guerrero Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 He clearly has someone else in mind This is what I was thinking. He must have either got news about someone being avaible or someone else blew his doors off. Norvell will get a HC job in next few years though. Quote Link to comment

The ISU fans are clearly standing around scratching their heads on this one as well. Most of them think Pollard has his man and is just waiting for the right time to make the announcement.

huskerdavo Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Thats good the staff staying together is good Quote Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Fine by me!!! I would prefer this staff stay together for the next couple of years.......I think that Jamie Pollard is a dumba$$ anyways!!!! Quote Link to comment
Always a husker Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Ya I think Norvell needs to stay at Nebraska, but Jamie Pollard is going to be in a bad position if he cant find a coach. Quote Link to comment
