WR coach

[Eric the Red]

Just a quick note, who will be the next WR coach????

 

Callahan must have a few candidates in mind. Any rumors or will he wait until after recruiting is finished.

[DJR313]

How about Tim Brown? Him and Callahan are such good buddies.

[HuskerBob]

yeh good one djr!!

[Benard]

alot of people think norvell moves to wr coach, his natural coaching position and we hire a QB coach.

I thought that Norvell was tight ends coach at Oakland?

[Eric the Red]

How about Jerry Rice???????????????

How about Jerry Rice???????????????

not going to happen.

 

If rice plays like he did on monday he won't be retiring anytime soon.

[Eric the Red]

Is there any word on this at all??

[kramer]

I think that's probably what will happen. A lot of interviews for assistant positions take place at that coaches convention which occurs after the bowl games. Solich hired most of his new assistant positions two years ago after attending that conference. Unfortunately, Callahan didn't have that luxury last year, because he was hired after the convention.

The reason there isn't a lot of buzz around a new WR coach is because there are "bigger fish to fry" now. Namely finishing recruiting strong, looking at next year's recruiting class and continuing to work on practice and preparation technique. NU can recruit right now without a WR coach. I am sure the search the staff will take their time in getting the WR coach they want. I wouldn't be surprised to see a coach with NFL experience.

Great!! Not another one of those NFL Nazi types that drive away all of the good players from our team.

Heard this rumor earlier in the week... David Shaw was the recepient of Scott Frost's first collegiate touchdown pass at Stanford. In Frost's opinion, Shaw would be a great choice for the position...take Frost's opinion for what it's worth, because he has been critical of many decisions lately.

New WR coach from Miami Dolphins?

 

Marc Trestman, currently the WR/QB coach of the Miami Dolphins -

 

Proile: http://www.miamidolphins.com/lockerroom/co..._trestman_m.asp

 

While Trestman was Oakland’s offensive coordinator in 2002, the Raiders led the NFL in total offense (389.8 ypg) and passing offense (279.7 ypg), as quarterback Rich Gannon was named the NFL’s Most Valuable Player and earned his second trip to the Pro Bowl in as many years. He threw for a team-record 4,689 yards that year as three different players surpassed the 80-catch plateau, while Charlie Garner rushed for 968 yards, averaged 5.3 yards per rush attempt and finished fourth in the AFC with 1,903 total yards from scrimmage. In Trestman’s first season with Arizona, quarterback Jake Plummer passed for 3,737 yards, running back Adrian Murrell rushed for 1,042 yards and wide receiver Frank Sanders caught 89 passes for 1,145 yards as the Cards went on to win their first playoff game since 1947. In Trestman’s lone year with the Lions, quarterback Scott Mitchell tossed for 3,484 yards, the second-highest figure in that franchise’s history. In 1995, the 49ers’ offense led the NFL in scoring and passing, and ranked second in total offense under Trestman’s tutelage. In his two years in San Francisco, four different offensive players made a total of six Pro Bowl appearances, including quarterback Steve Young on both occasions. Wide receiver Jerry Rice set an NFL record in ’95 with 1,848 receiving yards on 122 receptions. In fact, in Rice’s two seasons under Trestman, he totaled 230 catches for 3,102 yards and 23 touchdowns. The 49ers put together 25 wins in those two seasons and made the playoffs both times. As quarterbacks coach with the Vikings from 1990-91, Trestman first tutored Gannon in his first two seasons as an NFL starter, as he combined for 28 touchdown passes and 22 interceptions over those two years. As quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator with the Browns, Trestman worked with quarterback Bernie Kosar and wide receiver Webster Slaughter, who led the NFL in 1989 with a 19.0-yard average per reception as he was selected to the only Pro Bowl of his career. Cleveland qualified for the playoffs both years in which Trestman was there, including 1989 when they advanced to the AFC Championship Game.

 

Trestman began his coaching career in 1981 as a volunteer assistant at the University of Miami while attending law school. In 1983, he was named the Hurricanes’ quarterbacks coach, a position in which he served the next two years. He was part of the staff that led the school to a national championship in 1983. While at Miami, Trestman worked with quarterbacks Jim Kelly, Bernie Kosar and Vinny Testaverde, each of whom went on to play in the NFL, while he recruited a fourth to Coral Gables in Steve Walsh, who would later lead the Hurricanes to their second national championship.

 

Wow. What a hire this guy would be. I would assume he would be hired as the QB coach and Norvell would move to recievers?

 

To me, this hire makes the most sense as the Dolphins are currently in the process of turning over the regime to Saban and Trestman will most likely be in serach for a job. Also, the Dolphins, as we all know, are NO WHERE near the playoffs, so he could be hired as soon as the season ends this week. Just as obvious are his ties to Callahan and the WCO system.

 

Proven coach with a great track record. Sounds like the guy we need to develop Harrison and Taylor and further progress Dailey and Adams.

Great stuff Nebr. Bob. From an fans perspective, based on this info. I agree that this would appear to be a great hire for NU. The guy's track record speaks for itself.
