The Search is Over!

[husker_hurdler]

I got word this morning (7:40 am) that the coaching search is over, and that an annoucement is thought to be in the next day or two. Since I hate unnamed sources, this came from inside the weigtroom from a Brian (pull out your media guide to figure it out). On a side note, not a one asst. coach showed up today, although several were there yesterday.

If you're going to give us "Brian from the Weight Room" why not just give us his last name, too? What's that? It's like saying, "I'm not going to tell you what direction they drove off in, but if you face North it's to your right."

 

People think they're being clever, but all they're doing is mucking up their posts.

My Source confirms this and trumps it with a name. Turner Gill.

 

I dont like it, but Ill support it.

At least add a little substance to the rumor like...Gill's normal Tuesday PC was rumored to be postponed until Wednesday -- then it was postponed indefinitely.

"Postponed indefinitely" seems somewhat significant. Of course, it could very easily mean nothing at all.

 

I would like to have something in place today or tomorrow, just so we can get moving forward again. Above all else, I don't want a repeat of 2004.

Gee, where is I Bleed Red with info from his source that we can "Bank". LOL. I have a source too. I ask my dog what he thinks and if he farts it means Turner Gill. Unfortunately it has smelled a lot around here.

the postposed I agree on the postponed indefinately comment too...

I WILL NOT be happy if it's Turner Gill!

Why? He'll do fine.

Because T.O.'s last homeboy hook-up didn't exactly go swimmingly.

According to this link it sounds like Grobe is definitely out. Bummer.

If this home-boy gets to pick his own assistants, and has a commitment to recruiting (which it seems he will), things will be ok.

I have to wonder about Gill. Granted, I've not seen a lot about him with regards to a head coach, but I know that Nebraska is an entirely different animal than Buffalo. Seems to me that with this much riding on the line, it might be more prudent to go with someone with more "winter fat" and experience under them? TO was in Gill's wedding. I know that Tom is looking for the best long-term interests of the program, but could he be mildly blinded by his friendship? Who knows, maybe I'm completely on an island here.

Based on what? His record at Buffalo? Listen I am not saying Gill is a bad guy at all....He's a great guy but I just don't think he will get the job done here. What are we basing Gill's success on? The power conference known as the MAC??!! Just my opinion.
