fanblogs Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Look at departing flights. Remember that Gill postponed his end-of-year press conference because he's still out of town; so it would make sense that he went back to Florida to resume recruiting. I guess all of this is pointless since we know for certain that Gill is getting interviewed. The only question is whether it has already happen yet. The Gill interview happened Monday. http://www.fanblogs.com/nebraska/007342.php Quote Link to comment

husker_hurdler Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 Well it didn't happen today, but who knows it might tomorrow. If it doesn't I was wrong, and then on thursday when I go back to the weight room I will chat with Brian. Quote Link to comment
Bleeding Husker Red Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 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. http://www.kolnkgin.com/sports/headlines/11837581.html According to this link it sounds like Grobe is definitely out. Bummer. Doesn't surprise me Quote Link to comment
HUSKER 37 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Here's the bottom line. If GILL is named coach, we will be fine. He has great leadership qualities and the players will definitely rally behind him. However; he will need a wiz at OC and DC. If he has the right assistants, Gill may well lead us back to dominance. Gill is the steady-hand, the rock. If PELINI is named coach, we will be fine. The defense will almost assuredly be back on track to dominance, and we will need a wiz at OC. He has shown a tendancy to be a bit emotionally volatile at times, but I still think the his emotionally charged coaching may be great, especially for our defense.. but there is a chance that it will blow up. Pelini is more risky IMO. Either coach would be fine with me, they both have their strengths and their weaknesses. I think that Pelini would be the more risky hire, but we certainly wouldn't be giving up 40+ or 60+ or 70+ to anyone ever again. Gill is more of a steadying influence like TO was, and with the right assistants could lead us back to prominance. So anti-Gill people and anti-Pelini people. Please, step back take a bit of an objective look, and you have to see the strengths and weaknesses of both candidates. The main concern here is going to be getting the right assistants in place. Thank you for putting so eloquently what I was fixin' to say! http://www.ubathletics.buffalo.edu/footbal...2005-gill.shtml During the height of Nebraska football in the 1990s, with Gill serving as quarterbacks coach, the Cornhuskers had unprecedented success at both the quarterback position and as a team. Gill, rated one of the top ten recruiters in the nation in 2000 and 2001 by ESPN.com, played a vital role in Nebraska's three national titles, and mentored a string of record-breaking quarterbacks, from Tommie Frazier to Jamaal Lord to 2001 Heisman Trophy winner Eric Crouch.

HUSKER 37 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Turner didn't just graduate from NE. He was a coach here. He was quarterbacks coach, then either oc or assistant head coach. Now head coach at Buffalo for two years. He knows NE tradition and what we expect. Who would his DC be though? Maybe some of his existing staff: http://www.ubathletics.buffalo.edu/football/coaches/ Coaching Staff Head Coach Turner Gill Asst. Head Coach/ Quarterbacks Danny Barrett Defensive Coordinator/Linebackers Jimmy Williams Offensive Line Allen Mogridge Defensive Ends Coach Brian Mohnsen Tight Ends Coach/Special Teams Coordinator Aaron Stamn Running Backs Lee Chambers Wide Receivers Coach Juan Taylor Defensive Backs Coach/Recruiting Coordinator Matt House Defensive Tackles Coach Toby Williams Strength & Conditioning Coach Ryan Groneman Asst. Strength & Conditioning Coach Paul Childress Anyone remember Jimmy and Toby? Quote Link to comment
BenchWarmer Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Sheesh. I'm another who could get behind either Bo or Turner. Like everyone else here - I have no real basis for my opinions but for some reson I think bo would pick up on being a HC at this level faster. Could be wrong. Either way...I think they're both acceptable candidates with potential. Quote Link to comment
