secretasianman Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Any information on why Randy Jordan wasn't retained? And who will coach the RBs? Quote Link to comment
Danimal Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Bo's d-hires after Marvin have much to prove. A strength-coach, a grad-assistant, and his brother? I can't say I'm wowed by this. I expected Carl but at-least Carl has been a 1A-coach, the other two? Ya maybe they'll be money, I certainly hope they are, but I'm not excited. From what I've heard, Eckler was pretty much Pelini's right-hand man. Was involved a lot in developing game plans for the defense. So... take it FWIW... So Eckler was a football-coach that got snuck in under-the-pretenses of a strength-coach? That works I guess. But I can't say I'm without reservations. When we promoted Albin from GA he'd already been HC of a NAIA national champ. He not only had Solich's seal-of-approval he had credentials. This is the first "real" coaching job for a couple of guys, Bo obviously has faith in them but I'm still a bit nervous. Quote Link to comment
husker rob Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 Any information on why Randy Jordan wasn't retained? And who will coach the RBs? i have been reading that it is Possible that former NU player and now a coach at Southern Miss, Mike Grant could be the running back coach the only thing that we know for sure right now is that Ron Brown and Barny Cotton have been hired. on Huskers.com, they only have Bo Pelini's name on there as the HC, and no other names as assistants Quote Link to comment
RedDenver Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 I have also heard Scott Frost mentioned as a possible RB coach. Quote Link to comment
husker rob Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 Bo Pelini and Mike Eckler were out in CA today to see Simi Kuli, so i guess that Mike Eckler has been hired but not sure what his title is going to be Might be the new LB coach Quote Link to comment

To bad i didnt keep in touch with them or i might have some free tickets! LOL Quote Link to comment
husker rob Posted December 6, 2007 Author Share Posted December 6, 2007 must be some crazy visits going on right now, because Bo has visited with Cameron Meredith and Ted Gilmore was with him. the article that i read said the Gilmore was the wide recievers coach and Recruiting Coordinator Quote Link to comment

Dundermifflinite Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Hope not. Do you have any scoop on him? Is it the running back rotation, i.e. Brandon Jackson? Marlon Lucky's development? Just curious....I know I've heard he's a good recruiter, but haven't heard much about his coaching ability... Quote Link to comment
Deafy1289 Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 Hopefully we will know the full staff soon. Quote Link to comment
