huKSer Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 The way I read this is they will try to get the big splash coach to put butts in the seats & energize the fan base. A guy that will be able to recruit nationally. So that means it's going to be a big name or a very hot commodity that is well known nationally with a lot of recruiting ties. I think that narrows this list down a bit. If they can get the candidate to visit Lincoln then I think we have a good shot. http://my.journalsta...votal_hire.html Bobby Knight has been to Lincoln Quote Link to comment
HANC Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 I will go out on a "short limb" and stick with the so-called "rumor" I posted about a month ago when TO was at the creighton-Wichita St. game. After the game, a person somewhat close to the program said it was "rumored" that TO was there to check out Marshall and the Shockers. I posted this earlier....and I stick with it ... Greg Marshall = Next Nebraska Basketball Coach Quote Link to comment

huskered17 Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 If it was Ben Howard, would he have it in his contract that his bowl of Skittels on his desk cannot have any green ones in it. I'm sorry, I think people like that are pompus arse holes. GBR!!! Quote Link to comment
COMPTON Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Go after Josh Pastner of Memphis until he can't say no. Quote Link to comment
Omaha-Husker Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Go after Josh Pastner of Memphis until he can't say no. Memphis is moving to the Big East, Memphis is a vastly better HC job than Nebraska is. Quote Link to comment
flatwaterfan Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Watched the Ohio game tonight they won a close won. Groce strikes me as more of a Collier-type coach. Lets them play during the game, does his coaching in practice. The key of course is recruiting. I am leaning Marshall. Pastner would be a great recruiter. Quote Link to comment

Minnesota_husker Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 how about Pat Knight of Lamar. T_O_B No.. Knight is not even close to as good as his daddy and not sure if you say this froma few weeks ago....... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GmCidM-vQs Cant stand a coach who throws his players under a bus like this...

gobiggergoredder Posted March 11, 2012 Share Posted March 11, 2012 Dana Altman is *not* a big name hire. And try getting NU fans excited about a guy that coached at Creighton, no matter where he came from in Nebraska. I don't think Altman is the guy, but I'm pretty sure there is a former Creighton coach now leading a team at Nebraska that is doing pretty well. Quote Link to comment

I don't know if Altman is the guy either (although he and T.O. are friends so I'd guess there will at least be some conversation)...........but you'd have to love the angst among the Bluejays if they became our feeder system for coaches..............

Well they haven't lost a game since this press conference, so they must have taken him seriously. And they are dancin' in Lamar. I actually liked what he did. If they are not taking it seriously and getting in trouble off the court, why shouldn't they be called out? 1 Quote Link to comment

But surely you'd agree that the rivalry would ratchet up with that hire........right? Quote Link to comment
