Amac3309 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Ought to look at Jim McElwain. Nick Sabin disciple. Doing a good job with limited resources. Would implement a power running scheme. Seen his name a lot on here, he has a buyout of $7.5M, think we would spring for that? Quote Link to comment
AR Husker Fan Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 When Dr.Tom was AD, I would have said no way. Now? Yes. Administration has to ensure there is no fall off in revenue; I think they would look at it as a case of spending money to make money. Quote Link to comment
Hedley Lamarr Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Hudspeth is a 1 mil buyout Quote Link to comment
admo Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 Ought to look at Jim McElwain. Nick Sabin disciple. Doing a good job with limited resources. Would implement a power running scheme. Didn't know who he is so I looked him up. Nice recommendation. I wish I saw a few games of his, but his pedigree so far makes him a great candidate. Possibly the best. Quote Link to comment

Roger Dorn Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 I like Cam Cameron a lot too. Great at developing QB's. Quote Link to comment

Â I was questioning this, didn't know if SE is willing to throw around that kind of money. But, some of the big money folk in lincoln might toss in a few bucks for his hire. Quote Link to comment
o-line54 Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 A guy who I think could do a very good job and I have not heard much mention is Justin Fuente. He is the head coach at the University of Memphis. Memphis has been an embarrassment of a football program for years, with the exception of a couple of bowl teams while NFL running back Deangelo Williams was there. In just 3 years Fuente has the Tigers going to a bowl game again with a record of 8-3 and a solid shot to win the American Athletic Conference with a record of 6-1 currently. Â The tigers had 450 yards of offense and lost by just a touchdown when they played at UCLA. Only other losses come to Ole Miss and a last second lost to Houston. Â He was the running backs coach at TCU, then promoted to Co-Offensive Coordinator and QB coach from 2009-2011 before coming to Memphis. He has put in the time and is 38 years old and brought a lot of energy to a bad program and a basketball centered school. I think he could do some great things at a school like Nebraska with a great fan base and big time resources. Food for thought. Quote Link to comment
Xmas32 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Steve Addazio Love this guy but would think he's the front runner for the UF job. Quote Link to comment
Nebhawk Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 My list of good solid real candidates: Â Gary Patterson- similiar to Pelini, but adapted to the game on offense this season. This is who Pelini should talk too. Mark Stoops (UK)- Taken a bad UK team and got some wins in a mega tough conference. 2nd choice. Jim Mora JR- Could leave UCLA for a job with the history of NU. Jim Tressel- Had Ohio St a contender year in and year out. This is my first option. Paul Johnson ( Ga Tech)- I like his style of offense. Traditional triple option, mixed with some big plays. Recuits well to a mediocre football school. Took Navy to a bowl game with Naval recruits. Will play FSU for ACC titile in a couple of weeks. Quote Link to comment
Nebhawk Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 The right coach is there, but finding that guy won't be easy, ASK OKLAHOMA. Now Stoops is fading somewhat as well, but at least he still is n't losing game by 40 on to many occasions. Quote Link to comment
NUpolo8 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Have not heard Pat Hill in a while. Love that guy. Firey, but under control, can recruit to a garbage spot like Fresno, Made some good QB's for sure. He was my choice when we took Bo. Is even coaching now. I know Fresno was his dream job, stated many times had no interest in leaving. Let's not insult garbage by comparing it to Fresno. 1 Quote Link to comment
skersfan Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Speaking of Fresno, my other half (you know the evil Pelini hater of all time) said to tell your other hey!!! She enjoyed meeting both of you! Â Anyone know what Pat Hill is doing? Quote Link to comment
gratefullred Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Pat Hill coached OL for the Falcons 2012 and 2013. He is 63 and out of a job. I would not consider him a candidate. Quote Link to comment
