irieboy8 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Samuel McKewon @swmckewonOWH 1m1 minute ago FYI... RT @YahooForde: Y Sources: Colorado State coach Jim McElwain emerging as a leading candidate at Florida. http://yhoo.it/1FH05e2 Other sources have said Florida has vetted him but is NOT their top choice, but simply on their list. I really think the reason that SE ended this now instead of after the bowl game is the fact that Florida and likely Michigan will also be going after the same top names. I think Bo and Muschamp are prime examples that great college assistants don't make great head coaches at a big-time program. They really need to learn and prove themselves as a HC at a smaller school first. thats why I'm not too down with scott frost...... Quote Link to comment
Warrior10 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I am predicting the person hired to be the next Nebraska head coach played at a community school to star this college career. Gary Patterson isn't leaving TCU Dodge City CC. Quote Link to comment
nowhereman Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Left-field suggestion since he's at his home school, but what about Bryan Harsin? Longtime offensive coach at Boise State under Hawkins and Petersen, OC at Texas for a couple seasons, took over Arkie State and led them to a bowl, and seems to be keeping Boise on track in his first year as HC taking over for Petersen. His salary is $1 million and buyout is $2 mil. Like I said, though, I don't really see him chasing the money to leave Boise. Plus friends in Boise would never talk to me again if we hired him away.

alexhortdog95 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I don't think that he understood what he tweeted. It supports getting rid of Bo, in a way, LOL Former Nebraska player DeJon Gomes: “Since they wanna fire Bo, ima be one of those unrealistic fans who wants to be playing for a national championship every year.” Ask Bama/Oregon/LSU/Buckeye/USC fans what their unrealistic goals are every year....

iamanewby Posted December 1, 2014 Author Share Posted December 1, 2014 Florida is in negotiations with Jim Mora Jr. to be their next head coach. Quote Link to comment
TheSker Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Patterson and Kill both came up the coaching ranks under Dennis Franchione in Kansas. They have similar styles and philosophies. Quote Link to comment

alexhortdog95 Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Here's the thing....just had this thought.... For people to think that this is SOLELY about wins and losses...you are mistaken. But we don't know what guidelines and standards were set to Bo when Eichorst got on the job. Obviously. Quote Link to comment

But we don't know what guidelines and standards were set to Bo when Eichorst got on the job. Obviously. It pretty much is though. Bo had a great program in every other regard, except for his outbursts. Quote Link to comment
VectorVictor Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 Regarding Tressel: IF Nebraska were to hire him, I can almost guarantee that Perlman, Eichorst, and Tressel could convince the NCAA to reduce the restrictions placed on him (not able to coach the first 5 games and not coaching in bowl). If they hire Tressel before this year's bowl game and he doesn't coach...then that counts against the restrictions, yes? Quote Link to comment

Furthermore, if Scott Frost did happen to be the OC and coach-in-waiting, couldn't he coach the cupcake games for us--or were there further stipulations? Quote Link to comment
