***Official Head Coaching Search Discussion***

[jschmidt]

would really like to see Mullen or McElwain.

 

Frost should get a serious look

 

I have seen a number of people make "CEO" comments... maybe out of left field, but what about Tony Dungy?

[MasterPulverizer]

Credible insider from another board confirmed that Tressel is all but hired. The plan is for Frost to be OC and head coach in waiting. So the rumors may orove to be correct.

How credible is this source? Don't dangle that carrot, ya feel me?

Tressel + Frost combo is not the #1 choice. There is a lot of interest there to make it happen though. I'm not going to elaborate on it any further since there is a very big key part that needs to agree to it to make that combo work.

please, do everything you can to protect your sources and secure the deal. you know as well as anyone that information is power. be careful with it.

I don't understand why people are linking Tressel to anyone else. If (big if) we hire him, he will surely decide his own crew. There is no way he would just accept an OC that wasn't his choice, and I have no idea why Scott Frost would be on his short list since he doesn't even know the guy.

 

If we hire a big name coach like Tressel, I guarantee that they will have their pick of coaches and coordinators. Otherwise we'd be tying their hands.

[Bigred_inSD]

I just hope something is announced this week. If it is Tressel I don't see us losing many recruits, or losing Brown kaz or Warren. . Hell I bet Tressel gives us a good shot at landing sheriron Jones too.

Interesting on some Vegas sites the prop bet for the next head coach at Nebraska has been taken down. Announcement coming soon?

Got to love all the speculations and rumors.

Nebraska has money, but there's no way it's spending 7.5 million on Bo's buyout, then another 7.5 for McElwains before any salary is talked about.

 

And he's going to Gainesville.

[Taylor21]

It has been take off the Vegas boards.. Is that a good sign that maybe some info that is creditable has been leaked, Vegas is usually very quick to pull anything off the boards if some Info they think is worthy has leaked.

^ actually if Bo takes another job we can reduce the amount of his new salary from the buyout, NU will only have to pay the difference. per Sean Callahan after the presser yesterday.

freese was offered Florida job I heard.

[QMany]

I don't think anyone would be paying full sticker price for a buyout from Colorado State.

[sd'sker]

have we considered this guy? he gets it and is just a natural winner.
