Wow! smh...but make sure we get Coach Read here, right? Let's throw some money at Brennan.

Maybe someone else is throwing money at him to go elsewhere.

Corvallis or Lincoln? Yeah, I see your point.

WTF? How do you know he is set to ultimately stay in Corvallis? He is from California. Maybe he is waiting to see if something happens that direction. Maybe his family doesn't want to move to the Midwest. maybe he is going to try to become the OC or HC at OSU. C'mon.

You are exactly right. It's mind-boggling how unrealistic some of our fans are right now. They honestly feel that NU can get whoever we want on our coaching staff. That's now how things work. Look at Riley...he turned down a good USC program on multiple occasions, and it was a personal decision. If Brennan doesn't want to come here, that's his decision.

This is the time to upgrade the staff. It is not unrealistic to expect Coach Riley to look for his best options, particularly if one was already on his staff.

 

How do you know he didn't try and Brennan simply doesn't want to move? If he's tweeting that he's got kids in jr high sports, maybe he's decided now is not the time. I have kids now that would not want to relocate, but 5 years ago we might have for our jobs.

It now sounds like Brennan is N. Anyone else hearing the same?

I'd like to keep our WR coach if Brennan isn't coming.

I am starting to think that you just don't get it.

I still can't cipher this out. Sounds like a Beaver man.

[BigRedPowerWagon]

Cant really knock any guy who likes the beaver. But the #gobeavs thing, i think hes OUT not

[default_28]

Do you think he might be waiting to interview for the Oregon State job before he decides if he's coming to Lincoln or not? He seems to be a bit of a coach on the rise and they know him, so maybe they asked him to interview for the job.

No, I get that not every coach wants to be here (there are job offers that I have had that, based on location, I have not accepted).

 

Still, what I saw was a staff that earned 9-10 wins per season and 3 appearances in a CCG out of 7 seasons (with a divisional T-1st another year). Now, if that was not good enough for most of HuskerNation (including myself, though I remained supportive throughout Bo's tenure), why are we now willing to settle at the start of a new HC tenure? If anything, this is the time that we set the bar as high as we expect it to be. #Entitled #IFinallyGotToUsThatHashTag

 

Brennan is Riley's guy. Who else should we expect him to be able to convince to come?

1. Sometimes it's not about the money.

2. He has a young family and maybe doesn't want to uproot if he doesn't have to.

3. He has only lived, played, and coached in the PAC12 footprint. Perhaps he wants to stay there.

4. Could it be he isn't coming here because he has been looking for or offered a job in said footprint?

5. Maybe he doesn't like the fact that Riley left and doesn't want to follow him.

 

I could go on and on. Sometimes it's not the HC fault for not getting the guy he wants to be on the staff. Sometimes it's the other coach.

Long term nothing has changed in the expectations that caused Bo to be fired. Like you, I supported Bo all throughout his tenure here up until the Wisconsin game this year. HOWEVER, anytime there is a major change at the top, there can be an adjustment period. Now, they might come out next year and light it up and win the CCG. OR....it might take a year or two to get things rolling with the new staff and improve from there.

 

This is all why I hate coaching changes and support allowing a HC to adjust and make changes on the job to do better over a longer period of time. You have to have continuity in the program and get momentum in both recruiting and coaching on the field.

 

The Bo supporters that didn't want the change and that are now claiming if MR doesn't win 9-10 games in his first season or he gets fired is just looking silly.

Why? I'm all for the hire, but I think any less than 9 wins next year would be a failure by our new staff. There is more than enough talent on our current roster to compete in and WIN every game that we play. Why would we fire a 9-10 win guy and be OK with going 8-4 or 7-5 next season? That doesn't make sense to me.

It would obviously be a failure as a season. As a fan and everyone involved with the program, we don't want to see an 8-4 or 7-5 season. But, that is not an indication that the coaching staff is a failure long term.

 

What else is going on in the program? Were the losses close losses against top rated teams? Is there momentum building in recruiting? Were a couple of the losses early in the year when the players are getting used to the new staff and systems? After those losses, did the team improve and build momentum as the season went on?

 

You see, a record is only a number. Yes, it's an important number. But, it doesn't come anywhere close to telling the story of what is actually happening in the program with a new staff.

Because he is a new coach establishing New schemes etc. What's the difference between 7 8 or 9? None of those win totals got us a conference championship. What everyone is saying is 9 doesn't mean sh#t
