bruzer1053 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I enjoy a little humor as much as anyone else, but really? Enough of our players already know how to play the guitar Quote Link to comment
Danimal Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I like the idea of Riley calling the offense.......I'd rather have the coach responsible for what's going on than just standing around. He has a ton of experience, let's see what he's got. He isn't just standing around, he's running the team/game. Most HC's were successful coordinators at one time, and most still delegate the duties. It's damn hard to do both jobs well. Hell we just saw that with Bo. I'd have been fine with keeping him as long as he brought in a quality DC. I'd much rather just go out and get the best OC we can no matter of prior relationship or lack thereof. We have the budget, let's freaking use it. There is no need for Riley to wear two hats here. TO did ok at head coach and calling the game. I think it gives them the feel for game TO is also one of the best coaches in history, in terms of X's and O's I'd put him up against anybody. Of course some do a fine job as their own coordinator but most are better-off delegating, especially when they have the budget we have to go hire somebody damn good. Quote Link to comment

I'm not saying not to hire a OC just I don't mind if he called the plays Quote Link to comment
HuskermanMike Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Doug Nussmeier is available if we want a splash hire as a 2nd or 3rd option behind whoever Riley wants... Quote Link to comment
