BigRedBuster Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I expect this to be announced sometime in the next 7 days. That will give the new coach about a week acclimate himself to this coaching staff and the players before spring ball starts. It will go fast. Quote Link to comment

Plus, if it's no surprise Warren left, the staff has to have known about this and gotten a head start. I read somewhere that this whole thing went down within the week so Riley was probably already going down his list calling those who might have interest. Regardless of how you feel about Warren leaving, he did help us with this recruiting class a lot and helped the coaching staff get their feet wet and get in the door. He helped them learn about what the team did with the old staff and where they needed to add talent. So you have to give him credit for helping with the transition and helping the new staff get going. I think just having him here an additional couple of months was priceless and worth it.

Dagerow Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 I don't think Riley will hire a NU guy that he has never worked with or met. He will go to someone he trusts or someone who comes highly recommended from someone he trusts. This has been his pattern so far... Don't let logic or the truth come into this thread. My "lock" is Ronnie Lott. Either that or Scott Frost. Quote Link to comment
C N Red Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Mike Minter would be unbelievable but I don't think he's going to give up being a HC to move up as a position coach. I think he will try to move up as a HC if at all possible and he is still a HC now so don't think it will happen at this time. If he ever gets "let go" by his school I could see him taking a position coaching job at a FPS school then. Quote Link to comment
sho Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Kenny Wilhite. http://www.huskers.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=100&ATCLID=209491633 Quote Link to comment
sho Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Kenny would be an easy transition, already familiar with the staff and players. Then replace him in the AD's office/recruiting staff. Quote Link to comment

With his resume as a player that would be great, but coaching is just beginning for him. Quote Link to comment
ADS Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 No offense to Kenny Wilhite but I'd rather that Riley bring in a guy that has coached at the D-1 level before. Quote Link to comment
Mavric Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 FABIAN WASHINGTON @FABEWASH31 11m11 minutes ago Here's another idea hire Daniel Bullocks, he already the DB coach at Eastern Michigan. How about stealing him ... http://tmi.me/1eYUGW Quote Link to comment
SouthLincoln Husker Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 No offense to Kenny Wilhite but I'd rather that Riley bring in a guy that has coached at the D-1 level before. Then they leave right away. I like the ties to Husker football and he has coaching experience. Hire Kenny! Quote Link to comment

Moiraine Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 Scott Frost, Mike Brown, Ralph Brown, Marvin Sanders, DeJuan Groce, Fabian Washington, Keyou Craver, Tony Veland just to name a few. lol Quote Link to comment
zoogs Posted February 13, 2015 Share Posted February 13, 2015 How bad is this timing? Riley may have a lot of people he could potentially call up. But at this time of year, how many of them have already reaffirmed their commitment to their current jobs? Not exactly very active coach hiring season. All of that has by and large concluded, no?

I thought that mattered. Apparently not. Quote Link to comment
