Redux Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Paul Johnson has 2 wins this year. Mark Richt can't win big with freaking Georgia. Scott Frost isn't a head coach. Jim Tressel probably has 0 interest. Why do we have to go through this nonsense every week? Quote Link to comment
Redux Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 We're overlooking an obvious coach with big school head coaching experience and Husker ties... Lane Kiffin GTFO right now Quote Link to comment
CheeseHusker Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 A name. Failing that, maybe an up and comer from a mid-major or Div. II who preaches strong, clean fundamentals. Quote Link to comment
SECHusker Posted October 25, 2015 Author Share Posted October 25, 2015 No way is Eichorst going to admit he made the wrong hire; he's already shown that. Riley will be here for the entirety of his contract, I have no doubt. And for the record, do we really want Eichorst making another coaching hire? I sure don't. He needs to be gone, and let the new AD (who will be attempting to impress and earn the support of the fan base) make the splash hire we desperately need. Eichorst needs to be let go this year. He v messed up with his pick at Miami, now he has jacked us up Quote Link to comment

GOAT Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Keep Riley for at least two more years and fire Langsdorf, Banker, Read, and Stewart. Bring in an OC with a power mindset and adapts to player abilities rather than force an obvious scrambler to try and be a pocket passer. Don't care what we do for DC as long as he gets the job done and can recruit. Unfortunately, that's not going to happen. Langsdorf is one of the primary reasons why POB committed to Nebraska. So you wouldn't fire an inept cordinator for one recruit? Makes sense. I'm sure he could either secure POB/find another QB or two. Which I think we need anyway. POB is considered the "crown jewel" of this class, and he is the "chosen one" who will either make or break Riley's career here at Nebraska. If he does well, then Riley will say, "See, I told you I just needed my own QB" and if he doesn't, it'll be more of "Riley is a .500 coach no matter what." Either way, Riley's not gonna risk losing him. Quote Link to comment
GOAT Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Paul Johnson has 2 wins this year. Mark Richt can't win big with freaking Georgia. Scott Frost isn't a head coach. Jim Tressel probably has 0 interest. Why do we have to go through this nonsense every week? You make it sound like winning in the SEC is so easy. They guy has won multiple SEC titles, for God's sake. You try playing LSU and Bama and Auburn and A&M and Ole Miss and Miss State and Tennessee and Arkansas and the rest of that slate week-in, week-out. There are no pushovers in the SEC with the exception of Kentucky and Vanderbilt. It's not easy to win the conference, no matter how much talent you have, because the talent levels are all very similar in the SEC. I don't know why that's so hard for you to see. As far as Tressel goes, how do you know he "probably has 0 interest"? Have you spoken to him personally? Throw $5-mil at him and make him say no. Quote Link to comment

Whs from cb Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 NUMBERS DON'T LIE Nebraska is a program that for the past 7 straight season produced teams with at least 9 wins. If Mike Riley & his staff cannot manage to produce at least 6 wins with pretty much the same talent from last season, then there is no choice... ...Nebraska MUST, Nebraska SHOULD for the betterment of the entire program, cut their losses at the end of the season, clean house, and bring in a coach that will bring back POWER FOOTBALL and a commitment to the running game. Duke, I think you should consider changing your screen name to 'The CONSCIENCE'. Your posts are consistently right on the money and have been throughout (at least) this football season. There is no, and I mean absolutely NO reason to continue this little experiment any longer. Heads need to roll. The house needs to be cleaned. Things have gotten very, very ugly. This hire was a spectacular botch on so many levels. We have completely abandoned the concepts which made Husker football HUSKER FOOTBALL. There is nothing special or unique about our football team anymore, other than the passion and continued support of our fanbase filling up that stadium for every home game. Well, this fanbase has been absolutely taken, deceived, and ripped off. Wake up people. We are witnessing the destruction of Husker football happening before our very eyes. I remember everyone thinking a monkey could take us to 9 wins. I wanted Bo gone as bad as anyone, I think he was a cancer, I think he had hit his ceiling, had a God complex, and a horribly ugly demeanor and attitude. Yet we traded him in for a career .500 coach in a completely reactionary move, who runs a system completely antithetical to Husker football, which is very similar to a system which has failed here before, who has shown he does not have the ability to adapt, and who seems to have extreme loyalty to his staff, a flaw which Bo was rightly criticized for. We have an administration and athletic department who are killing, absolutely KILLING Husker football. The longer we allow this to happen, the worse it is going to get. Something needs to be done immediately. I agree 100%. The head of the university is killing this program. Have you ever seen a football coach change what they think? Ego is too big for this to happen. So we go out and hire th head coach in less than a week. I would think this would have been a hire that would have had a national search. Only reason for this was the chancellor did not want to deal with it. Academics vs Athletics Quote Link to comment

If he is so damned good, why aren't they even winning the effin division yearly? Or even more than once really? He is an average coach, accept it. Tressel doesn't want this. Quote Link to comment
