hskerholic Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Ha! OWH running a poll on should Banker have been fired. Currently running at 94.2% yes. Which I guess shows there's 5.8% of fans that refuse to blame the coaches for anything. It was Banker Voting No over and over. 1 Quote Link to comment
NM11046 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Is someone keeping a tally of all the names mentioned for the new DC? Some of the names being mentioned are hysterical. Sooooo many hard ons for former Huskers who have no/little actual coaching experience. Seems nuts since we've spent 2-3 years hearing these same people complain about how important experience and success are. Quote Link to comment
Husker Psycho Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 We have to figure out which Defensive coach... Is willing to take a coaching job with a head coach who is himself on the hot seat. Whoever takes the job might be here only one year. Who would be interested in a job like that ? Certainly not someone who sees doom and gloom in the scenario. It's an excellent opportunity for an eager and talented coach to bring a stellar program back to it's hey day. I think people will be clamoring for the job. Especially if NU is willing to pay in the $1M range. A lot of coaches would love to have a 2-year, $1M a year contract (NU could even go to 3 years for a top guy). Maybe so. Oregon... hired a new Defensive Coordinator last year. Oregon's new defensive coordinator didn't "bring a stellar program back to it's hey day"... so he was only there one year before being fired along with the rest of the staff. Let the "clamoring" begin ! Quote Link to comment

BIGREDIOWAN Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 If they're a former player either from here or the NFL with zero coaching experience that's a a huge NO! Just because someone played here or played in the NFL doesn't mean they know a damn thing about coaching. It needs to be someone with experience in a P5 program as a DC. I still can't believe some folks are mentioning Bo Pelini in threads. There is ZERO way that guy is ever stepping foot on the field as a Nebraska coach for us ever again. Quote Link to comment

I wouldn't say he needs P5 DC experience. I would be fine with someone who maybe was in a successful P5 program as a position coach and now is tearing it up at a smaller program as DC.

ColoradoHusk Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Great players rarely become great coaches. They were mainly great players because of their amazing athletic ability. It's a little hard to tell a guy "Go run a 4.3 40 and jump 40 inches in the air like I used to." Quote Link to comment

BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Initially I wonder how much was post Pelini protest and how much was Banker rubbing the players the wrong way like coarse sand paper. I believe along with others that the four DLine that left early tanked that season. Yet McMullen who was a high Character guy said "F--- that guy" in regards to Banker. Plus Banker and Gerry supposedly clashed. Time to bring in someone to restore the player/coach chemistry. Quote Link to comment
