Benhart would be driving guys back instead of being put on his back. Wouldn't that be something? On yeah, a new coach would magically make Benhart a better run blocker... he's a huge reason our run game sucks now. The offense itself would be fine, just had a laugh at the Benhart comment. 1 Quote Link to comment

I can support a Husker trying to right the ship and the struggles to do so. BUT, We have gotten worse every time we switch coaches since Osborne. Honestly, if we bring in a new guy, I probably won't even bother learning his, but definitely not his assistant's names. Won't matter when they are shown the door in 3 years anyway. Just not worth investing the time or energy in a doomed regime. Sadly, we are looking at the worst regime in the history of NU football. Frost wins the next 3, I'll be the first to say I was wrong.....Frost just goes 50/50 in those 1 score games and we are looking at 3 more wins per year...That's huge. But he didn't. And I am unsure at this point if he can. The comments by Beckton were telling about guys giving 1 more inch. Missing 5/6 plays per game and being "this close". And in year 4? Still "this close"....Every year, just :this close". That to me is coaching, scheme, development and culture. Im comfortable in saying the next coach won't be worse..... Quote Link to comment

How many years has he been here? Who has been the OL coach all those years? Why is he still here? That's a CEO decision....Same with Verduzco.....Held....... Quote Link to comment

You were probably as confident as everyone else who said all a coach had to do was show up to win 9 games at Nebraska, when Solich/Pelini and then Pelini were let go too. Quote Link to comment

Benhart just ain't ready yet, sucks he's the best we got at that spot. Quote Link to comment

Not me. I wanted to keep them both. Solich deserved more time after firing his staff. Bo losing Carl and Sanders hurt. But I liked them both. 2 Quote Link to comment

The offense itself would be fine, just had a laugh at the Benhart comment. Watch some old Georgia Tech or service academy games, how their offensive lines block. It's an ENTIRELY different scheme and philosophy. So yes, I absolutely believe Benhart would be a monster firing off the line for Monken or Calhoun. There is no outside zone patty-cake. It's in your face, helmets trading paint, pads cracking awesomeness. Quote Link to comment

I just see Austin as another guy that needs to move on. 1 Quote Link to comment

Sarkisian was 24-21 in conference games at Washington and 7-5 in conference games at USC. I am not sure why Texas thought he would suddenly start winning more games when he got to Austin. 1 Quote Link to comment

The reason he went to Seattle and has stayed there is because his son is continuously at Children Hospital and he has seen the same doctor for years. If I'm not mistaken his son is in his 20s now Quote Link to comment
