I haven't ck that out but my guess is an experienced one based on the results thus far and the fact that he's had years of connections. 

His Associate HC/ OLB Coach is a Texas High School Coaching legend

His Def Coord has been coaching for 31 years

His Off Coord has coached at BYU, LSU, Colorado, Arizona State etc. 

His position coaches have much less experience (some successful state championship HS coaches in TX, others a few years at another P5 or G6 school)

Well for one, he had the balls to fire and revamp his offensive staff after one year, and it seemed to work swimmingly. 

He took BYUs OC and OL coach it looks like (their OC is a solid OL coach as well)

As we look at a potential new coaching search, I found this article with the top 20 rated coaches heading into this season. Some interesting highlights:

 

  • Dan Mullen at #5 
  • Pat Fitzgerald at #6
  • Several names listed multiple time in this thread are in the top 20 including Campbell, Chaldwell, Fickell, and Napier

I would put Stoops in the category of very unlikely. I do think Matt Campbell would still be good to consider despite ISU only being 3-2 now.  He has at least shown he can have some very good seasons as the head coach of a P5 program and they have beaten some good teams during his tenure. With the Big 12 going down the tubes, he may want to move to another conference.

Nebraska is not a step up from ISU anymore. NU left the Big 12 because of Texas and OU ten years ago. NU is on its 4th coach since then. Is it a coach issue? The Big 10 west is not any better than new Big 12 adds. Matt C turned down the Detroit Lions this past year. Other names?

I have to disagree. Nebraska has positioned itself to be a step up until they stop playing the game all together. Hiring bad coaches doesn't equate to Nebraska being at the level of ISU. Nebraska is in the easier division in the premier conference, has top notch revenue and soon to be facilities, access to top 25 talent, a major brand, and an incredibly loyal fan base. None of which ISU has except for facilities. It's actually embarrassing to see what Scott isn't doing with this kind of set up. We do need a guy though who treats Nebraska like an ISU while knowing he has plenty more to work with. That's how we will succeed.
