If we could pull LeFleur from the Packers or Urban from the Jags to be OC, those would be great too. College guys like Ryan Day or Malzahn would be great OC hires. Haha, I hear you. But if there is some inside knowledge that Mullen is out at FL than let’s talk to him. It would be a splash that would get people’s attention as Mullen can coach offense and QB’s. He could help us win the West. Quote Link to comment

I even think a guy like Ruggiero is going to have better options on the table. I know people want a sure thing, but sure things aren't coming here under these circumstances. Quote Link to comment
UniversalMartin Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 12 hours ago, The Dude said: Romo has forgotten more about football than most of these college coaches will ever learn. I always wondered how he'd do as a coach, but I think he could easily snag a coordinator job in the NFL if he was so inclined. I do think it's Helfrich that Scott has in mind for the position. Scott seems committed to running the duck sh!t offense. Which, to me, kind of defeats the purpose of cleaning house on the offensive side of the ball. The idea of Helfrich makes sense on a "ego" level for Frost. You KNOW he wants to be involved with playcalling, even if he is publicly saying he needs to get better at just overseeing the Team. Helfrich is one guy where Frost would have a harder time meddling with, simply because of their previous coaching relationship. And imo, the Duck offense does not bother me. It can work, it just needs someone who can call it with current and future purpose in a game. 2 Quote Link to comment

Big 12 is becoming less relevant so coaches there may look to move. Quote Link to comment
Huskers93-97 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Really anyone with success in the SEC or BIG10 is where I would focus. Those are the top 2 conferences. SEC obviously being the best. If you can coach in the SEC you can do the BIG10. But taking a guy with BIG12 or PAC12 experience wont get me excited. Considering defense is optional in those conferences how many great D coordinators did they have to scheme against. 1 Quote Link to comment

If he were the offensive coordinator, it would be a good hire IMO. I agree with the idea that different schemes can work, what is important is that the plays fit the player strong points and are executed well, along with some adaptability. 3 Quote Link to comment

It can work, it just needs someone who can call it with current and future purpose in a game. From Scott's press conference 2 things stood out to me. He doesn't want to abandon the duck sh!t offense, and he wants someone he's worked with before. Kinda has to he Helfrich, right? It would be the big "name" hire. And it makes sense for what Frost wants to do. I just don't see the point of firing your whole offensive staff if you're not making wholesale changes. 2 Quote Link to comment
Vince R. Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I'd have to imagine Helfrich is in the top three. I wouldn't hate that at all. The guy is suited to be a life long OC, and a damn good one. 4 2 2 Quote Link to comment

RichardHangslow Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Peetz is going to the NFL I am hearing that we may be getting this guy for our OL coaching position that is currently vacant. Donovan Raiola (chicagobears.com) 1 1 Quote Link to comment
