I wont mind the hiring. I thought Pickett was great this year. But I will be disappointed if the best QB we can bring in is Purdy. I just don't see the arm (or leg) talent that Nebraska would need/want. 

Yeah I was just kidding, I think there's a lot better talent in the portal.

Both Whipple and Quinn are older with head coaching experience. If it’s these guys it tells me we highly valued bringing in some experienced grizzled vets to help Frost. We all saw Frost was in over his head and these guys seem like they can try to stabilize things and take care of coaching football. This route could be safe and less friction vs. some young guy coming in at OC trying to make a name for himself.  Plus I think these guys would tell Frost when it’s not working vs the staff that owed him since he brought them over as reward from UCF. Marry Frost’s concepts with these guy’s experience.

Not sure if I love either hire, but maybe tempered expectations are good. 
 

both long in the tooth, which I think is comfortable for Frost.

What is the down side to Quinn?

according to pittsburghsportsnow.com Whipple met with Frost on Sunday and resigned on Tuesday while visiting a qb in AZ

Wish that was the case. Almost 100% positive he visited Purdy

He simply hasn't had the resources and pedigree at his disposal, always punching in a weight class above him.

 

Imagine what he'll do here

So in 3 years with Whipple, Pickett got better each season culminating with him being a top 2 QB in CFB? 

 

I see 2 mediocre years followed by an explosion by a 5th year QB.  I mean, Whipple hasn't exactly been a notable coach anywhere.  I hope I'm wrong, I really do and maybe Whipple has finally figured out the secret at 64 years old.  As I mentioned earlier, he's about as good as you can expect to get given the circumstances with SF.

A man can hope for no reason, can't he? Isn't this America?!?

That's right. We can dream and have differing opinions and ideas and preferences. A great many have made real sacrifices for these ideals. The bottom line here is that we're all wanting our team to experience success and to get back to enjoying football. That can get lost in all the conversations and debate. 

 

Our chances of landing top notch quarterbacks would increase with this hire. If we can't have a Heisman finalist, hopefully we'd snag a really good one.

The only weird thing to me is, why resign? Why not just take a new job? Seems like a weird path to a new school.

First step is to resign from his current job, to accept a different job.

Seems like a weird thing to think is weird. Typically you resign from a job to take a new job.

I mean the guy came from Pittsburgh, and it's a well-known fact that great people come from Pittsburgh.

I read his contract was up anyway.

I know in Baton Rouge they're saying the reason Kelly didn't bring him is because he has some health issues.
