skeener Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I remember when Solich was fired, Meyer had just finished his first year at Utah after just two at Bowling Green. He was obviously a rising star, but he didn't become the 'it' coaching prospect until the following year when the Utes went undefeated. Still, his name came up once in a while, but I don't think Pedersen went after him at all. Everyone was thinking more established, name coaches back then. May have really missed out. He's not coming now. Niether is Fickel. Link to comment
BIGREDIOWAN Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Whomever we hire better be either a current or have been head coach in a successful P5 conference. NU has to spend record money here to fix this on a proven comodity or its over and its never coming back! No experiments, no "we hope it works out" pay the goddamn money and FIX THIS! 1 2 Link to comment

Huskerfollower4life Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 If Trev Alberts hires a borderline coach I swear to you that Nebraska will lose fans and support and the sellout streak. Nebraska will never be relevant again. 2 Link to comment

Well Urban was "interviewed" today and we know he only gave 1 of 2 answers "No, I am just not looking to coach" or "I might be interested, how about we talk about it more later" So there is a 50/50 chance that he is at the very lest "interested". He say 90k fans there today for a s#!t team...that is impressive. Lance will get a look. The WSU guy...no idea at all. Lane...no chance. Link to comment
funhusker Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Outside of Osborne and Callahan, what was the last staff to not have problems with booze, drugs, and/or women? Hell, coeds and whiskey are pretty much a Nebraska tradition!!! Link to comment
Red Five Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 I want either Meyer or Campbell because based on the reactions on here 50% of our fanbase will throw a hissy fit if either is hired. 1 Link to comment

My point is I don't think he achieves success here. 8, 10, 13...I think if he takes the job, he does it solely for the money (buyout) and mails in the rest. He's a jacka$$. I work because I get paid a salary, sure. But my effort reflects completely on my employer and my reputation is all I have to attract new business. I just don't believe he has the character to be invested. I believe he negotiates a golden parachute and works harder to jump out of the plane. Like Frost. He had to know that he was in WAY over his head. But he got the last laugh He is currently being paid big bucks to watch football and talk about it on TV. If he's looking for "cush", he's already got it. I believe, if he actually came to Lincoln, it should be reassuring to fans that he has something to prove. His ego is WAY to big to be happy losing...

Do you think that a borderline coach will bring enough buzz to the program to make the people excited for change. I don't. 1 Link to comment
