I hear Rhule is nearly a done deal but negotiating the line of smocks. The university has signed off on most but Rhule really wants the “Smock U” and “Smock Off” editions.  They are more edgy. The Blackshirts will have a Blacksmocks edition, really cool design with the skeleton throwing the bones in a vest outfit. I really like it. 

So the smock deal fell through!? :dunno

Man I don't want to be TOO cynical but all it would take would be someone inside the Athletic Department feeding this to Sipple to throw him off, too. Sip is a mouthpiece for the department.

 

Yes they could be playing all the media.  Now if Franklin would go to Auburn I can see Rhule going to Penn State where he played ball.

I can 100% confirm we have some of the worst sports journalists around. 
 

This search has just made a mockery of all of them.

They’re old and used up. Coaching searches for them must be exhausting and we do them so often.

"If it all" incredible journalism right there. So Nebraska won't announce a coach we will just have an anonymous one which would be kinda cool

That’s quite possibly the dumbest, non-specific scoop I’ve read in some time related to this progrum. It reads as if Rhule has a placed an ultimatum that we either announce early next week or he’s going elsewhere.  
 

trev ain’t announcing this before Iowa game wraps. It’s just not happening, Friday night or Saturday morning is likely.

 

as it stands now, the only candidate who would possible be delayed until after title weekend would be fickell.

What a home run that would be too. I refuse to believe Trev paid that extra 7mil and canned Frost so quick just to eventually land a Monken/Patterson type. This is the 2nd best job looking for a coach it's time to land us a good coach.

@admo - I think if Trev is going the route of low ball offer until proven success then he's going to hire Mickey at 6-7 million with additional incentives of 2-3 mil if he achieves certain goals.. That said, I doubt Trev goes the low ball route. He'll spend the $.$$ to get the coach he wants. This hire is huge. Low balling an offer would be way too counter productive.

 

So we would be paying Mickey somewhere from 6-10 million a year?!!! You'd be willing to pay him more than the chosen one Frost with much less experience. WOW. And that is not a lowball offer. That is anywhere from 4th to 1st most made in the B1G for an assistant who cares more about the players and relationships than the money. I do agree that we will spend what it takes. Trev said so the other day during the radio interview.

Talking fickell? I think it would be the best hire not named urban. He knows the big ten and has DEEP relations/experience where our conference fertile recruiting grounds r, aka ohio, penn, va

I am more positive about the job than most. We have the fans, facilities, and money to be a strong program in the B1G with a chance at the playoffs. While our tradition is fantastic, many recruits don't know of it because of their youth. Our biggest sell to both coaches and recruits must be that we have the newest tech and facilities to develop NFL talent and keep talent coming in. This will lead to the coach gaining a great reputation and possibly going down as a hero/legend to the whole state. While this is the best possible case, we do still have our cons. But I believe the upside is there, and much closer than many of us realize. As to who that will be, only the One Above knows. Maybe Trev too.

Yup and a big difference on what kind of recruits he could get and develop compared to some of the other candidates mentioned

Twitter is full of bots and phonies. I don't believe anything that comes from these clickbait specialists.
