HuskerNation1 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Here is a pretty well thought out article about the coaching search. I apologize if this was already posted but I didn't want to go back 417 pages to check. https://yorknewstimes.com/sports/college/mckewon-key-questions-to-ponder-as-trev-alberts-tightens-coaching-search/article_21849b9f-1cce-520a-98a4-5a17c3c3efba.html Link to comment

He has the second best win-loss record of any active coach who has been head coach for more than 50 games. Chris Klieman-He is moving up my list. He beats a ranked team 48-0 without his starting QB. Pretty impressive. Mark Stoops-He may finish the year 8-4 but he has made Kentucky a reliable and consistent program in the SEC Lane Kiffin-He has gotten better and better with each coaching move. The risk with him is that he may not stay long. Kyle Whittingham-Very unlikely to leave at his age but he has been very consistent for many years https://www.coacheshotseat.com/WinningestActiveCoachesIA.htm Klieman won! He's a winner! We should sign him right now! 1 Link to comment

SouthLincoln Husker Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 Let us Pray, please lord help Trev finish the coaching search. The longer we go the longer there is a chance of mass suicide and/or shootings. Amen! 1 2 Link to comment

He's a great recruiter and a great WR coach but that's it at this point IMO. 1 Link to comment

Fans don't need to like the hire, they need to end up liking the coach once he's doing the job. 3 1 Link to comment
Vizsla1 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 How or Does this weigh on coach’s/player's minds? Let's say for the heck of it that Locksley or Lane K are our guys that we are targeting .....Despite the success, Maryland has struggled to fill SECU Stadium above 60% this season, with the season-best attendance of 31,194 coming out to support the Terps against SMU. “If you're a real competitor, you'll play in front of 100,000 or you'll play in front of one,” head coach Mike Locksley said. I remember Wandale made a comment on Kentucky only drawing less to a home game than Nebraska did to the spring game. Link to comment

He's 8-1. They have a shot to seriously beat Bama next time up. Ole Miss is a better job than Nebraska Link to comment
Ggodd002 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 I don’t understand the love for prime. What has he really done to earn him a place beside urban or other top names? A couple years at a low division football? I have no interest in his personality. We need a proven coach. A proven recruiter. Someone that has proven to be able to turn teams around with time we need a guy who can get us to 8-10 wins in 5 years and then be consistent at that level 2 Link to comment
