Husker in WI Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Sounds like Joey Connors was promoted to ST Coordinator - assistants will still be involved and Busch will keep an eye on it, but Connors will run it. https://huskers.com/staff-directory/joey-connors/1598 Quote Link to comment

Imagine trying to listen to a coach you all know all be gone before the next game I believe it has to do with when Joseph decides he can't work with a particular coach. He wants changes. If that coach refuses to change and there is someone that can step into the roll, they will be gone. Obviously, Chins wasn't willing to make the changes Joseph wanted. 1 Quote Link to comment

I mean, I see the garbage they put on the field every week, but is it that they're lacking talent, or our player development is three years behind schedule? Quote Link to comment

You have to have guys able to step into their roles, we don't gain anything by promoting a GA or analyst over any of the position coaches. The coordinators (well and HC) are the roles where a change can make a huge difference. I don't know how much Busch will change, but I said it in another thread - a midseason DC change worked wonders for Minnesota. They weren't also dealing with a HC change and it's far from a guarantee, but it's worked before. They were giving up 43 points per game in conference play in 2018, then gave up 15 per game in the last 4 games with Rossi. They've been good since, he was up for the Broyles award last year. 1 Quote Link to comment

The blelow info was in the 2022 offensive line thread, which came from a Mitch Sherman article on Monday. There have been a lot of recruiting whiffs and poor development on the offensive line.

They lack talent BECAUSE they are 3 years behind in development... however, I don't see much improvement from last year, thus, Raiola hasn't exactly been a major plus thus far... can't say he's been a negative tho; simply to early to tell. 1 Quote Link to comment
