I’m so sad and disappointed right now, I actually feel like crying.

“By early Thursday evening, Football Scoop, a well-connected clearinghouse for college coaching news, packed four names — current interim coach Mickey Joseph, Army coach Jeff Monken, Matt Rhule and Gary Patterson — into a vague report about Nebraska Athletic Director Trev Alberts’ search for a coach.“

 

If these are our four options, them I’m OUT. For good this time. These four people will not be successful here. If one of these four people are given the job, we will be going through this same process 3-4 years from now and Trev will be looking for his next gig at South Dakota or Buffalo. These four options are utterly unacceptable…ugh. 
 

Time for me to get drunk and cry now.

LOL - I’m so distraught I fumbled the tag (just fixed it;-)

I can understand people tuning out when the product on the field is bad. But you would be out forever based on an underwhelming coach? It's a crapshoot, home run hires fail and questionable ones succeed. Fans can be upset about whoever we hire but tuning out completely based on it is shortsighted.

Gary Patterson Head Coach.  Mickey Joseph OC.

I wouldn't be mad at Gary Patterson. My only concerned there is that most of his success came when TCU was in Conference USA and Mountain West. He had a few good seasons in the Big 12 but most were underwhelming.

I can see the slogan for the 2023 season...

 

EMBRACE THE SUCK!!!!!!!!!!

For conversation place, may I ask "who" you want (realistically).... Prime and Urban are pipe dreams.... I am not arguing with you, just would like to see your opinion, before you get drunk...ha

I could name 20, but here are a few for starters: Aranda, O’Brien, Beliema, Meyer (yes, we’d have a shot), and Fleck. We could get any of these guys if we were willing to pay up.

Actually OC is a position I really don't want MJ in.  I want someone who is experienced for each of our coordinators.

That’s understandable if you were to. I’ve felt similar sentiments…

 

I’d caution however that this is the latest round of names speculated upon. Trev said that he’d be speaking with many different coaches as part of the search. 
 

We won’t know until the process concludes and the coach is officially determined.

1. These are 4 names among dozens that have been bandied about for the last two months, without ever getting any actual verification from any reliable source. No need to read too much into this.

2. Out of everything Husker fans have been through, this article is what makes you feel like crying? Good god, man.

3. We did not need another godd@mn separate thread about the muckerfuthing coaching search!

Maybe Trev already spoke with a bunch of different coaches... maybe those four were the only one's showing true interest; while the other names said "I'll get back to 'ya"
