If and when a new coach gets hired do you believe the roster gets smaller?

If Mickey is retained, I think we won't lose too many.  If perhaps someone who doesn't carry much cache is hired, we lose a bunch.  Hate to say this but I think Mickey needs to be retained for at least one season in order to keep things moving forward.  Whether thats as an assistant or head.  Odds of him staying around if not named HC are slim at best, but thats the ultimate best case scenario. 

I would worry about Mickey not making the tough cuts that are needed because so and so has been loyal to him. I am praying no whip next year. Totally unimpressed with him.  I am dreaming of cutting those who can't/are not going to add anything to the team, and a mass influx of NIL talent. Hopefully with better coaching and talent, NU can get to a bowl game.  My other thought is what would Mickey run on offense? I am ready for the wishbone over the crap I have the last 20 years. I write that semi-sarcastically. Beef up the line and let's push the other team around for a change.

What makes you think he would be worse at that than the other candidates being discussed?

Familiarity with the players. He has ties with these guys. He knows them. He may feel loyalty to them. (...and he may not) A new guy can cut anyone he wants because he has zero ties to them or their families. Just a thought.
