[NU fan in Denver]

Does anyone know if they interviewed any other candidates, or if he was the only one.

GREAT HIRE!!

He's got ties to Texas and the southeast - and has a very good track record as a coach.

Tip of the cap to BC - this was a great choice.

 

[Touchdown Tommie]

Hopefully his ties will come in handy right away!

 

[HuskerfaninOkieland]

How will this affect the bowl game? Does Blake continue to coach or does Wyatt take over the duties?

 

[HuskerfaninOkieland]

Never mind. Guess I should read the article first before asking stupid questions chuckleshuffle

 

[Pedro Guerrero]

This is a good hire. The way it seems the recruiting shouldn't drop a bit with him instead of Blake. The fact that he starts right away is huge as well.

 

[BIGREDIOWAN]

This is great news............I agree that our recruiting shouldn't drop at all and the fact that he is starting immediately is huge. I hope that he can pull some recruits out of the south and help our recruting class go up even further. Welcome to Husker Nation Buddy..... :thumbs

It also gives Buddy an extra month to get familiar with the young players.

 

[AV Red]

And he coached against Auburn earlier this year.

May help - may not.

 

[gamecocks]

Can't hurt.

 

[HuskerHank]

Maybe he could bring a defensive end or recruit or two with him.
