Chinander fired

Wonder how this changes the scheme like would there be a whole scheme change or just parts of it

I'm hearing Ruud and Duval might be next. Also Sean and Dan Dillon, the Director and Assistant Director of Player Personnel.

Matty D won’t be around much longer either

Agree with Ruud and Duval.  But please Dawson, that guy is completely overrated. Probably a matter of how many coaches we need to finish out the season.

Wouldn't surprise me in the slightest. His qualifications for the job were... questionable. But I could see him stick around for radio commentary, I guess.

 

[chamrocck]

Of all the things wrong right, this is what you're concerned about? I'll take better defense and continue to not care about DB's celebrating incomplete passes.

Yes I am concerned about it because it speaks to a s#!tty undisciplined culture. It’s like “hey look at me” when you have been getting your a$$ kicked the whole game. No good teams do this garbage, not even at the high school level.

Honestly surprised it took this long. 

 

[Stone Cold]

Jesus,

Honestly surprised it took this long. 

Might have effectively been fired a week ago, and they just waited to make it Mickey's 'choice'.

 

[talaricohusker]

Honestly surprised it took this long. 

If frost would of fired him after the NW game he’d still have his job

Thank god!! Duval is trash

 

[Vince R.]

Thank god!! Duval is trash

He is the worst. He ruined our lines.

Defense is way way easier to fix than offense. Installing something different is unlikely though.

I still remember Pelinis first year with a very basic defense was one of his best.

Pelini's 2008 team finished 55th in total defense and 80th in scoring defense (link) and got blown out at times that first season: Mizzou 52-17 and OU 62-28. And that's with a whole off-season to learn the defense. I don't think a change mid-season is going to do much of anything to improve the defense, but I hope I'm wrong.

Agree, was never a fan of bringing Dawson back either.

Ehh, I feel like a lot of people are basing their opinions of Duval on the offensive line's performance, but a lot of that is due to all the weird, excessively tall linemen that Austin & Frost recruited. Only so much you can do with guys who are the wrong body types to begin with.

It's not about the defense getting better. It's about removing people that are poisoning the culture of the program.

If Mickey's firing someone, it's because keeping them on board would do more damage than letting them go.
