FORGET STOOPS, WE WANT... ZOOK?!

[NUance]

From @cdunk87 Who do you think would be better fit at Nebraska for DC Ron Zook or Mike Stoops?

Zook is a fantastic recruiter, but as a DC, I'll go with Mike Stoops. Ask OU fans about what they feel like the program has lacked since Mike Stoops left for Arizona. He is a very good coach. People I've spoken to who have worked with him saying he was an excellent tempo setter at practice and very good in the day-to-day. That said it would be interesting to see him on the same sideline with another up-to-the-edge intensity guy like Pelini, but since both go back I suspect they'd could play off each other pretty well if Stoops does end up in Lincoln.

Agreed, we already have good coaches, however we don't have any good recruiters. Zook fills a need, Stoops is more of what we already have.

Just curious...who on our current staff do you think is at the level of Stoops? You may want to read a few bios before you answer that.
