New Defensive Coordinator Rumors

[Stumpy1]

Supposedly we are still in it to land Elijah Robinson as a DL coach

Kiffin is keeping LSU’s DC and he has a big say on who he wants retained.

Robinson would be a splash hire for a position coach/RC.

LSU, Nebraska battling for Elijah Robinson’s services as DL coach

After Football Scoop reported Elijah Robinson had agreed to leave Syracuse for LSU, the publication confirmed Nebraska is trying to poach him.

Sounds like Rhule offered Robinson a large salary (like WAY more than Bradden's) and more titles than just DL coach.

Note that a couple years ago at A&M, before he was hired as Syracuse's DC, he was the second highest-paid DL coach in the country. It's probably safe to assume that our offer is in line with that.

This is what it's gonna take. Go overboard, pay too much and get this going. You got spend money to make money, and winning makes money.

So does this mean Bradden is gone? Assuming so if these rumors have any truth. How do you throw a bag of $$ to someone and if they decline, go back to a guy who knows you wanted someone else

Maybe, but there's also no limit on coaches now. You could theoretically move him to just DE's or something along those lines. Is it fiscally responsible, probably not, but it's not our money so who cares.

I can't imagine a scenario where we keep Bradden, I mean why would we when his unit was the worst on the team this year? Either we bring in Robinson or Aurich brings in his guy.

I was just looking at Robinson online. I read he’s top 5-10 in the game as a DL coach. Please Santa, for all the Husker board children, this gift

 

[GlobalHusker]

I don’t think this is gonna happen for us. Most of the news outlets are reporting him already signed on a contract with LSU
