Norvell/ISU vacancy

[Eric the Red]

Norvell is quoted as saying,"I've worked a long time to get into position to become a head coach," Norvell said today. "I've been around a lot of great people and coaches, including Dan McCarney. I'd be excited to be a head coach at the right place, but right now, we're in the middle of a championship hunt at Nebraska and that's where all my focus is."

After the season he will get some offers..somewhere, whether he takes them or not is left to be seen. He's quite loyal to Callahan, so he will be coach through the season. Watson will be promoted to OC IMO

it would be a big loss if nebraska lost norvell

 

[General Blackshirt]

question, what exactly does the OC do???

i mean, callahan is the one who calls the plays, so in a game, isn't norvell just another coach?

 

[hack]

he works with the quarterbacks.

he works with the quarterbacks.

Norvell also assists in offensive gameplanning and giving Callahan a "eye in the sky" in games.

I think going to ISU without the University seriously stepping up the support/long-term commitment would be a setup for failure. I can't imagine why anyone would want the job.

It is a job that will get used as a stepping stone to somewhere that can actually win something.

he can also kill a man with two popsicle sticks and a roll of floss.

...

okay, i'm making that last one up.

Norvell will initially be impossible to replace. He and Calahan and the rest of the O-staff and team are on the same sheet of music. Let's hope he doesn't leave.
