Bret is ambitious. He is not going to settle for 8 win seasons. He wants to compete for playoffs. He is a big ten guru and he knows how to outcoach coaches in the big ten. A program like Nebraska gives him a much higher visibility. I know a lot of people on this blog believe that Nebraska lost it’s allure but I still believe that coaching at Nebraska is as prestigious as coaching at Oklahoma or Texas and definitely way better visibility than Illinois. So, if he wants to upgrade, he will come to Nebraska. If he wants an easy task, he will stay at Illinois. I guess we will never know unless he is asked.
