Riley Sucks, Who Do We Steal?

Randy Edsall for DC would be very wise and realistic hire, IMO, and we potentially fire Banker tomorrow and pick Edsall up. We'd only have Edsal for a few seasons (unless we pay close to 1m/yr for him, I'd wager) and he's made some excellent defenses out of nothing more than chewing gum, hockey tickets, toothpicks, and 2* recruits that even MacGyver would be jealous of.

Has a connection with Hank Hughes. And although Edsall didn't work out at Maryland, the guy can recruit very well. If only Riley wasn't married to Banker

 
Not to pile on, but Kelly's offenses in the NFL have been nothing to sneeze at. He's kept it rolling there as well with Nick Foles and Mark Sanchez... And Bradford's finally coming on now.

Ok, I'm kind of piling on.

 
Is there honestly any realistic chance that Mike Reilly isn't here for at least 3 more seasons?
Probably not unless we had back to back losing seasons. Remember, we usually fire winning coaches. We haven't had somebody come in a lose this quickly and in such inept ways. This is new territory for NU in a way. If we could go 6-6 and then 8-4 or something next year, he will be fine.

Hopefully the boosters can break them up at the end of the year...especially if the defense continues to be as bad as it is currently and we don't make a bowl.

And if they can't...well, then this is Callahan all over again.

Bring him in in time for minny
 
I just wanted to play the same game everyone else does. Seems like when ever any name is mentioned it is destroyed.

Chip Kelly won't come here, he is being mentioned now for USC, Texas and yes even Oregon if they so choose to walk Helfrich to the front door.

Seems to me that Nebraska now, on 3 different occasions has either waited too long to fire coaches or not long enough. Seems like the next year after Nebraska has hired there next great coach, a list of A List coaches are looking for work...........patience.

Seriously, Chip Kelly can recruit, but like Riley his offensive game isn't meant for the Big 10, at least thats the going rate on Riley our fans disapproval of him! Funny fans here in the Big Red Nation. Funny.

Also has a connection with Stewart. Stewart was his DC from 2012-2014.

I don't know why I am defending Chip Kelly but do you really think he wouldn't be able to outscore Purdue and the rest of the bad Big10 teams? Lets face it, Riley has never seen the success that Chip Kelly has year over year and they really can't be compared.

Him.

He quit/retired just now.

There it is, wondered how long this rumor would take to surface. This coupled with Frost as OC and Edsall as DC, then "we'd all be drinkin' that free Bubble-Up and eatin' that rainbow stew"
