Who should our next HC be?

Then, just think about the horrible boneheaded in game decisions that have been throughout Frost’s tenure that directly lead to losses. 

Yeah like clock management was a huge problem for him. I never quite understood that.

 

[SouthLincoln Husker]

I dunno man. To me, losing when you’re up 11 in the 4th, at home, with the wind swirling against a one dimensional offense is simply inexcusable. 

We played not to lose, instead to win.

The only time dirk sounded smart.

I like his writing.

Onside kick was the perfect example that represented so many.

Is there anything to us seriously considering Fickell…  :dunno

Todays leaks came from Cinci's reporters not ours.

I like his writing.  

He is a pot stirrer that like to stretch the fact.  Sorry I am not a fan of true blue Creighton sports writer

Nothing concrete - not that anything here is.  But he's been floated as at least a possibility more in the last few days.  And not just in this thread.

I’d heard similar from someone reliable last week on Fickell that there was legitimate interest. 
 

Then there were rumors that there was nothing to it…

 

[caveman99]

Please no. Give us Meyer. Or Kiffin. Or Aranda. Almost anybody but Fickell.

Fickell’s resume is better than 2 of the 3 you listed, and the 3rd isn’t interested in coaching anymore currently.

I think a bowl game is entirely possible next year.

There are 130 FBS teams.  We play 4 that are currently 111th or worse:

Colorado 126th in SP+

No Illinois 117th in SP+

La Tech 120th in SP+

Northwestern 111th in SP+

Then to make a bowl we just need to get 2 wins from Minnesota, Michigan, Illinois, Purdue, Mich State, Maryland, Wisconsin, and Iowa.

Assuming we aren't 130th in SP+ that seems pretty doable. At this point, I don't take ANYTHING for granted.  :frenchy

Fickell has been in my top 3 since day 1…. Only behind Chris Peterson… I would love LF, Rhule would be a little bit of a letdown, but he is still so much better than about 95% of the names floated.  He is widely known, track record for turning programs around, HUGE Texas ties, NFL ties, just appeared on NFL network for added publicity…. I can get behind this hire, but Fickell is my guy.

 

[Born N Bled Red]

So, Head coach- Rhule

Co- Offensive Coordinator/ QB - Kiffin

Co- Offensive Coordinator/ Line- Fickell

Defensive Coordinator- Kleiman

Special Teams - Traylor

Boat Rowing/ Cheer Coach - Fleck 

 

[gorp512]

Fickell would be an incredible get. How is this possible? 

 

[The Dude]

I don't see many holes in Fickell's resume.  Plus his face is a couple tiers less punchable than Rhule's.

Fickell is also already in Nebraska's record books due to being the coach of the team Nebraska mounted its largest ever comeback against. - That said, he's been my number 1 realistic hire since this started. I'd be ecstatic if it was him.
