Mel Tucker is available for 9.5M over 10 years. You will need to install Bark on his phone however. :cowbell:
Why Nebraska will never return to glory

I tend to agree with the not hiring a black HC, in theory you are correct. I also think that Prime was never going to be the first either. He is more about himself than about any team he has ever played for or coached. He is a winner though. He was on winning teams in every stop along his path. That does count for something.
As far as how long he remains with Colorado...........until a better job in warmer climate presents itself. Credit Colorado for hiring him. Most won't because he is Prime. Now because of just two games, he is the hottest name in the market. I don't see him leaving now until his boys are in the NFL. Florida St would be the obvious answer when Norvell implodes.
I think your post has some points of interest. I would have taken a different angle on this. I think our future is rather bland because we are adding 4 new teams next season who will come in better than us and most of the Big 10. UCLA, USC, Washington, and Oregon are more talented and are just better football teams right now.
I would rank the current Big 10 schools, including those 4 like this:
1. Michigan
2 USC
3 Penn ST
4. Ohio ST
5. Washington
6. UCLA
7. Oregon
8. Iowa
9. Maryland
10. Minnesota
11. Michigan St
12. Wisconsin
13. Purdue
14. Nebraska
15 Indiana
16, . Northwestern
I dont care what order you rank each team, but everyone knows that those 4 new teams are better than anything in the West division.

I don’t agree with the ranking. I would put us at 16. When was the last time we beat northwestern? Last year, that was their only win, which makes us a little worse than pathetic. May be after we lose to northern Illinois, you agree to change our ranking.
Matt Rhule will make less than half of what Kirby makes this year. Head Coach, staff, and QB matter the most in College football. We need head coaches to leave their schools to become coordinators while bringing an elite QB with them. We got Satterfield and Sims…. Not to mention a 23 year old to be the WR coach. We have no elite Offensive players because our staff hasn’t been elite to complement the Head coach. We keep repeating the same old stuff over and over. This staff has a chance after a full 4 year cycle, but this program needed an immediate turn around after no Bowls forever in Husker years. Can we just recruit a QB that can pass at some point? Sick of the run first, no chance at Elite QB recruit systems

I didn't read this thread. Is it just another whinefest?

I am a Husker fan and I am only here to say enough is enough. We had a rare opportunity to get a package that included a popular Coach, a great staff, and Heisman level QB and WR/DB combo. WE DIDN'T EVEN TRY FOR THIS. Not to mention we have already missed on a Generational legacy QB in Raiola. When we miss out on top level tackles in Baker and Brix, you might finally get what has happened. We are at the bottom of CFB with some of the nicest facilities and a great place to live (Lincoln, according to USNEWS rankings). I do not think Matt Rhule was a bad hire, but he brought a terrible OC and QB with him. It was not the hire we needed to turn the program around before we all have grey hairs or no hair at all from pulling it out.
He will be at Colorado until his son is done playing. He will then get hired by a top program if he continues to coach. If he came to Nebraska, he might just have stayed knowing that he would have more resources than Colorado will ever offer. Either way, we would be in the Top 25 again and looking at a bowl game this year instead of being at the bottom of the terrible Big Ten West.
When you are ok with the horribleness and the collapse of a dynasty program. Stop stealing other people's work from the internet.
Rhule is making 5.5 million this year. Mel Tucker would have been a better hire for recruiting.
Flo Jo would be 64 years old this year. We should try and see if we can restart the triple option run only system to celebrate the last time Adidas was popular.
