I'm confused. Why would we want two OC's?

It was buy one get one free day on the coaching carousel.

Two OC's... gag.

Just what we need - more people to point fingers at when it isn't working. More complications in moments of pressure/high-stress, time running down.

When the two OC's are conflicted, does that entice Frost to lean in and call things?

Maybe I'm off base, but somebody please give me examples of top-10, championship winning teams that are making this work. Honest question.

We need an identity like Michigan was able to do. Be excellent at running the ball and stick to it. Commit to it.

Plenty of teams have co coordinators...OU is one.Nothing wrong with that at all, matter of fact may be a good thing, they can gang up on our HC and tell him where its at....LOL.

 

[Doc Holiday]

it's not nearly as bad as people are making it out to be and if this is the case and we do make a miraculous turn around....
Frankly I wouldn't care if Ma and Pa Kettle were the coordinators .

Im assuming you call em both OC's 1. to be able to pay each more and 2 because they'd both be actually involved in game-planning and strategy, but one would have play calling duties...that's the only way I'd see it work....but then again I've never worked in college foosball so I'm no groundhog expert.

I just got one of those phone calls that no body in Nebraska wanted to get.

I am hearing that we should NOT be to optimistic about Mickey Returning to Nebraska.

LSU knows what Raymond and Joseph have and can do for them and this is part of the reason they threw bunches of money at Brian Kelly to leave N.D. so they could strike before someone like us started pinching their coaches and players not to mention there are WAY more stable jobs available in the south if Mickey does not get retained by Kelly.

So per a very good source, it's not over yet but, don't hold your breath.

Sorry I know that's not the kind of stuff anyone wants to hear right now but that is what I was just told about 10 min ago.

[Jimbosc]

Yeah - been some rumors once Kelly's ND OC turned him down to come to LSU he told Mickey he wanted him to stay.....I assume at whatever price makes it work.

 

[innmc]

Probably good for MJ. He has built some success there and would probably be better for him to finish what he has worked hard to build.

He probably didn't want to coach in the schemes you outlined yesterday. Don't blame him for that.

The OL hire is going to be the most important hire out of these new hires and it isn't close.

 

[Crazyhole]

Hearing that Mickey is out and the OC prospects aren't anything to get excited about now.

 

[Doc Fumble]

Hearing that Mickey is out and the OC prospects aren't anything to get excited about now.

What???!? You mean all the hotshot OC prospects aren't beating down the door to work for Frost for a year or two at Nebraska???!? I'm shocked.

 

[MadRat]

I'd still be speaking with Herman. Even if he didn't come, pick his brains regarding coaching talent.

I still think Major Applewhite would make a fine QB coach. He's at South Alabama this year and should be eager to move out of Mobile.

 

[Blatz]

this is unfortunate... not sure I can judge how good of coach he was, but I do know he was great on the recruiting trail.

Yeah— the longer this drags on the less optimistic I am

Does that mean we will be running the Army offense next season?

 

[innmc]

I wish we could get as good as Army on offense

 

[ATX_Husker]

You may get your wish, just posted in another thread that recruits are supposedly being told we will announce the OC in ten days which would be after the Army Navy game on 12/11

 

[MadRat]

That certainly will shake up our roster. Sounds like people want Army's O, which is good for a MAC level program. I'm not so sure it will do us any favors with recruiting.
