Tuioti To Oregon?

My gut feeling is that there are going to be a couple other coaches leaving in the next month or so. That or my gut feels that way from all the Baker's Candies I bought for the holidays.

Yes, my gut feels like there is going to be significant movement, also. Of course, it could be just a bunch of hot air.
 
NU loses good players and now loses a good coach? Something not right at the ranch.

Coaches come and go, that's the nature of the profession. When other programs want your coaches, that is how you know you have good ones. The trick is to find, hire, and be able to retain good coaches even when other programs or even the league comes calling. The sad reality is, the college football most of us grew up with, where programs like Nebrasks had intact coaching staffs for decades, is a relic of the past. Coaches mostly have no loyalty to a particular school because their employment can end at any given day for a variety of reasons.
 
Stability of the assistant coaches has hurt us because Frost didn't start with a staff that was ready to handle the very good head coaches/staffs in the B1G. We've seen small changes up until now - but due to TA's ultimatum (win or get canned) - Frost is making bigger changes to his staff. Just because we lost a good Dline coach does not mean we can't get one as good or better. Not worried at all - freaking about a coach taking a huge payday......get over it - that is the business today of CFB.

The reality is - AT BEST - we are probably 50/50 to make a bowl game next season. That assumes these changes Frost makes actually work to a degree and he fills out the needs on the roster somewhat successfully.

If we have another losing season the entire staff is gone (except maybe Joseph.....but depends on next hire).
 
Interesting clip.........:thumbsup:

"Will Tony Tuioti be a loss?" Yes
"Will Nebraska find its way around losing coach Tuioti?" Yes
"Will Nebraska take a quarterback out of the portal?" Yes
"Should Nebraska be patient in waiting for another quarterback?" Yes

Lanning Adds Tony Tuioti As Defensive Line Coach

"Coach Tuioti is a terrific teacher, and I know our student-athletes are going to absolutely love working with him. Family is extremely important to him, and that really stood out during this process and made it clear he is a great fit for this program. I am honored to welcome Tony and his wife, Keala, their three daughters, Teisa, Teiyana, and Teinia, and their four sons, Teivis, Teilor, Teitum, and Teimana, to the Oregon family."

I'm betting Tony's sons won't be signing their scholly offers to UNL.

It's time to upgrade. Honestly e haven't improved a lot under him. He was entertaining. But that doesn't win games.

Now to find a great OLB coach and another great ILB coach while we are at it. That would go a long ways to shoring up our deficiencies.

The whole deal where parents decide to have a whole bunch of kids and make their names all start with the same letter, or make their names rhyme, or name them after the Seven Dwarves, or whatever other crazy idea they come up with just seems kind of dopey.

It's one of the reasons I was glad to see him go. It's a personality flaw that adversely effects recruiting.

Not only that, but the first three letters of all the kids' names are the same giving the same sound, "tye". Sheesh.

The way Coach Tuioti and his wife names their kids is probably in accordance with the Hawaiian culture he grew up with. In a single post each, you disrespect the coach, his wife, and the culture they came from. Do better.

FFS lighten up Frances. Hawaiians aren't the only ones that do this with children's names. My sisters are Tina, Teresa, and Tamara. It was a humourous observation. Nothing more. It's becoming impossible to know what will offend someone's sensibilities these days.

I think of the couple, who had the show on TV, 19 children, all first names starting with the letter "J". That didn't count at least one miscarriage and one still born. I cannot imagine that many labor and deliveries -- sends chills down my spine.

There was a couple in GI who wanted to have 26 children. Different letter of the alphabet for each child. I know they had 15 or so at one time. Don't know if they made it to 26 or not.

If the names were in alphabetical order after Oscar they decided "This is enough!" Our apologies to Peter, Quincy, Ralph, Sarah, Tina, Uenth, Victoria, Wade, Xavier, Yasmin, and Zane. Uenth...who names their kid Uenth? :p
