New Staff Selection

[TGHusker]

Who calls the plays?

I agree, I want an O line coach from a P5 program or higher. My choice of the ones mentioned is Garrison. 
 

I don’t know him, but I wouldn’t be upset if Korn came and brought his RB coach. 
 

A combo of Korn, his RB coach, Garrison and Joseph would be good in my mind. 

And who would do ST?

For the hundredth time… I’ll do it for free! It can’t get much worse.  :lol:

I have lived in South Louisiana since 1989. Joseph has coached some great WRs at LSU but he’s an even better recruiter than he is a coach, and God knows we need some solid recruiters. Right now it’s all just a matter if Kelly wants to retain him or not. It’s already been announced that he’s retaining Corey Raymond and Marshall Faulk. Joseph is such a solid recruiter that Kelly might not want to lose him. If we do hire him, it would revive our lifeline to the New Orleans area, where the Joseph family is well-known. Too bad he can't bring his cousin Terry with him.

I still wouldn’t mind getting rid of an LB coach for the ST coach. 
 

My choice would be Dawson.

I would agree.  

Or one coach for TE and WR and freeing up a spot for Bush, Synder or someone capable of being the ST coach.

Mike Dawson has done a great job....remember?

it isnt crazy, you get rid of a LB coach have Chinander help with LBers if needed (he coached it in the past) you can even go internal and do Busch and have him help Fisher with DBs if needed when not working on ST. Busch is a guy that if you can get on your staff you do it.

If we get an OC who is also thr qb coach, we will have room for a full time STs coach.

 

[Red Five]

Are you assuming we will have an WR/TE coach then?

We can't have a OC/QB, RB, WR, TE, OL, ST, + 5 defensive assistants. That's 11, only allowed 10.

 

[RedDenver]

Why would hiring a new full staff be chaotic? The amount of chaos depends only on the quality of leadership in charge of the hiring. 

Because other people have free will and are not required to do what Nebraska leadership wants regardless of leadership quality. Look around the college football landscape right now and you'll see that lots of places are struggling to hire coaches or retain coaches. No matter how good the leadership is, an OC candidate can suddenly be looking at HC offers if there's a lot of turnover at other schools that has nothing to do with NU or how they're conducting their coaching search.

Oh - I sure do.   We were reminded of that with our little blocked punt episode and our game starting kickoff return for TD during the past 2 weeks.

Still doesn’t work.

Scott might have to take ST over. Beemer and Urb did it for years. 

 

[Jason Sitoke]

Scott might have to take ST over. Beemer and Urb did it for years. 

But then the offense might become inconsistent.

I think you are confusing “chaos” with “talent search”.

chaos is what Nebraska went through after solich was fired. Chaos is whatever seems to be going on in Lincoln now. Talent searches are always ongoing for any and all coaches with talent. Any decent coach will get headhunters calling them every offseason.
