Who should our next HC be?

[Jason Sitoke]

Can we all slow down on the comments for a bit?   Back on page 426 I predicted a new coach would be named on Page 678.   :laughpound

What do you mean?  We've named many coaches since 426.

That is the key.  Raise the floor.  We can worry about the ceiling later.

Yes!  We’re four coaches into the slide, now we’ll need 4 coaches to get out of it. Maybe 6.

Schaefer at 247 seems to think there is some real smoke behind Bronco Mendenhall.

Don't remember that.  Would have remembered the Pepperidge Farm Bowl, because...well you know.

Trev must really not want to win that introductory press conference. That just feels like an awful hire, if it happens.

 

[BIG ERN]

Nebraska media doesn't have a clue imo. They've named like 20 coaches

Then there is this.

Great find.  It sounds like he is really eager to get back to coaching.  Perhaps this was said due to many articles speculating he did not need to coach again due to his large salary from Carolina.  Hearing this interview makes me excited about Rhule and having a guy that LOVES the game.

You can't be wrong if you name every coach you can think of.

 

[HANC]

Why do I feel like we always (except SF) are left grasping at straws at the end of each coaching search?? And the most prominent hire turned out to be the worst.

Might be a worse hire than Riley.

 

[Decked]

If we hire Bronco just shut down men’s sports please. I would rather die than watch. 

 

[knapplc]

Why do people think Mike Schaeffer knows who our next coach is going to be?   ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I hadn't thought about Mendenhall during this process, but I actually think he could be a solid hire.  He had very good years at BYU in the Mountain West, and had good years at Virginia, after they had 4 straight losing seasons under their previous coach.  Judging by his 2020 and 2021 record, Mendenhall wasn't able to maintain the good seasons during/after COVID.

And they deserve it.  And boosters deserve it too. Fans don’t deserve it, but that’s how it goes.
