It appears Iowa strength coach James Dobson has emerged as the leading candidate to fill the same position at Nebraska, though nobody had been hired as of Tuesday to replace Dave Kennedy, who resigned last month. Kennedy is now the strength coach at Texas A&M.

 
Haven't posted in a while but thought I should chime in here. I too am a little concerned with the lack of experience of this staff...BUT...let's not start erecting crucifixes just yet. They certainly CAN'T be any worse than all of the "experience" we had on the staff last season. The thing that really has me optimistic is this staffs apparent youth. I think they have a better chance of "connecting" with the players as some of them really aren't that far removed from what the players are experiencing.

Yes, youth can also bring new ideas in terms of scheme or motivation.

 
Young coaches they may be.. and lack the experience that older coaches have, but...With youth comes creativity and energy. And Football IS a young man's game.....

Osborne was 35 when he became a head coach. Devaney was 47 when he took over here and he had been a head coach for some time before that. Stoops was what? 30-something when he took over at OU... How old is Urban Meyer now?

food for thought...
