If Bo is let go - who could Nebraska get

Check some of the universities who have opened their checkbooks.......let me know if it led to championships or buyouts.



Alabama--championship
Auburn--championship
LSU--championship
USC--championship
Texas--championship

Actually, every championship ever since no one coaches for free
Current coaches in order of salary

Saban at Alabama - 8 years, 3 national championships, 3 SEC championships with 4 appearances

Stoops at Oklahoma - 15 years, 1 national champinship with 3 appearances, 8 Big XII championships with 9 appearances

Charlie Strong at Texas - remains to be seen

Sumlin at Texas A&M - 3 years, no championships, 2-2 in bowl games (11 wins, 9 wins, 7 wins, in order)

Meyer at Ohio State - 3 years, no championships with one conference appearance, 0-1 in bowl games, but we all know his history at Florida and they've been under sanctions. Yet to lose a regular season conference game.

Miles at LSU - 10 years, 1 national championship with 2 appearances, 2 conference championships with 3 appearances.

Hoke at Michigan - 4 years, no championships or divisional championships, one BCS bowl win, severely trending downwards

Briles at Baylor - 7 years, 1 conference championship, trending upwards at a school with no football history

Sarkisian at USC - 1st year, remains to be seen, but didn't accomplish much of anything at Washington

Ferentz at Iowa - 2 conference co-championships, handful of losing seasons

Malzahn at Auburn - 2 years, 1 conference championship, lots of "luck"

Franklin at Penn State - remains to be seen

Kelly at Notre Dame - 5 years, no championships with 1 national championship appearance, 44-18 record with up and down individual seasons and downwards trend the last 3 seasons

Spurrier at South Carolina - 10 years, no championships with one appearance, 1 divisional championship, 65% winning average, not much football history at USC

Fisher at Florida State - yeah he good

this isn't an argument just data

The argument is in the data. I was going to gather all of this up but it was way too time consuming only to attempt to convince someone who isnt going to change their mind otherwise. If you want a "proven" head coach, which by all accounts is what Nebraska wants and needs then you are going to need to open up the checkbook to get one. Anyone else is a risk and one we likely are not in the position to take. Deciding the next head coach at Nebraska will likely be the most important decision made in sometime at NU. Fail and we likely will fall into the abyss and become another Minnesota.


 
I believe Nebraska could get just about any coach they wanted to get. But it would depend on how wide they open the wallet to do so.
Enough is enough and it's time to open it very wide, get the guy in here that's going to get it done.

Having said that, if they don't want to open it too wide, I'm reading about Jim McElwain now, definately has the experience.

I still kinda liklike the idea of Jim Tressel as head coach with frost being the OC and heir apparent to him learning the ropes of a hc under a great all around mind. Those two could bring in great recruiting classes especially in the midwest and west coast. Frost would love to be here imo if it's not under bo and he knows he could take the reigns at some point.
I'd be on board with this, but who are we talking about for DC?
Bud Foster.

Why would he come here knowing if they don't win a CC they are unemployed?

 
How about Dan Mullen? Grew up in the Northeast, and of course has the Southern ties working at Florida and now at Miss. St. Heck Mississippi State was complete garbage before he took over.
Whats his defense ranked again?
Who's 9-1 in the most talented conference in football with Mississippi St.? With a top 20 offense, and gives up less points than Nebraska does. Oh and let me remind you he coaches at Mississippi St. The program who before he took over in 2009 had two winning seasons since 2000. I would be pumped if we somehow pulled him in
