Realistic Coaching Hires with the AD

[B.B. Hemingway]

We need a Head Coach, not a lead actor in a porn.

You don't know you need, what you've never had.....

It is clear he was brought in to build the football program back up. That means Riley is basically already fired without being fired yet. 

Chip Kelly, IMO, now becomes a realistic candidate because of the connection from Oregon. 

Realistic:

Chip Kelly

Frost

Utah caoch

Navy coach (might be pushing it, but still a solid coach)

His focus will be to build the football program back up so I suspect he goes with someone that is a bright football mind. 

  This has chip Kelly written all over it

My guess is that Campbell sees ISU as an opportunity to vault him to a much better gig than Nebraska.  If Campbell can win at Iowa State, he'll have the USC's, UCLA's, etc. coming after him.

hahaha UCLA? are you for rel? what makes UCLA so appealing? little brother to USC, no where near the tradition as Nebraska. 

 

[BillMoos]

There's not enough acid in the state of Nebraska for me to trip hard enough to hire Craig Bohl.

 

[Crusader Husker]

hahaha UCLA? are you for rel? what makes UCLA so appealing? little brother to USC, no where near the tradition as Nebraska. 

Yes he is for real, (rel), it is because of the proximity to recruits.  Coaches look at those type of things.  Tradition doesn't matter to some when we have lost to them lately.

Obviously Nick Ssssssssaban.

Where would $3.0-3.5M rank him among college coaches?

You think he's worth 3-3.5 mil.  Based on what?  How much would an actual Chip Kelly cost?  I love the idea of Scott Frost, I'm just not sure he's worth 3.5 mil at this time.

He has no connection to Kelly. They never crossed paths at Oregon. 

 

[The Dude]

Matt Campbell would be a really depressing hire.

 

[YoteSker]

He has no connection to Kelly. They never crossed paths at Oregon. 

They had like a month of crossover.

 

[brophog]

Wow, McShay is somewhat bitterly negative about us isn't he?  This is what happens when you keep hiring no-bodies to run a tradition rich program and let it go basement bound in quick time.

No, it happens when you're a McAsshole.

 

[NoLongerN]

i had thought years ago nebraska should have hired coach snyder ,  kansas states coach....he would have made nu a winner

He would be a good option.  I'm gonna guess that he still has 10 years of coaching in him.  The guy is like Yoda!

 

[brownNgold]

Wasn't Bohl the architect of the 2001 Debacle in Boulder defense? The game that started the descent. No thanks.

Yes he is horrible, don't even look at his resume after 2001

 

[BoNeyard]

They had like a month of crossover.

Heard he really liked how he said "Hi, how are you?" That one time they walked by each other in the hallway.

 

[YoteSker]

Guess it depends on how good of a first impression he left haha

He's likely to be a hot commodity after the season, I think it might take around $4 million.

Fleck was hired for 3.5 at Minnesota, Brohm for 3.3 at Purdue for example.

 

[grandpasknee]

Anybody who DIDN'T think or suggest that Bill Moos would be the next AD should just take a break from speculating who the next head coach will be, I think.  LOL  I believe that would be almost, if not everyone on HB.

 

[macroboy]

Both border an ocean. Nebraska does not. Where would Mike make port? I would never land lock the pirate. 

You are the only reason I keep coming to HBoard right now.

 

[YellowShirt]

Matt Campbell would be a really depressing hire.

Bielema or Miles would be more depressing for me. Campbell would be underwhelming, but he has done good things at ISU

 

[funhusker]

I heard Urban was using last night as an "interview".
