I’m sorry. We do have a good OC currently!
I wasn’t clear. What I intended to suggest is that Mr. Grimes meets a number of criteria (In my opinion) to potentially be considered for head coach were he interested in the position.
Who should our next HC be?

Well he said the fan base is second to none - I guess we can all pat ourselves on the back for that!! :clap
He said how he was a fan of Nebraska of the 1990s and finds it hard to believe the struggles since then. (my paraphrase)

Urban is actually probably onto something with the recruiting aspect of his comments, but I think it has more to do with correctly identifying players who will be able to fit your developmental needs.
It's pretty clear right now that Nebraska doesn't have a lot of dudes they've been able to effectively develop over the last 3-4 years. Some of it is certainly due to transferring. And yeah, you're not gonna 'hit' on all your recruits, but if you look at a lot of the guys they brought in 3-4 years ago that were supposed to anchor Nebraska's resurgence... they're not playing at a level you would expect or hope. If you're not bringing in elite level talent every off season (which Nebraska does not) then you HAVE to own the development side of the business.
That's a song we've been singing around here for two decades now, though.

True and I feel its bc the coaches that Nebraska has had are not top tier coaches. Not great recruiters and not good developers. Nebraska has been cheap so they get crappy results bc of that.

I will just leave this here:
Does this sound like someone who has changed with the times to be the best or who has had their pinnacle pass them by? Dude doesn't understand people in a way to properly run a high functioning organization.

This is going to be Campbell or Jim Leonard after Fickell and Meyer quietly turn them down behind the scenes

I don't read that and take it the way you do. He is just stating the obvious. Everyone is all about feelings and crap. Coaches say your not good enough to start your not good enough to start work harder. Most kids don't stay and try to work harder.

A 12-0 Frost to a 3-9 Frost says “hello.” And TO wrote More Then Winning
I’m being sarcastic. How else do you evaluate a coach- by height?

Not good enough.
All I've gotta say is that if Campbell and Doeren are two of our top targets we're in trouble
