Before y'all spam the board with rando's tweets, take 10 seconds to look at the twitter account and think to yourself "is this fake or real?"

It's no wonder this country is in the shape its in when a good chunk of the population believes whatever random s#!t they see in the internets.

I heard that up to 80% of twitter accounts are fake. That might be fake too, but that's what I heard.

Callahan’s issue primarily was his defensive failures. He was too loyal to his buddy. The guy definitely fit the description of “grinder”. He spent considerable time in his office. Relating wasn’t his strong suit. Very good offensive line coach. Didn’t seem cut out to be a head coach though.

It's odd you say that because the year before he was let go, that same defensive scheme basically led us the to the BigXII championship game and if I remember correctly, kept OU in check.   That season the offense was OK, but not good, the defense was good/great.   They lost a lot of people and the D was in a rebuild year instead of a reload year which we were so used to coming off of Frank and TO.

It sounds like there might’ve been a lot more to it than coaching alone. That’s a relevant point. 

 
Honest 2 part question:

Part 1:

If 6-6 was the metric for Frost to hold on and return to his original contract is it considered safe to say that metric is also in play for MJ?

Part 2:

If MJ is bypassed and a new coach comes in, how soon would this fan base (meaning HB posters) expect a 6-6 metric to be measured?

(and wow, we've fallen so far now that a 6-6 record is a goal, that says something and it's not a "good" something)

I give the new coach a one year pass, and he better be in a bowl year 2.  This nonsense we let go with Frost having 4 losing seasons and getting a 5th is inexcusable.  Any coach worth his salt can get a team in a bowl in 2 years at a school with this much support.  No matter how the last coach left things, that's a bunch of baloney. That factors into not winning 9-10 games quickly, but not simply getting to a bowl when you play an FCS team every year and a lower tier G5 team also.

It sucks to say that out loud right!? This is a great question. I think first year anything goes but the baseline for year two would be 6-6 and above.

I didn't read it as 6-6 meant Frost was automatically going to be kept, 6-6 would just mean that he would go back to his original contract if retained.

I think 6-6 is a bad season.  I guess I would give a new coach a pass in year 1, but I would be asking serious questions if a coach can't be better than 6-6 in year 2.  You can normally tell by year 2 if a coach has "it" or not.

Let me get this straight. According to some of the fans, Mickey going 6-6 means he should keep the job? So a .500 record with this cupcake schedule is now good enough for NU football? How the mighty have fallen. Hopefully Trev doesn’t have such low standards.

We all know you are the color guard for standard and that standard is anti MJ but you chose to ignore truths too. Many on here look at how the players have responded to coach MJ's leadership and believe as I do, that had MJ been the head coach from the season's start the record would be much improved. In believing that and knowing what lies ahead I also believe had MJ been the HC from the start of the season (which mind you, would be his first year as HC) the team would likely be playing for 8 wins. So, I refer back to part 2 of my earlier question as evidence of and proof for fans to reasonably be excited about MJ. There will be a few haters (You obviously fit in here) but by a large amount most fans would feel excited and hopeful. MJ has done a fabulous job since being handed the reigns in a tumultuous situation. Hence the reason I think Trev has a very difficult decision ahead. I truly believe if MJ wins 5 games total while reflecting back on the NW and GS losses that a speculation exists MJ would have won as HC then and well.... simply stated, the program could and has done much worse then MJ in choosing previous HC's.

If Mickey weren’t a player from the 90s, his support would decrease exponentially. A good chunk of the fans can’t let go of the 90s, as seen with Frost getting over 4 years despite never reaching a bowl game.
