Who should our next HC be?

[Huskerfollower4life]

That's because we are all hoping it's not Doeren!  

I don't think so. We are up to 715 pages now of having no clue who the next head coach will be.

Good listen by Mitch on 1620.   Basically says Trev is waiting on Rhule and that decision "could be in a couple of hours".

Please no. Give us Fickell.

I don't really agree that this year's Nebraska team should have done the two things you mention in reference to Wisconsin. Those are always solid teams on fundamentals, and we aren't, backup QB for the opponent or not.

But Northwestern & Georgia Southern are not better teams than we are. Hell, Northwestern has one win...and it was against us. They'll go 1-11.

I dunno man. To me, losing when you’re up 11 in the 4th, at home, with the wind swirling against a one dimensional offense is simply inexcusable.

Please no. Give us Fickell.

Yeah I don't buy it.

I don't blame Joseph for the way this season has gone and our losing streak, but the Wisconsin game was a bad look. It felt like the same old, same old. Of course there is some interest in wondering what he could do with more time, better assistants, a recruiting class, as he has done a good job of keeping the players competing and still fighting for something (Except for the offensive line). I just think if he gets announced as head coach it won't be all that exciting because these past 2 months have felt like the same old thing on repeat, even though he largely is trying to hold together scraps.

A couple of hours??? Can you mention the time at which he says this?

Please no. Give us Fickell.

Is there anything to us seriously considering Fickell…  :dunno

 

[The Whale]

Please no. Give us Fickell.

Please no. Give us Meyer. Or Kiffin. Or Aranda. Almost anybody but Fickell.

Unfortunately my guess is Trev had struck out a few times already on who to hire and we end up with Joseph as head coach.

Your guess is going to be wrong.

Nothing concrete - not that anything here is.  But he's been floated as at least a possibility more in the last few days.  And not just in this thread.

Well technically there isnt anything on anyone. Just shock value once the hire is announced!!!!

 

[BigRedBuster]

I agree- some competent coaching will go a long way to solving our illness.   Not just the HC but across the assistant coaching spectrum. Frankly, no pun intended, Frank had the last fully competent staff in his earlier years.   Then attrition occurred.   Bo's staff was hit and miss and up and down.  About what you would expect from a first time HC. 

MR group really had issues and we spent the last 5 years watching SF staff struggle being on this level.

That is why I hope and expect the next HC to be someone who builds a quality staff of guys who know how to develop players.  I am hoping it is Rhule or Fickell. 

Then, just think about the horrible boneheaded in game decisions that have been throughout Frost’s tenure that directly lead to losses.

There has been nothing official with any candidate.   This search has been real good at keeping things quiet, everything is just rumors and speculation.

Guy is a Kansas troll.

So…he’s just a guy from Kansas. Makes sense.
