Coach “Woody” Dvoracek

[Cash68847]

I still think the defense can be a top 20 unit this year. Early season total defense numbers are usually distorted because many Power 5s are playing bad non con opponents. Nebraska is one of only seven Power 5 teams to have played only Power 5 opponents.

And while the 354 yards allowed per game may place them in the 70s currently. They are actually top 40 in yards per play allowed, top 40 in yards per pass attempt allowed and top 10 in run defense/ yards per carry. All those numbers are going to move up substantially as they add some non cons. Other total defense totals will come back to Earth, and Nebraska's number will get better.

Keep sacking the QB, keep making plays behind the line of scrimmage, keep stopping the run, keep limiting big pass plays and chunk plays. (I know CU got some but Nebraska won't face another QB and WR corp that good all season.)

As for San Diego State, is Brady Hoke planning on leaving? He is likely looking at another 9 or 10 win season.

With the style of offense Nebraska wants to run they probably should be, but they must get a lot better or they will put a lot of pressure on the defense.

I’m not sure White wants to live in California.
He’s super conservative & family oriented
He wanted out of NY bc he hated the liberal policies of the state

Hope so. be nice to have a long time DC like McBride or Parker at Cockeye or Bud Foster. If you're already making a million + in Lincoln I can see why someone would not want to take on all the extra bullshit that a HC has to do.

Smart guy. They are all cesspools and it’s not debatable. ask Texas and Florida

If he does well here, there will be P5 opportunities for him in the future.

Edit: I guess it's P4 now?

Is he really on record saying stuff like that?

Has Dvoracek gotten behind the mic at all? I try and keep up with these pressers but I swear I’ve never heard his voice lol

Wasn't the rumor that Hausman left because he had heard who the LB coach was going to be and didn't like it?

Dvoracek has knocked it out of the park so far. Rhule put together a young staff but guys like Dvoracek are making him look smart about it.

60 snaps in 2 games, 7 assisted tackles and 2 solo tackles. Hope he's enjoying himself up there 🤣

This LB coach could end up being absolute gold if he can coach like he is doing and land the LB recruit from Westside.

I hate to break it to you but that's tied for the team lead while splitting snaps almost evenly with the starter.

It's ok to say he would have been a good one to keep.

But it's also ok to be a tad bit salty knowing how the defense looks after he left and picturing him in it

Isn't that exactly what we are talking about...?

 

[Baron Winnebago]

Would have been a nice player to have, but his departure had nothing to do with Dvoracek and no one will ever convince me otherwise

Maybe so, I'm a little retarded before 9 am usually

It's a better story than Frost should have got more time or Michigan offered me more money though.

Or Frost got shit canned and Hausmann started looking elsewhere and it wouldn't have mattered if KING KIRBS was walking through the door

Never heard of her.

I'm pleased with the development happening at all 3 levels. It appears that the DC and all 3 assistants work well together and have the defense improving. There is enough overlap between the DL and the LB and LB and DBs that the coordination and cooperation among them all has to be high to have success. White has the defense improving and the assistants working well together.

And, IIRC, none of the assistants are Tony White "guys" are they? Weren't they all Rhule-connected guys hired by Rhule?
I know White brought a couple guys with him but they are anaylists types, aren't they?

That makes the staff cohesion even more impressive.

Also, had to insert "Tony" into that first sentence so I wasn't asking if any of the assistants were white guys.
