If a new coach thinks he had a better WR coach & recruiter to Nebraska than Mick
Then He’s already a terrible hire
Every WR Mick invests time into becomes a stud.
Mick will eventually become a really good head coach. His coaching contacts are so limited Thst it would be hard for him to build a staff. Although if he left tomorrow & took Busch, Conners, Applewhite & Beckton
He’d have the start of a pretty good staff at a smaller school
If he stays here when a new HC is hired, his salary probably should be raised a couple hundred thousand.
What if the new coach is bringing in Brian Hartline or Cortez Hankton? They are considered by many to be the 2 Best Wide Receiver Coaches in College Football. Or what if the new coach has a highly thought of OC who is also the WR Coach? Lots of factors. Nebraska Fans sure do get attached to all things Nebraska and in this case think there is no way we can do better than Mickey. I like Mickey and hope he stays on the next staff but not going to call a Coach a "Terrible Hire" if he doesn't keep Mickey. How do you know Mickey will become a "really good head coach"? We thought Frost would be a great coach and how'd that work out?
