Nebrasketball Coaching Hot Board

[Baron Winnebago]

Rick Pitino baby

He's at St John's and Nebraska's abortion laws make him a nonstarter.


Not because of his politics but because of his regular need for them

 

[Tonkasker]

I'm down for that. Kruger is at UNLV helping his son who's the head coach there. So we'd most likely have to find someone else. But I like that idea.

Didn’t know that, maybe Altman wouldn’t mind a $250k salary to run three man weave drills and live close to home. Lot of smoke he’s retiring this year or next

lol maybe we can get him in contact with Frost for his abortion contact

 

[Southendzonehusker]

He's waiting for the Cockeye job unfortunately

I would assume he’s waiting to go back to the plantation.

Also true. Pry whoever retires first.

We need to hire a young black dude with recruiting chops…

1) Drew Valentine (probably never come here, holding out for bigger job)

2) Kenya Hunter (he’s probly holding out for a better job too)

3) Armon Gates (background here, will be a HC sooner than later)

 

[Cowboy Kermit]

Names that will not take the job and should not be mentioned even once: Dana Altman, Darrian DeVries, Greg McDermott

Cowboy, what’s the attitude you’re hearing after these two losses?

What would your 'short list' be of realistic hires? Thanks.

 

[Cowboy Kermit]

the dream coaching carousel scenario for me is as follows

Craig Smith gets Minnesota
Niko Medved to Nebraska
Tim Miles goes back to Colorado State

Vibes are certainly not great

First names that come to mind
Niko Medved (if he doesn’t get Minnesota)
Bryce Drew
Jeff Linder
Drew Valentine

Coach that I know somebody representing Nebraska was reaching out to the agent of last year before Keisei caught fire to end the year: Steve Forbes

Steve Forbes lol go figure with Turd wanting to hire some boring old white dude to rinse and repeat what we’ve seen for 25 years… fits Trevs MO

Linder or Valentine wouldn't be bad, but I just don't know.

Drew already failed miserably at the P6 level.

And no way Medved comes here with the year CSU is about to have let's just be real with ourselves.

We're going to end up with Forbes, aren't we?

Cockeye is his dream job

I always find it funny how so many people say DeVries won’t come to Nebraska lol I can think of about $4M reasons he would. I know he is from Cockeye and I have been around him before when he was in Omaha. Passing up a P5 head coaching job when you are at Drake isn’t smart and he’s never coached at cockeye

He doesn't like DONU and knows he'll get just as good of an offer from someone else. He almost took the Notre Dame job just last offseason. He's familiar enough with this program to know not to touch it.

Everything I’ve been told is that there is no chance he’d take Nebraska. He’s interviewed for plenty of other P6 jobs but hasn’t gotten a new gig yet.

He’s a good enough coach he has the right to be picky, and I don’t think money is the end all be all for him.

Somebody representing Nebraska reached out to his agent last January to put out feelers (him and Forbes share an agent so that guys phone was busy)

For the record, he was the other finalist for K-State when they hired Tang. He’s come close
