[ChocaEgg]

As far as the whole list goes...

I'd personally be happy and focus on these dudes. Everyone of them has experience at the P5 level.

1a Mike Gundy
1b. Kyle Wittingham
2. Gus Malzahn
3a. Mark Stoops
3b. Bronco Mendenhall
3c. Bryan Harsin
4. Matt Campbell

All good except Harsin and mayybe Bronco.

Matt Campbell - I think this is most likely to be the guy. Has reached his ceiling at ISU, and the jobs he's been eying (ND, OSU, and Michigan) aren't coming open anytime soon. Seems to do a good job adjusting to his roster (their 3-3-5 system was build from the ground up based on roster holes and has ended up as a differentiator in the Big 12).

Dan Mullen - Supposedly doesn't love to recruit, which would give me pause, but despite that Mississippi St. is in the top 10 in terms of CFB salary cap placement. Total ball coach though and I don't think we'd get out schemed on offense.

Lake Kiffin - Has had an impressive offense his entire time at Ole Miss. Adjusts to talent well. Think he would have a pretty natural transition to how to do business in Lincoln as his emphasis on NIL/transfer portal recruiting really mirrors what we've been doing this year. Supposedly has lot of baggage with co-eds that gives a lot of ADs pause, so I don't know that Turd would pull the trigger.

Dana Holgorsen - Has always run a fun offense. Deep Texas ties. Doug Belk is a rising star, and we'd be lucky to have him on staff for a couple years assuming he wouldn't just take the Houston job. Doug Belk would also be a name to keep an eye on if we strike out on more established candidates.

Dave Clawson - What he's done with Wake has been beyond impressive and no one has been able to figure out that offense yet. Every indication is he would have no interest in being in the Lincoln fishbowl though.

Chris Peterson - Hail Mary that he would want to come back to coach college ball again.

Jamey Chadwell - Have a lot of respect for him as a program builder. Took Charleston Southern from nothing to a playoff team and overcame serious talent deficits at Coastal to build a ranked program. Coastal is toward the bottom tier of the Sun Belt in terms of talent, but has been leading that conference last two seasons and looks to do the same this year. Brains behind his system, so you're bringing that expertise. Would look like the Nebraska everyone expected from Frost.

Jim Leonard - Strike out with more established candidates, and bank on a guy who can bring the Wisconsin system/culture to Lincoln.

Jeff Lebby - Get a Briles tree guy that will score a fuck ton of points. Gigantic question mark as a first time HC.

Would really like Dino Babers to go 10-2 this year in the ACC and he get hired. That way I can become an insider.

 

[Drue629]

I'm adding Deion Sanders to the list. A little unrealistic but he already turned around Jackson st and brought in a ton of talent. We'll have to see how this year plays out but if there's one thing Deon can do its motivate players.

I’ve got to talk to Gundy at a couple clinics - both him and his wife’s personality would fit so well here, awesome people.

Pretty sure he has family in Lincoln too IIRC

 

[Jim14510]

Let’s pretend for a second that Urban was actually interested. My biggest concern with him is that he wouldn’t have the enormous talent advantage that he’s accustomed to.

Realistically I don’t think he’d come here.

I bet it wouldn't take him long to get it.

 

[HuskerChemist]

what about big game Bob?

If Large Contest Robert wants N, you take him

I’ve been disappointed too many times put my faith in literally anyone. We can’t be forgetting that The Curse™ does in fact exist. The Curse™ would love for us to get him just so we can be trolled to even larger levels of disappointment. As if we haven’t already reached rock bottom.

The only way to end the curse is to rehire Tom O.

Remember when that selfish SOB retired at like 61 hot off 3 Natty's? Fuck that guy

Truly. Fuck that guy. He had 15 more years at a minimum left in him.

15 years. 12 natties. Handing it off to native son Lane Kiffin when he retired. Shoo wee they're in a great mood on Earth-178,654

I’m hoping we look like a functioning unit the first time we play after he dies. We will know the devil has claimed his soul if that happens.

Loving all this free press! Apparently there are a lot of reporters covering other schools who think this is a desirable job.
