Yeah I saw that. Where is the Whip-lash offense headed? I was not a fan of his at Miami. He did a nice job at Pitt with that QB.

Whipple, Quinn, and Joseph would be a pretty solid upgrade.

I can't believe Quinn wouldn't be retained at Notre Dame if he wasn't wanted as LSU. Notre Dame's offensive line is always good....although maybe a little down this year.

I keep seeing Quinn’s name pop up. That’s legit?

If that’s a down year for us I would walk around hard as a rock 24/7.

He interviewed. I tend to think that's a lifeboat in case he doesn't get the ND job, but money talks.

Take this with the smaller grain of salt, Talked to a guy who is right more than he’s not and said Whipple isn’t the guy FWIW.

You don’t mutually part with an OC who:

-Headed one of the top offenses in the country
-Craved Clemson’d D up like a Thanksgiving turkey
-Coached a Heisman finalist

A candidate for Nebraska’s offensive coordinator job resigned from his current post on Tuesday, according to reports.
Pitt offensive coordinator Mark Whipple, who helped develop Kenny Pickett into a Heisman Trophy contender and oversaw a Pittsburgh offense in 2021 that ranked near the top of the country in several metrics, resigned Monday and is not expected to coach in the Panthers’ bowl game, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported.

The Journal Star reported Saturday that Whipple had been contacted by Nebraska and the sides are believed to have interviewed on Sunday.

There had been a question, though, about whether the 64-year-old Whipple would actually leave Pittsburgh at this point in his career. He is a Tarrytown, New York, native and has spent most of it on the East Coast, including two stints as the head coach at UMass. In fact, he hasn’t had a coaching job outside the Eastern time zone since 1984.

However, Whipple now reportedly won’t be returning to Pitt. What’s his next move? Certainly, he could retire after a good run with a tremendous quarterback in Pickett, who is off to the NFL. Also, a report from a Pittsburgh radio station cited a source saying that Whipple's decision to resign, "is family related."

Neither addition has been formalized by Nebraska, though that could happen Tuesday evening or Wednesday. Here's what we know.

I would be ok with that.

I would be ok with that.

I have no clue if he’s right or not, has been right on something’s and wrong on others but I thought I’d pass along since he’s a former player

Hard pass on Whipple? You're crazy. I mean, I like Anae more personally. But Whipple would be a massive upgrade.

Mark Whipple Wikipedia

As of 2:00 he’s currently the offensive coordinator at Nebraska according to Wikipedia 😂

Based on his 5th year QB with 50+ starts, Kenny Pickett turning into an NFL draft pick?

Yeah. noooooooooo thanks.

Also not sure if posted but Whipple and Frost both happened to be in Arizona Sunday-Monday.
