Possible names for coach next year
- Thread starter WestCoastCornhusker2
- Start date
Let's start by eliminating all coaches who run from the shotgun on 3rd or 4th and less than a yard.
It has to be him if he wants the job. As far as coaches who would actually take the job, he has to be at the top of the list.
You have to at least ask Fickell and Campbell first.
After they say no...Dave Aranda, Jamey Chadwell, or Dan Lanning.

I had Hope earlier in the year (can’t remember which game, maybe Buffalo?), where AM actually ran 1-2 QB sneaks from under center. Thought Frost had shown growth. My bad, you can’t fix stupid.
Is this realistic with his contract buyout? Personally I'd take Gruden or Bill O'Brien, both available.
Fickell is a possibility.
Joe Brady?
Zach Taylor?
I do not believe Nebraska will get a current power five head football coach who has a winning record to come here and be our next head coach. Those days are over. We will have to take a gamble and hope it works out.
I would like Jamie Chadwell, but I think he will get a power five job in the southeast this year.

Urban is in year 1 of a massive rebuild in Jacksonville. He isn't leaving for a college job. Even if they are willing to hire Gruden, he is unqualified at the collegiate level. I'd prefer someone who has won in college.
Zac Taylor is #1. Far and away. Almost no chance we can pull him right now, but if Trev has any sense he will reach out to Zac first.
That is what you are going off of? The whole reason they were ranked in top 10 is a huge credit to Matt Campbell who has made Iowa State a regular winner. Other than his first year he has had winning seasons every year. At Nebraska he could do even better. Unless there is some big name coach who wants the Nebraska job that we don't know about, Campbell has to be the first person you ask.
matt campbell is the most overrated coach in the country
Sorry you’ve fallen for it
How is Nebraska's cash situation? Hiring someone like Fickell on top of paying Frost's buyout won't be inexpensive.
With how much you post here I’m surprised you don’t know it down to the cent
Good chance he gets fired this year. Plus I've always kind of gotten the impression that he liked Nebraska and would have interest in coaching here given the right circumstances.
Yet again we must rebuild, spray bleach all over the facilities. Follow Frost to the bank and rob his ***
I have no idea who our next coach will be or should be. I will trust Trev to hire somebody who can turn this around. There is no way Urban comes here. No way.
When someone mentioned firing Frost and giving Chinander a tryout earlier this season, it sounded ridiculous. But it doesn’t sound like such a bad idea to me now. But the extra $5 million that we would owe Frost if he’s fired before the end of the season probably means that it is not an option.
Nebraska has really good fans. It will take quite a while until your stadium looks like that of the Canes.

Urban was chasing tail and left his team. Gruden, et al are poison. He most certainly crossed the Mendoza Line,
If Scott's head rolls, which I doubt, Hugh Freeze I think would be an effective head coach.
93 - 39 if you include the 27 wins vacated by the NCAA for violations his assistants committed.
He's was 39 - 25 at Ole Miss including a win over Alabama.
Post Ole Miss he is 23 - 7 at Liberty.

Urban, Fickell, or Campbell should be our top choices. Next tier would be Bill O'brien, Joe Brady, Dave Aranda, Tom Herman. If you lose out on all of those guys, then Malzahn, Chadwell, Leipold, or Kleiman would be next on the list. All of these guys are much better coaches than Frost, and I'd be happy with any one of them.
What Hugh Freeze got in trouble for is legal now, so he really should be in consideration. Tough to argue his results.
