Mark Whipple to Nebraska?
- Thread starter ivan brunetti
- Start date
really would have liked to see us try and sway Saban away from Bama but this was easily the second best option IMO
Great QB coach. Just beware, his offense is one of the most pass-heavy in the country. If you wanted someone who likes to establish the run, he's not it.
The ol' Urban Meyer "Family-Related" retirement?
It seems odd that he would have interviewed with Frost on Sunday and be out recruiting last night if it was truly family-related.

Not too old to steady the ship. If he stays for five years at Nebraska, that would be a very successful run.
I think the fact that he interviewed with us and was recruiting a QB transfer last night is a stronger sign than a reporter saying sources tell him it’s a family matter. It’ll be interesting to see what unfolds though.
This is about the time Sir Yacht normally posts something like:
"My sources (i.e. reading message boards) tell me Whipple has agreed in principle to a 2-3 year deal with Nebraska and will be named their OC within the next 48 hours"
Then, if we name a different OC tomorrow, he never addresses the post again.

We always complain about development. That future NFL QB was there in 2019 and 2020, so it seems as if Whipple developed him. The kid even said he wouldn’t have returned if it weren’t for Whipple.
As opposed to...... sucking out loud with a very experienced QB like we have done the last 2 seasons.
True… and that’s a problem for any coach we bring on. I’ll take this guy over most others.
It would be cool to have a QB coach that can take a kid from the level they are at when they arrive on campus and raise that level as they gain experience.
The last time that happened here was_____________
No doubt he's a good QB coach. I'm one of those guys that would prefer to be 60-40 run/pass or heavier run on average. Attacking linemen going downfield. With his experience in NFL and with qbs I would tend to think he'll more balanced or more pass than my comfort. But there's more ways to skin a cat so let's see what he can do. Hopefully he starts by bringing in a top notch QB
Establishing the run doesn't mean **** to me unless you have great running backs, OL, and defense to back that strategy up. Bring on the Air Raid!
