And we are getting it corrected. Mickey still has a chance at this job. In my mind he has to win 3 more games.
Were they wasted? We called them because our new DC saw something he didn’t like. Bo did it all the time.
You use TO's to coach the players, especially if they are in situations that could be dangerous to the desired effect. Last night's TO for the defense was acceptable, they didn't like the defensive call for the situation so they called a timeout to correct it. The Rutgers game I saw no major issues in the TO's. You don't have a crystal ball to see the future. If you are in a bad defense or think a play will be detrimental to the game use the time out to correct it. If at the end of the game all 3 are still in your pocket, that is bad TO management.
This looks like any Frost coached team. Squeak by the **** teams, lose to mediocre teams, and get boatraced by any good team. That's exactly what has happened under Mickey. I don’t see anything that's improved.
Last time I checked linemen aren’t able to transfer in until January…… He’ll fix it if he gets the chance. He said it early this fall. We have to get better players. He really raised some eyebrows for speaking the truth after working with Frost’s roster for a few months.
2 Blocked punts in 3 games
I'd say the jury is still out on Mickey. But Husker fans claiming we must hire him because he beat 2 of the 3 worst teams in the conference are a delusional. He should be commended for getting the team back invested in the season and not quitting on things and he may be a successful head coach one day. But he has not proven that yet.
Nobody should crown MJ. But those saying he has failed are a pack of idiots.
I think the only way Mickey can prove it is if our AD gambles on him long term. It could be a huge payoff or a terrible flop. I’m ready to roll the dice. I think you give him another year with a 4 year incentive heavy contract with a very light buyout and see what happens. After the last decade what’s to lose?
Mickey said it best already. Nebraska deserves a national search. There's no reason to short that process. If Mickey is the guy, it will be obvious over the next 5 games.
He hasn't failed. He is an interim coach doing interim coach things. The idea that he should get the full time job is ridiculous though. Imagine after the last 4 years still wanting to bet the future on an experiment. Hell no, go get a proven winner!
The most annoying thing is people wanting to give the interim guy the full time job after we have already witnessed years of bad football. If anyone wants an experimental coach instead of a proven winner after years of losing, I 100% question if they are a real Nebraska fan.
List of proven winners that are a realistic hire?
For me, two big reasons Joseph won't get the job. 1. Little head coaching experience and Trev would get hammered for that. 2. If he chooses Joseph, it appears he isn't doing his job. Can't pick the guy who is already interim, people will ask well what the heck is the AD doing if he just picks the guy already doing the job? He had this much time and just said ah screw it I don't want to make a hard decision. It is largely about the AD needing to prove his worth and show he is performing his job. Hence, it really doesn't matter how well MJ does unfortunately.
All coaches at some point waste timeouts.
You decided from the moment Joseph was appointed interim head coach that you didn't want him as the permanent hire. And that's fine - it's a job that pays a fortune and there are a lot of potential candidates out there with more impressive resumes.
I think he overlooks the obvious, if you visit any other message boards within the conference everyone thinks Mickey is going to get the job with the exception of a few naysayers on this board.
Everyone in the conference is no doubt hoping an inexperienced WR coach gets the Nebraska job.
No more chance......Damn people do you think in any world Trev is waiting to see how MJ does? If he is he needs his *** fired also.
