This guy must never unpack his bags as he has his 4th job in 4 years?
OSU to raiders now to NW as offensive coordinator.
Hawkeyes play NW in their shiny 850 million football palace next fall...and cats want to polish up that offense to add to the experience.

Glad their QB,stone,is done...he was decent.
The BIG is attracting coaching talent as THE preeminent college fb conference.

how the mighty have fallen, that was not news I was expecting given that he left tOSU for his former gig.

With the "10 assistant coach rule" being relaxed now, I wonder if they will hire a dedicated QB coach.

Then he serves as a "pure coordinator" who just watches film, calls plays, and runs the practices, no off campus recruiting duties or expectations. He would probably still do on campus recruiting, which would be allowed.

Chip Kelly needs to do well here or his days in high level FBS football may be numbered.

You were prescient. NU has hired Jerry Neuheisel as QB coach. I bet he handles recruiting and then replaces Chip after a year or two as OC-in-training.

What a great 1 - 2 combo.

Northwestern isn't messing around, this is a serious upgrade on offense.
