Associate Head Coach
- Thread starter Redmich

I would hope it’s used as the coach with key unlit on other than coordinator duties on overall aspects (team morale, over-arching strategy coming together, program mgmt etc). Guessing it wasn’t used that way though
Zach. C. is exactly what’s wrong with the Nebraska Sports Media, and the thought of TA listening to anyone like that is demented. Yes fans like wide open big pass happy offense. But what they like more is winning. Troy Calhoun. There is absolutely nothing prettier than a game winning , fourth quarter drive, that takes nine minutes. If you say, “people don’t like the ground and pound” that’s because they haven’t seen it in 24 years. He is the guy that says this cannot be successful in the BIG. Had Frost stuck to his word we’d be that team that we all envision, run the ball 45 times pass the ball 30 times. but you’d have a team that could kill the clock. I’m not saying he is the next coach I’m saying he offers a big option.
What are we missing, coach and player discipline, player development , straight talk, recruiting, and a game plan. All the academies offer that. We’ve talked about Eric B. for the HC position with no experience. These guys are loyal hard working and the most well disciplined staffs we could hope to find. They do more with less than any Power5 team in the country. You provide the right incentives for recruiting, winning, bowl games and these guys will get you to a bowl in two years. The local media are now saying this could take four years to get back on the right track. These guys could do it in two years, because they want it more.. I’m not saying he’s the right choice, I’m saying he’s a RIGHT choice, and only a knucklehead would dismiss that staff so frivolously.

It's mainly for pay and prestige reasons BUT the head coach defines the role. It might be defined as nothing but a title or the head coach can delegate some additional responsibilities. His choice.
$600,000 annually, plus a $33,350 monthly increase listed as a stipend. Also, bonuses for getting to a bowl game, winning the west etc.

It is in fact for pay and prestige BUT it means this is a guy you value and want to get or keep on your staff. It's one way to pay a WR coach more money because he's a great recruiter.
