I think they will keep the coaches for lawsuit reasons for the length of their contracts
If (when) a new HC is hired there is no obligation to honor the assistant contracts.
This is so much worse than I thought we would look, although I don't know why I allowed myself some optimism.
The house needs to be cleaned and it probably would have needed to be cleaned almost as much even if Fitz was still here - OC/QB, OL, LB, strength coach. I liked the new hires at DC, DL, WR but unfortunately those guys will all go and I feel bad for them since they just got here.

There was no baiting. Bryant completely missed the window for that throw between the underneath CB and the safety. He under-threw the ball by five yards and needed more loft on it.
If LaMar Jackson transfers in we might be able to generate an offensive.

I’m headed out of the stadium…we got Schi(killed)! You know what the worst thing about this whole festival of incompetence? Gragg is responsible for hiring the next coach! Shoot me now!

All the more reason to fire Schill and Ggarg now so we'll have somebody better in place for next season.

Not a coach on the field today will ever be seen again at NU after this season.

This coaching is a sh@tshow. Bought these mercenaries who aren't worth a damn. We will lose 10 players after this season. Plus we won't recruit a darn thing.

Still no Sully
Braun won't pull the QB in his first game as Head coach. He decided to start Bryant and I think it is the right thing to do to give him a full game to prove himself worthy of another start. Based on today's offensive performance, I think every starting position should be subject to change ahead of game 2, including the QB.

It is very bad, no doubt, but we will lose more than 10 players after this season

But some fans say Anderson is the greatest thing sliced bread?
Agreed. Anderson has done nothing to develope an offensive line. He was fortunate to coach two exceptional OT's. Other than that, I've seen no promise in any of his units.

At least Sullivan can run out of the pocket. We finally get into the red zone. Let’s avoid a shutout. Don’t want to be Rutgers first BT shutout.
