Triple option guy, and had Navy humming for a while.

Top choice for "run the ball" guy.

A Husker fan favorite because they seem to think we ran a triple option offense under Osborne.

Dead last in rushing yards per carry.

I gotta admit I was partial to KN.

102 - 73 as HC and 6-5 in bowls.

Led NAVY to their first victory over a ranked opponent in 23 years.

Ken lead NAVY to 9 consecutive bowls in his first ten years at Navy.

Lead NAVY to beat Notre Dame consecutively the first time in 60 years.

I love a good running game. And I love NAVY so I super biased. Go Navy!!!

Navy just beat a team with 0 completions for the entire game!!! Last time a 0 completion win for Navy was 2018 vs UCF.

Who says you can't beat anyone without the forward pass?

GO NAVY!

Move him from a service academy where the true triple option is really needed to a power 5 where the strong running game with play action would be more needed, he’d make the adjustment and make it well. If Frost goes, he should be in the short list to talk with. His coaching gets more margin into the game for his teams to have chances to win. Need that here.

Jeff Monken would be a better option. BYU's coach is Polynesian too, and I think he's better than Ken.

Funny quote about “triple option” that you are exactly right about.

To be honest, even Navy doesn’t run a triple option.

He had a great run, it seems his team is just now waking up after covid impacts to 2020 season. I don't see him getting looks anywhere else, and that is just fine. He should be a Navy lifer.
