Hiring Meyer sends a message that we are serious about being a top program again. How does that make the fanbase stupid?

Wanting Urban doesn’t make us stupid
I would take him also
It’s just a fun site

having said that - I don’t think Russian bots or hipsters are trying to sabotage the program nor do I see how Urbs steel work is in any way relevant to his coaching ability unless they plan to put him to work on the new facilities

Defensive Coordinator​


(after gruden call)

Urban: Trev called. Offered me the Nebraska job at 12 million a year. I know I just took this TV gig, but it's not really my thing.
Shelley: Of course it's not. You are boring to listen to. You belong on the sideline. You're not Lee Corso.
Urban: I know. I know..
Shelley: You know, we could have the biggest house in Nebraska.
Urban: And I could get past the whole Jacksonville nonsense.
Shelley: You get on the phone right now and tell him you want the job.

Winning is such a 20th century thing. It's much more important to virtue signal on the Internet and to not offend anyone. So say no to Urban. Urban man bad

Urban Meyer or Mediocrity? Hell, mediocrity would be a huge step forward for Nebraska at this point.

How many years was O'Brien at Penn State? He had major sanctions to overcome. If that is the move I wonder if it will be Callahan or Carroll.

I would wait for the right hire. I know that may hurt recruiting in the short term, but it will pay off.

Urban will have a half dozen offers better than Nebraska in the next two coaching cycles

As much as I want to see him come to Nebraska... I think the most likely scenario for Urban is Notre Dame.

Can U get the badasses into ND?? Seems like an outside shot at best to me, for the same reason Kelly left...plus I don't think the coach is going anywhere unless the wheels just absolutely fall off.

I should have worded my comment better.. it may be a few years down the road. But I think Meyer would jump at the chance to go to ND

I find it ironic that there are so many morally outraged NU fans that can't accept the idea of hiring Meyer, while these same fans will assume that a Catholic school will jump at the chance. Bottom line, if you want a good coach you go hire them. Meyer's personal flaws are very minor in the scheme of things.

Yep agreed
