About to get ugly, I like Mickey but he won't get the full-time gig. In fact he probably won't get another win, if he's lucky he may get one more.

He’s got no chance to prove it. He can’t catch a dam break. If CT is done we are done. That’s not on Mickey. He didn’t create this mess

Anyone is better relative to Frost so it is easy to say MJ is great in comparison, however he is definitely not as good as most here think.

...And the coaching carousel continues.

We aren’t losing because of X’s and O’s. We are losing because of Jim’s and Joes. Logan has a noodle for an arm and shouldn’t be on scholarship anywhere in FBS or FCS

I think Mickey brings a lot to table but he just isn't ready for the gig at this point.

I'd like to see him retained if possible but I'm doubtful the next guy will want him after he was reporting to Trev.

It’s not Mickey’s fault Frost refused to recruit or develop QBs. Give Mickey a chance to recruit and hire the best coordinators money can buy.

The best coordinators are not going to leave their current schools to come work for Mickey Joseph. We need to stop with the nepotism hires and go hire a real staff for once.

I want Mickey, he’s taking a team with dogshit lines and making us competitive. Hire his *** and let’s go recruit lines like he does skill players
Probably going to finish 3 and ******* 9. This same stupid argument was used to keep Frost around.

Idk how Mickey wins another game this year. If he doesn't then he won't be given a shot. No way.

I'm pulling for him, but he's gotta prove he can polish this turd enough to win. With CT out now, there probably went Mickey's chances unfortunately.

Hope Trev doesn't eff this up.

I think Mickey has shown us a few things:

1. Frost never should have gotten a 5th year. It is going to cost NU a bowl game. Again.

2. Most of Nebraska’s problems can be improved with competent coaches.

I’m not sure whether Mickey should be offered the job full time. I’m afraid the answer is close to being an obvious “No.”

But I appreciate the work he’s put in. They are playing better.

This is a sloppy, poorly-coached game. Valiant effort, but the Mickey audition is officially over. Hopefully the excuses will be as well. Maybe the new coach will keep him as an assistant and that is O.K. Time to move on though.

I'm over the Mickey experiment.
It’s not really an experiment. He is a placeholder. No matter what anyone told him or fans want to believe. He could’ve miracled his way into the conversation though. Hard to do with this trash though.

I hope he gets a head coaching job at the FCS level and goes on to bigger and better things from there.

We ain’t close and that’s the problem. We need talent and specifically at the most important spot on the field, QB. If you don’t think Mickey could get talent in, you dumb
MJ can get talent to come here if the new head coach decides to retain MJ.

Your not going to see it with this talent, but look a little deeper, I see it. Give him some talent and a good DC we win the West.
There isnt gonna be a west by the time any talent would get to lincoln

Sorry there ain't a coach in this country that could've got a winning record taking over this train wreck. Especially with Thompson going down! Our team is playing hard just has too many gaping holes!! Not on Mickey, he's doing a lot of very good things, our depth is horrible, see QB for example..

Mickey has now had 2 more blowout losses than Frost did last year. "They played hard and didn't quit" was the excuse used to bring back Frost this year. It shouldn't be the excuse used to give Mickey the permanent job.
