Next NW coach?

[NebChicago]

Weird timing… do they promote internal immediately?

 

[SuperBigFan]

Hire Ken N (the former Navy coach)

 

[Husker Nsider]

Rumor mill saying HCSF 7 years $28M with heavy incentives. TFWIW.

 

[Baxter48_rivals204143]

Paul chryst

 

[Dean Pope]

If it's anyone who was there last year as all of that was going on, I doubt it.

I say that they give Lovie Smith a call. Let him take the team for a year. He basically took the Texans job as a placeholder, maybe he would do it again.

 

[Charlie Marlow_rivals363743]

Sandy Buda!

 

[WHCSC]

I’d look at Jim Leonard

 

[WHCSC]

They need to get a tough disciplinarian to show everyone how serious this is

 

[WHCSC]

Lovie Smith?

 

[dinglefritz]

Paul chryst

That might work but I bet they go young black coach.

 

[SickOfPractice]

Remember when Pelini was mentioned in every coaching search? At the beginning of his time at NU I always figured we'd lose him to another program eventually.

 

[NebChicago]

Carl?

 

[Sinomatic]

David Thorstad would fit in well.

 

[king_kong_]

who in hell would want that job?

bottom 5 gig in all of CFB and honestly maybe bottom 1

 

[bob5150]

Well, obviously they should follow NU's lead and get another decorated alumnus. They could chose from Darnell Autry or that's pretty much it.

Or they could go splash hire with Michael Wilbon.

 

[RedBaloneyPony]

Going to be a tough sell to an outsider. The only thing they can offer is a large contract

 

[Baxter48_rivals204143]

That might work but I bet they go young black coach.

David Shaw

 

[NebChicago]

How bad could this dry humping have been?

 

[V1nufanx4]

Matt Entz, NDSU

Two possible types

1. A young guy that is willing to take a chance (to become a millionaire and be set for life) while hoping by the 3rd year he can leave for a huge paycheck

2. An old dude, looking to pad his retirement (like What Whipple did)

… and Riley

 

[RBigredMax]

300 lb linemen …. Or literally ANY dude.

 

[SuperBigFan]

It is funny, for obvious reasons, but he would be an amazing hire for them.

God, I can't believe I just said that. But, to get a guy with that much experience and all the connections he has and honestly a guy that is "okay" with losing and is really good with the media, not that there is any NW media coverage.

I mean, he could probably guide them to a 2 win season.

I don't know if it's quite that bad but it's in the zip code. Made worse as Fitz could have had a better job for years.

Among the highest education standards in the country, zero resources, zero fan base and recruiting against literally every P5 program north of or near the Mason/Dixon

Pair that with historical ineptitude and you’re looking at the worst job in all of college football

 

[NebChicago]

If he hadn’t of made his players dry hump they may have never gone to the b10 championship

 

[Husker Todd_rivals48744]

I’d look at Jim Leonard

I don’t know who Jim Leonard is, but I would probably go with Jim Leonhard.

 

[TampaBaySkers]

Mikey Joseph just accepted the job.. congrats to him

Now you’re just being obnoxious. Riley won 3 more games than Frost did at Nebraska and he did it in 9 fewer games.

How bad?....with another guy, bad.

It’s between Nw, Stanford and Vandy. Stanford seems like a bigger deal and Vandy is in SEC. Anything NW has going for it over those schools?

 

[Mrs HuskerHusaria]

Including unlimited Margaritaville refills...

 

[Mrs HuskerHusaria]

Mickey Joseph?

 

[Truewooper]

I am hearing Art Briles? Seems like his kind of gig!

 

[phoenix4nu]

Mangino? When does Sandusky get out of prison?

 

[salsa red]

NW has a lot of money don't they? Will they use it for athletics?

 

[Huskers123456]

Mickey Joseph?

Mickey is inexperienced but far from young for a HC these days.

 

[SickOfPractice]

I don't like or hate Northwestern, for me they're "just there." And we can joke about their fanbase and it's size but I do feel for their alumni and fans - what a sucky place to be a month before the season begins.

 

[WHCSC]

Mike Hankwitz?
