Poll: Was Moos a good choice?

[TarheelHuskerFan_rivals]

No maybe or let's wait answers.
What's your gut say?
Yes or no?

 

[rrthusker]

Absolutely

 

[Pennsyhusker_rivals246774]

Yes. Excellent hire

 

[barney44]

I think so

 

[NikkiSixx_rivals269993]

Yes

 

[maplesyrup95]

I’m in.

 

[dinglefritz]

Looks good. Certainly won the press conference. He's eloquent in front of the media and very thoughtful in his answers. In this type of position, experience is very valuable.

 

[YouGotSwatted!]

Solid track record, just too old

 

[c2o]

He's just old enough for Rimington to come back.

 

[GeauxBigRed]

Yes

 

[Wagasapi]

"I'm not a guy who ever changes coaches midseason," Moos said. "I don't think anything comes out of that. The ones who suffer are the student-athletes. They can lose focus, and remember, focus is so important. In athletics, you've got to have that focus. No distractions. Be the best we can be and we'll talk about it when the dust settles."

 

[Foosball is the devil]

I listened to him. I think he gets it.

 

[chicolby]

Glad to see a majority vote yes, but I can't see how people can vote either way unless you've had a chance to study his history more thoroughly.

Change always = hope. I am certainly hopeful.

His first hire will be his most important.

 

[Husker.Wed._rivals]

I didn't see the PC. Did someone ask him how Nebraska beef compares to Washington beef?

 

[Harry Caray]

Depends on who he hires

 

[YouGotSwatted!]

Depends on who he hires

If he gives riley another year (and then hires another riley-type) he'd be a failure

 

[Baxter48_rivals204143]

Age is some what irrelevant 50 years ago most men didn't live much past 68 simply because all the manual labor that was done you take a man 65 today he healthier probably closer to a 45 year old in 1967. Now mr rogers looks like he's 85 but stress will do that in a pressure job

 

[BigB87]

I voted yes, but am a solid maybe. Not someone I was looking for, but not a bad track record and I can see his appeal, so I'm not upset with the hire.

Yeah, that's where I am too. We'll hope for the best.

 

[otismotis08]

Abstain. All depends on his first (and most important) move.

I am confident. He also looks like a guy who will have you kneecapped if you drop one to a directional school, at home.

He'll chase you down in his rascal, no doubt

 

[OneBadHuskerFan]

Post this thread in a few years when it'll matter. Sure, right now it looks good, but none of us know. Just like the Scott Frost frenzy that's going on right now. Sure it sounds great, but maybe we should wait for results first.

We definitely didn't do ourselves any favors

Pretty sure WSU lost to E Washington last year.

 

[BigRedLegion]

How does everyone feel about Moos vs the hiring of SE?

Much better process and much more accomplished guy.

 

[CatColumbia]

Yes. Proven winner and program builder.

 

[stonesak]

Pretty sure WSU lost to E Washington last year.

Winning Pac-12 coach of the year one year and then playing for the division title in the last game of the regular season the next earns you a mulligan.

 

[YouGotSwatted!]

Yes. Proven winner and program builder.

And memorial stadium is a proven retirement community

This. If he does not hire Frost after this year, these poll results will completely flip.

Just got home from Seattle and listening to Seattle sports radio discuss Moos. Interesting to hear what they thought. General consensus - devastating loss for Wazzu. First Wazzu bombs a game, then they lose their AD. Moos seems to be very well respected (according to these guys - PNW Pac 12 sports) both from the job he did at Oregon (Nike $$$$) and at Wazzu, esp in bringing in Leach. Apparently there was friction between the President of Wazzu and Moos. Lots of positive praise for the guy (and these guys are primary UDub fans, so any praise of Wazzu is amazing!). Also predicted that Leach would leave Wazzu by the end of the year, and that Moos would bring in a new fb coach at year end. Didn't feel that Leach would be that guy.

Frost would get eaten alive against the coaches in the big ten.
