We got our QB's coach!!

[Long Time Lurker]

How big is the network of people he has familiarity with at this point in his coaching career? How many people did he hire at Nebraska from that pool? He can be selective from his network and still fill most of his roster with people that he knows something about. And despite that, he kept Raiola even though he didn’t know him. He also didn’t coach with Bob Wager.

Good questions to be sure

 

[inthedeed]

NFL experience is great or whatever… but does he have any banking experience?

or golfing?
come to think of it the golf pro did a pretty good job

 

[RealTucoSalamanca]

or golfing?

That is for WR coach

 

[Laner2]

I thought Young was at Westside?

Yep, my bad.

Rhule coached White when he played for UCLA. Raiola, I believe, is the only coach on staff who didn’t have any sort of previous relationship with Rhule (that I can find).

I’ve made this point before and it still stands - great HCs hire the best assistants they can find. The others hire their friends.

Or their sons. Right?

Dan Young went from Creighton Prep hs coach to TO's staff. He seemed to do ok.

Milt and Dan Young with Dan Young as sp teams. Great combo

I don't know OldJar. I can't specifically remember any of his posts although I have seen his name float by.
But in conjunction with the policy of not revealing personal information about other posters, some of you need to quit posting where he lives. That's private information.

You're weird, man.

I really don't want to be negative about this as I was soooooo hoping for a QB coach... when Holgorsen popped up as a possibility I was genuinely excited... I'm sure this will all be good in the long run and many will get behind him as a fan base... if Rhule/Sat and NU's QB room is happy then Awesome!

That said, it kind of feels like when Garret McGuire was hired as WR coach... a bit of a "well... OK then" moment....

Isn't a coach from the NFL usually a pretty good indicator of being successful?

I would like to send him a fruitcake.

Would FedEx let you send @scopeandtime

Once they go in my Ignore Hopper, its pretty tough to get out. LOL
I'm from the school of you don't reward bad behavior, or in this case, horseshit opinions.

The only exception being I unignored Kong for a couple of posts that I wanted to discuss.

It was a joke, man.

He can have Charlie Marlowe . JK. I mostly love Charlie’s posts.

Where is Kong, with the “preacher Rhule” posts, etc.
Just thought of something. Ever notice that thall and Kong never post at the same time?

 

[dinglefritz]

Anyone know if he has credit union experience?

Under rated post but you could have added “or golf instructor”.

 

[dinglefritz]

Not a QB coach with Pittsburgh also only there 1 year. Not sure much can be gleaned from his time in Pittsburgh.

Mason Rudolf. Mitch Trubisky. Injured young Kenny Pickett.

I think he’s vacationing in the Caribbean without internet service.

He’s on a vacation..He’ll be back..

Why are you naming Steeler QBs?

 

[dinglefritz]

Why are you naming Steeler QBs?

People including myself have erroneously assumed he was coaching the Steeler QBs. Even if that was accurate, that’s the room he was involved with. I like Pickett to some degree but those other two are clowns.

Yes, Yes it does... and he's worked with some good QB's I'll give him that... I want him to be successful and perhaps I'm being too pessimistic

I think I got my hopes up on Holgersen being the guy. So this announcement is taking a bit to readjust to...
From a college standpoint I don't see the big names of QB's that Glenn's developed at a collegiate level like we see with Holgorsen such as Graham Harrell, Case Keenum, Brandon Weeden, Geno Smith, and Will Grier.

Development is key, he's done it with professionals and yes a couple College QB's so it'll be interesting to see what he does with a pair of Elite11's and a guy who's been tossed all over the place with a severe lack of coaching

That'd be a great life.

 

[RealTucoSalamanca]

Holgorsen was never coming here in an on the field coaching capacity. He was/is coming as an analyst if he doesn’t get a HC or OC position.

He’ll be back..

So just thinking (typing) out loud... if/when the new rule passes... NU could see both Glenn & Dana coaching in person with the QB's... likewise, TE's will still have their same coach as he's going back to the analyst title so nothing changes there either with the exception of a larger influence by Sat... Could all be really good

Dan Young was the Westside HC, not Prep.
