You know the Huskers will make a strong push for this guy. Right now I'd say he edges out Pete Carrol, but that's only because of the three Super Bowls and because the Patriots are undefeated right now. If Carrol somehow wins another National Title at SC this year, things could change. I'd say Bill Cowher might have a shot, but he's got to realistically be way down the list.
Feel free to add other names, but try to keep it realistic.

Vince Lombardi

Tom Osborne, he's already put himself in position to name himself the new coach. :cyclist:

Vince Lombardi
Lombardi definitely fits the bill, but age is a factor.
Again, keep it realistic.

Here is something that appeared about 20 minutes ago from the guy who first broke the story about AD Steve Pederson being fired and Tom Osborne hired to replace him. Apparently more is going on right now:
quote:
OK, Guys, there appears to be a “Phase II” brewing in Lincoln.
From corroborating sources who have proven very reliable in recent days:
It appears that Callahan, Cosgrove, Elmassian, and Wagner were all asked to resign over the weekend, again yesterday (BEFORE the press conference), and flatly refused, seeking not only the buyouts to which they’d be contractually entitled if fired, but actually seeking sweetened deals to get the hell out of Dodge. NU is working on a package whereby they would "resign", rather than be fired by Tom or Perlman.
There is a strong possibility that these four will be dismissed very soon. The interim plan has Shawn Watson as Offensive Coordinator, Bill Busch as Defensive Coordinator, and none other than CHARLIE MCBRIDE as interim Head Coach! Word is that George Darlington and Milt Tenopir might come on board on an interim basis, as well.
The remaining assistants: Gilmore, Rudolph, and Wyatt, along with Watson and Busch, would have opportunities for retention under a new Head Coach.
One of the goals is to identify which recruits would be retained, so that any defections could be replaced well ahead of signing day, in order to salvage the 2007 class.
Osborne apparently agreed to these plans in principle even before being named Athletic Director, and it could go down almost immediately, or could happen after Saturday's game.
Another notable tidbit:
Bo Pelini HAS been in contact with Osborne regarding the Head Coach position, and is VERY interested. He has reiterated his admiration of Marvin Sanders as a candidate for Defensive Coordinator.
Some bits and pieces of this scenario have appeared elsewhere on the internet, but the sources used here are separate, and have yet to be wrong about recent goings on in Lincoln.
Let me stress this: The situation is very fluid, and there are lawyers deeply involved, so it may not go down as quickly as we might wish, and it may not ALL happen, as negotiations continue.

Or as an olive branch of sorts. Please keep Callahan!!

I would love it. Pelini is a certified dumb f**k. I hear he can't get through the mazes on the back of McDonalds placemats in under 7 minutes.

I wouldn't believe anything you hear. No one really knows, not even Tom. I heard from a buddy back in Nebraska that Bo just ordered cable for his new house!! :bs: :nahnah: :woohoo:

QFT Bo Peep would be Nebraska's John Blake. They've yet to realize that they could do significantly worse than Slashahan.

Which means our coach after that will be a Booby Scoops type coach! One down, One to go....

Does anyone think that the HC from Rutgers would come to Lincoln and "Chop some wood" I would not have wood if he became the coach at NU.

Switzer --> Gibbs --> Schnellenberger --> Blake --> Stoops
Osborne --> Solich --> Callahan --> Bo Peep --> Coach from current KSU staff
Which KSU coach will save the Bugeaters? :popcorn:

Coach from current KSU staff
You don't have a coach on your current staff that could be a water boy at NU. :yikes:

Crap....forgot Scott Frost had been on our staff. Look out!!!!@!!!!
:ohno: :ohno: :ohno:

On second thought it's not going to be Bo Peep, he doesn't have the necessary ties to the program to fit in the template:
1. The Legend (Osborne / Switzer)
2. The Heir Apparent fired for being very successful but not as much so as the Legend (Solich / Gibbs)
3. The Outsider with the biggest name who could be conned into taking the job (Callahan / Schnellenberger)
4. The Insider hired to placate fans because only those with "ties to the program" can have success there (??? / Blake)
5. The KSU assistant (??? / Stoops)
The formula for success is clear, let's hope the Bugeaters aren't smart enough to recognize it.

Does anyone think that the HC from Rutgers would come to Lincoln and "Chop some wood" I would not have wood if he became the coach at NU.
If Miami couldn't lure Schiano to come back and chop wood for the 'Canes, there ain't a snowballs chance in hell he would leave what he's got to go to the corn.
I am going to laugh when they get to #4 on the list and start seriously talking about Jim Leavitt.
This is only the beginning.........
-
Coach from current KSU staff
You don't have a coach on your current staff that could be a water boy at NU. :yikes:
Appearantly you don't have a coach on your staff that can keep his team within thirty points of another Big XII team. Or keep Ball State under 600 yards of offense. Or keep fans in the stands for an entire first half.
*edit- Sorry, I forgot your win over ISU. I stand corrected.

My make believe pretend I'm a Husker administrator list:
1. Bo Pelini (< LOL he's not smart)
2. Jim Leavitt (< He hopefully won't even consider it)
3. Turner Gill (< May be Tom's choice and probably sucks)
4. Brian Kelly (< :ohno:)
Of these I hope Pelini gets it because he's retarded. Then again other programs may be interviewing him and why the hell would he turn down the Arkansas or A&M job to go to s**tty Lincoln where they already fired him once. I think the worst thing that couls happen is getting Brian Kelly because he is the next Urban Meyer.
-
Rich Rodriguez from WVU makes sense to me, I wouldn't want that to happen though.
:ohno:

The Nubb job is still an extremely desirable position, but I think Leavitt has it made at USF. Great stadium, beautiful surroundings, relaxed admission standards, a huge enrollment, and some of the most fertile recruiting grounds in the country within driving distance. They're basically Miami, but with better facilities. Also, getting to the BCS is always within reach in the Big East. Plus, he doesn't have every resident of his state second guessing every decision he makes. So that's like USF-200/UNL-0, if you're keeping track.

Yes, that would suck. He passed on Bama though so I don't think NU has a legit shot at him. But, yeah, that would suck.

I've never said he would take the NU job I was just saying what the average Nubb fan's list probably looks like. Also, UNL will pay a lot more than he gets now. He should lead them on and get a big raise out of the deal from USF ala Rich Rod and Schiano (he will do that this year if he's smart with some program just don't know if it will be UNL)
-
The Nubb job is still an extremely desirable position ....
I think you really have to qualify this statement. The nubby spot is certainly attractive to three groups of persons: 1) young unproven coaches trying to make a name for themselves; 2) over the hill coaches with solid but dusty resumes who are trying to resurrect dead careers; and 3) bugeater loyalists whose corn-colored glasses see only the glory days. The nubbies believe themselves far above group 1 and have just been burned by someone from group 2, thus my money's on group 3 or their John Blake being the hire. :popcorn:

I think I was just trying to convince myslef that Leavitt would never take the UNL job, more than anything else. FWIW- Leavitt's compensation (as of 2006) was just over 1.2 million/year. Slash's was just under 1.7 mil/year. I'd imagine that USF would match about any number UNL would offer, especially considering the sad state of UNL's athletic department financial status right now. :hope:
-
John Blake being the hire
That would be Turner Gill. That would put their program even more in the :flush:
-
Leavitt has a lifetime gig at a million plus per year, why in the heck would he even consider leaving for a spot where his likely tenure will be 3 years or less and the fan base will crucify him if he doesn't win 10+ every year?
-
John Blake being the hire
That would be Turner Gill. That would put their program even more in the :flush:
Gill would definitely put them on the OU template with the mandatory former player hire but we couldn't get that lucky. Could we? :hope:

Two words..
Charlie McBride.
OK, stop laughing.

Whoever the coach is, please retain Buddy Wyatt. He's the freaking grim reaper for head coaches. I posted this when Slash was considering hiring him:

Let me update his resume:
Resume
2007-present Defenive Line Coach Nebraska (slash to get FIRED in 07)
2003-2006 Defensive Line Coach Alabama (shula FIRED in '06)

Leavitt will never leave SFU. His program started from scratch, he is from Tampa, huge money available there.

The one thing about the Blake hire, he at least stockpiled talent....he was just too dumb to know where to play 'em....Schtoopies figured that out when he got there and turned it around fast.....Gill's not quite the recruiter Blake is.
One thing about it, if TO brings in all those old guys it'll be interesting.....I wonder if Callahan successfully destroyed the mystique to the point that most of the guys on the roster would even know who those dudes are? There's the potential for much in-fighting yet to occur... :dive:
