DeBoer to Nebraska
Comments

I don't know how I got into this shitting on Oklahoma and Nebraska thing. I don't really care. If I was a big name coach I'd rather go to a program like UCLA or UW, at least until I have to wear a mask while game planning at a local bar with some hookers and blow. But that's just me.RaceBannon said:Over the last 20 plus years Oklahoma has hired 3 coordinators. Stoops, Reilly, and Venables. Switzer was a coordinator
2 things can be true
Maybe not in Canada though -
25 years ago.Canadawg said:1) Nebraska is a top 15 job
2) UW is a top 20 job
Nebraska pissed away their advantages a long time ago. If they were a smart program , they would be on the phone with George Kleeeeeoooovaakofff to make the the future PAC-10, the PAC-11, so they can again raid the Central Valley and Inland Empire regions of California.

UW is one of 13 that has actually made the CFB playoffs, plus we do have backyard talent. Nebraska doesn’t have either, plus their old system of non qualifiers and endless paid walk-ons has been nuked from space. On top of that, Nebraska pissed away their Texas recruiting ties by moving to the Big Sucks at Counting.Canadawg said:
OK is a legitimate blue blood what are you talking about? Nebraska is as well even though they've been bad latelyhaie said:
Neither Oklahoma nor Nebraska are getting anyone but coordinators or Mike Riley or a former player who had one great year in his entire career at the G5 level.Canadawg said:Well you could convince me it's on par with UW but that was my point anyways.
Not sure they're given enough credit though they have huge support from fans, boosters and upper campus. If Oklahoma is considered a top 10 coaches destination then there's no reason to say Nebraska is more than a notch below that. Unless you are just basing it off of their record over the past decade which is irrelevant

Good point. Oklahoma has lived off Texas recruits since Bud WilkinsonPurple_Pills said:

And still does. State of Texas is SEC now -
Nebraska thought they could take their share of that excess Ohio talent. Well, that excess Ohio talent would rather play in the SEC a few hours from home at basketball school Kentucky than they would Lincoln, NE.RaceBannon said:

Nebraska would be smart to put out feelers to the Pac-10/12. With the new playoff format, those who jumped ship too early to the Rust Belt may regret doing so.

Depends on their academic prowess. Jimmy is probably waiting for Stanford or Harvard to open upHouhusky said:I heard Jimmy Lake is available for immediate hire.
Can probably call in some investment bank auditor to playcall for him too.
Should fix things right up -
Whether or not Nebraska can be a power again is sort of irrelevant to this (poaching coaches). With the chasm in $ now happening between Big 10/SEC & everyone else, they can easily double salaries (maybe more). That includes assistant coach salaries, support staff, recruiting budgets, etc.Purple_Pills said:

With the exception of dudes like Petersen, who really aren't motivated by the money, every coach in every other conference is vulnerable to being poached. And the Petersens of the world are few and far between.
It's already started a bit, but it’s going to be open season soon. Like others have said, DeBoner hasn’t done enough to warrant that interest yet. But imagine if a Nebraska or Iowa was to call and say they’ll pay him $6M/yr and double his staff budget. You think he’s turning that down?
And even if Kalen for some reason loves UW and wants to stay, if he’s successful they’ll raid his staff.
Pray for that Big 10 invite… -
Between 06 and 16 Nebraska won 9 or more games 8 times. The frost era has been terrible but they are a good program and it's pretty ridiculous to try to explain away their future just because they don't live in Texas

Nebraska moving to the Pac-10/12 would make them more irrelevantPurple_Pills said:

in a 13 game season 9 wins is the new 7
