Hoosierinbham Posted September 18, 2022 Report Share Posted September 18, 2022 Urban might wait for Auburn. Much better recruiting area, and bigger recruiting and NIL budgets. Nebraska is going to require a specific recruiting blueprint and ability to develop players into a system. A Midwestern guy that embraces the Nebraska culture would be ideal. Urban would make a big splash, but not sure he'd be in it for the long haul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One name I was just told getting my miles in from an Ohio St guy close to Urban....he said keep your eye on Arizona St. I said what? He goes....easiest academic requirements going which means everyone can get in, Tempe is year round beautiful...and an Administration and President tiring on Herm Edwards. He said it could be a little sleeping giant out there where Urban could hide out all year long and show up for the playoffs once they expand to 12. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the bright side, Purdue isn't listed at all because, you know, the story isn't about 1-2 teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And iirc they do play at Oregon. That being said, the schedule is there for Washington to have a CFP season. The question will be can Penix stay healthy. Huskies have huge year under DeBoer and Nebraska is going to be making a phone call to him/his agent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all imagine guys want an inside track to the CFP because we know head coaches have huge egos. But we really don't know. Certainly the changing college football landscape makes these guys decisions more difficult, but he might like where he is just fine.

Steubenhoosier Posted September 20, 2022 Report Share Posted September 20, 2022 A guy who might be looking for an upward move is Dave Clawson, from Wake Forest. The ACC is certainly declining in stature, and he will never get the Deacons over the Clemson/Florida St./Miami hurdle. He's 55, so this would probably be his last big move in an attempt to play in a conference with better inroads to the playoffs. He certainly would warrant a step-up in salary vs. what he's currently being paid at Wake. He has done a great job getting a moribund program to be ranked. I could see him revitalizing Nebraska.

Seems like a very solid list. Leipold, Campbell, and O'Brien would all do well there. They would all appear to be a good culture fit and probably view Nebraska as a destination job.

Hiring Leipold would be absolutely reckless, regardless of his past ties to the school and state. That said, I couldn’t care less about what they do. They can’t recruit Texas/Oklahoma anymore. The program is becoming a fossil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
