I don't understand the vitriol about DH

The offense is in shambles and one of the worst in the nation. The head coach did what a CEO should do; identify the weakness and correct it.

DH is not an unknown commodity, he has a proven track record of developing QBs and his offenses were constantly in the top 15 of the nation. (This should have happened the last bye week)

Where is the downside? Rhule wants the seniors to go out with a winning record and give them something they have not experienced... A bowl game!! If you see this as a panic move or a bush league move, you need to open your mind to a coach doing what is necessary to correct problems before the complete implosion. Satterfield was not working and Rhule got fed up with him not calling the game plan

I salute Rhule for making the move and hiring a proven winner 🏆.
You got a like for this.

I'd rather see the ball ran, but if he can get us a bowl game this year I'm not going to complain.

Bingo.

Look we can hope that rhule can turn this around and that dana will help and maybe we will get to a winning record this year and next year.

But one thing is painfully obvious: Nebraska will never win a championship of any sort under rhule. We’ll never seriously compete.

So this all just feels like wasted time.
the odds are against NU ever winning a national championship again in your lifetime no matter who we hire as head coach. Rhule’s past history as a head coach in college would suggest it’s possible for him to get us in the post season tournament.

I can't recall a program playing 9 games and then bringing in a new OC/play caller off the street with zero history working with the head coach or involvement in the program for the stretch run.

a potentially unprecedented move.
I think that tells you how much heat Rhule is feeling right now. Right or wrong, the hype that's been built up from recruiting & the Chasing 3 productions, have the masses expecting a bowl game this year. With three games left I sincerely believe MR can hear all the chatter and knows that the honeymoon is over. It could turn into a hostile work environment if we can't win one more.

I, too think it was the right move by rhule and the best he could do right now.

People are upset about the whole situation, not necessarily DH himself.

That this move even had to be made
That this move is made now instead of before the season when much of this was already obvious
That he is not a smashmouth run game kind of coach
That our team is in this mess after everything we heard this offseason, same bs
That our 8 million dollar man cant fix issues himself and has to bring people in AFTER he failed to fix it which make it obvious he isnt the guy but we’re Stuck with him.
(I remember my fandom being questioned when I didnt like the wr hire)

By all means Im glad we are bringing in a guy who is cold and has a week to learn our playbook and players to try to salvage the season. Because thats how bad our current staff is.
Think about that.

Dawson Merritt is N!!

So Dawson is now an offensive player/recruit? Winking
We could try it!

Seriously though, some people called this and looking at their class I see why. Bama has 5-6 other LBs in this class ranked higher than him.
Good decision all around, we need LBs, he wants to actually play.
Also, he probably sees Shavers and McGahee playing early and knows he can too

I dont understand the second half of this post.
First it proves what kong says that this move is about rhule preserving rhule. Its like year two now never happened and he gets a fresh start next year. Hes proven only to be a loser here and its on him. The 8 million dollar man shouldnt need outside eyes to fix things or hire a coordinator 2/3rds through the year. Somwe better expect to see the full effect NOW, not next year.

Further, I dont expect dylan to be here next year. Its gotta be less than ten percent chance. Husker fans are again fooling themselves. Rhule is hoping to win these last three just to keep him. Because as of right now he gone.
What don’t you get? Yes, Rhule failed. Many of us have called him out on the Satt hire. Doing it to save his ass? Nope. Why not, because they aren’t going to fire him after two years and everyone knows that. So given that Rhule won’t be fired he still made the change and that is good.
I don’t know for sure if it will work but Satt was not going to work. When I mentioned full effect, that’s because we can’t learn Holgersons playbook fully until next year.. if he stays.
And yes, I expect Dylan to stay
I can’t know for sure but I think he stays

Wow.. a stalker… I’m flattered


My statements still hold, HH isn’t a very good QB. And us rooting for him doesn’t make him good.
He does look better this year than last. Maybe that will give you the warm and fuzzies?
Winning gives me the warm and fuzzies.

I have no idea how he looks this season compared to last. Too small of a sample size.

Given we actually have a QB coach and are a proud Developmental Program, I hope he’ll be better if forced into action.
