Not good then, he can't screw these hires upIf Knighton is DL Coach, it seems like a Raiola-level hire. He has almost no real experience as a DL Coach or recruiter.
If he doesn't keep those two he may not have as many happy Nebraska fans as might have if he retained them. I have a feeling Alberts may have insisted at least Joseph be retained and if not I'm going to be one of those Nebraska fans that is not happy with this staff and with Alberts.I'd keep mickey and bill...them two seem to be the sharpest knifes in the drawer, then fill in the rest...
allthough I like alot of the other coaches like armstrong, fisher and rudd..(even pass happy whippel)
but that probably won't happen...what ever gets us to a bowl next year with a upward tragectory
Robinson is probably pretty happy at aTm. I figured that might be a tough pullLooks like no Elijah Robinson then if Knighton is coming to coach DL
Rhule hired a high school coach for his staff at Baylor. That guy is now a P5 head coach. I don’t think I’ll worry about Rhule’s hires.Not good then, he can't screw these hires up
It’s what coaches do. They hire people that they’re familiar and comfortable with.Am I mistaken in thinking most of the targets for assistants were with Rhule at some point in time? When Frost did this, it didn't work out and that has been a point of contention ever since. Just sayin
I was thinking the exact same thing, but thought I would wait awhile before the staff filled in to bring it up. Knighton doesn't seem to have much experience, a Riaola hire....but he almost lost vision in one eye from a bar fight and was a pro football bad ass, so there's that.Am I mistaken in thinking most of the targets for assistants were with Rhule at some point in time?

my attitude is whatever works, in the long run..all them guys get paid good so if they get canned they ain't gonna be homeless.If he doesn't keep those two he may not have as many happy Nebraska fans as might have if he retained them.

It's apparent to me that you're a dumbass. Amirite???Seriously. it is quite apparent that Matt was the 4th or 5th choice. I dont give a rats ass of what 7-17 (over 2 years) assistant coaches he keeps.
And that they know are competent. I actually think most of Frosts staff were pretty good other than Chin, Mario and Austin.It’s what coaches do. They hire people that they’re familiar and comfortable with.
Rhule knows him well. I suspect he’ll be just fine as a D line coachI was thinking the exact same thing, but thought I would wait awhile before the staff filled in to bring it up. Knighton doesn't seem to have much experience, a Riaola hire....but he almost lost vision in one eye from a bar fight and was a pro football bad ass, so there's that.
So as of today two reported asst coach hires: DL and strengthening. Does that mean Dawson and Duval are gone ?
As they both should be.So as of today two reported asst coach hires: DL and strengthening. Does that mean Dawson and Duval are gone ?
Gosh I hope so.So as of today two reported asst coach hires: DL and strengthening. Does that mean Dawson and Duval are gone ?
Some of the other hires probably just finished coaching last night. One might have been coaching today.So as of today two reported asst coach hires: DL and strengthening. Does that mean Dawson and Duval are gone ?
Duval was way too tied to Frost to keep him. And even though he was once the strength coach of the year before getting here, what does he have to show for his time at Nebraska? I’d say he’s as about 100% gone as anyone on the staff.The CB coach seems more certain than those two. But I do assume Duval and Dawson are gone eventually though.
Dawson too. Dawson was a guy Frost hired due to his connection with Chip. I actually think Dawson was a good coach. I’m not sure he was much of a recruiter though.Duval was way too tied to Frost to keep him.

Yep. I like Dawson. His notable recruits are Ty Robinson and Rhamir (I’m pretty sure). But yeah, tied to Frost and he’s older.Dawson too. Dawson was a guy Frost hired due to his connection with Chip. I actually think Dawson was a good coach. I’m not sure he was much of a recruiter though.
Strength coach is almost always gone. It might be the most important relationship and assistant to the head coach.So as of today two reported asst coach hires: DL and strengthening. Does that mean Dawson and Duval are gone ?
Rhule is pretty pragmatic and I think he would value their recruiting chops. Busch would be a tremendous guy to keep on as an analyst if nothing else.Yep. I like Dawson. His notable recruits are Ty Robinson and Rhamir (I’m pretty sure). But yeah, tied to Frost and he’s older.
No new coach comes in and keeps a bunch of existing staff. It’s pretty common for a clean sweep. So I won’t hold my breath for Busch or Mickey.
I hope so. Busch has shown his value. I’d love him to stay on as a special teams coordinator or an assistant coach.Rhule is pretty pragmatic and I think he would value their recruiting chops. Busch would be a tremendous guy to keep on as an analyst if nothing else.
Does a fat dog fart?So as of today two reported asst coach hires: DL and strengthening. Does that mean Dawson and Duval are gone ?
Regardless, Busch is staying on in Lincoln. He's settling down with his new wife who is a realtor in town. He could probably have his choice of high school football coaching jobs or as an analyst position with Rhule. The guy is pure class and a Husker through and through.I hope so. Busch has shown his value. I’d love him to stay on as a special teams coordinator or an assistant coach.
Yes. But only the fat ones.Does a fat dog fart?
I think he’s an under appreciated asset.Regardless, Busch is staying on in Lincoln. He's settling down with his new wife who is a realtor in town.

IF Rhule wants a smooth transition he would be smart to keep Busch on staff and retain his terminology. Starting over from scratch on O or D almost always sacrifices some winnable games.He has so much to offer, look at the job he did running both the defense and special teams for 3/4 of this season. I hope he has a full time job on staff.
This is what you want a Strength Coach to look like. Not like that beer gut Duval was rocking.
Well, i realize that but it was Frost who was blastes for doing that as I recall. I know his assistants didn't thrill me at all.It’s what coaches do. They hire people that they’re familiar and comfortable with.
Rhule has a longer collegiate track record than Frost. Ironically IMO IF Frost hadnt brought Chin with him he probably would have won some of those one score games. Chin was awful. Some of his assistants were pretty good IMO.Well, i realize that but it was Frost who was blastes for doing that as I recall. I know his assistants didn't thrill me at all.
Fisher was pretty good IMO and he was known as a good recruiter. I think Benton’s results were pretty average.Gosh I hope so.
Frankly, outside Mickey and Becton, they can all be shown the door. IMO. Applewhite did ok I guess, but I won’t worry about losing him.
Walters, Lubick, Chinander, Ruud, Dawson, Verduzco, Duval, and Austin suckedRhule has a longer collegiate track record than Frost.

Not sure how much Busch has worked with st since he took over DC but st have been better since Busch became DCI hope so. Busch has shown his value. I’d love him to stay on as a special teams coordinator or an assistant coach.
