HC is recruiting. Callahan use his NFL coaching constantly to sell his ability to help the recruit get to the next level. Pelini was DB coach for Frisco, LB for New England & Green Bay, again he used his NFL coaching in recruiting. It's a huge plus for NU who desperately needs a few more difference makers if they are going to improve very much.
We also need an INOVATOR: If we're super lucky and get MR, he doesn't have a set of schemes he's married to, he studies the conference & then makes hires that fit what he believes is the best fit for who he can recruit. He's big at being very sound fundamentally & that doesn't happen with an overly complex system. The players will probably love the schemes. It may take 2 or 3 years to build, but should be a great hire.
