Georgia OC. Former Sunbelt head coach and NFL OC. He made Baker look like a good QB when he was at Cleveland. Makes 2 M as Georgia’s OC. Discuss

I prefer him over his cousin Jeff Monken.
I don’t know much about him, but as with any coach, my concern is who they can bring for staff and how they can recruit.

Just pointing out one guy none of us are talking about who could be a very good hire

 

[litespeedhuskerfan]

I would take him, but I question if he'd pick up the phone if we called. Great name tbough, I like it.

 

[Agent0024]

I remember listening to him on Sharp and Benning talking about how important the strength coach is.

Sold!

He turned Southern Miss around pretty quickly I think.

Been talked about plenty

Most of the Monken talk was his relative Jeff

Hire Todd and he’ll bring a stud QB in on day one.

 

[oldjar07]

Better than Mickey for sure.

 

[BrighteRed24]

Do you know something op? Do we have a legitimate shot at him?

 

[cubsker]

I remember people got all butthurt ten years ago when they filmed Okie St practices and Todd liked to swear a lot. I thought it was hilarious.

Nope but if we can’t get Rhule or BOB I think he’s a legit name to watch. The last national championship coordinator we hired won a lot of games at NU. IMO he’s a better option than any of the Big 12 guys we’ve discussed at length

This guy has come up plenty. It’s just hard to find because there’s 47 thousand coaching threads

 

[Husker.Wed.]

Does Trev have a flight scheduled to Florida on Tuesday? Donald Trump is supposed to make a "big announcement" on Tuesday, maybe he will be introduced as Nebraska's next head coach. Then instead of being "45" he will be "32".

Would still be better than the last guy

One thing about it. He wouldn’t have kept Chin around past the first year…..

I'd take him over Rhule and BOB. Wanted Smart when he was a DC at Bama. I see TM having the same trajectory

 

[huntered]

yes

 

[dinglefritz]

yes

One problem is that Georgia will possibly be in the national championship game.

Keep MJ and Busch on board and they can recruit

Their real DC is their head coach.

It better look good. They get the best players in the country. Wouldn’t have that luxury here.

One thing I’m beginning to believe is that maybe we need a guy without any hint of failure. That pretty much would eliminate any of the guys we discuss most frequently. Too many of the early favorites have had mediocre to crappy seasons this year. I know we shouldn’t judge on a single season but if we hire Campbell there will be a chorus of WTHs echoing across the state

it seems to me what we need most is a guy who can feel good about living in nebraska and going to work each day in a positive manner, who's football intelligent and can communicate well...like dr. tom

maybe todd is that, I don't know enough about him to say.

 

[WV Husker1]

Let me ask, we need discipline, we need a strong defense and we need a leader, all the academies provide that. We haven’t had any of that crap since Pelini and all of them have won more games in THE last five years then Nebraska. And all of them have an offensive identity. so why not consider one of them?

I started thread last week “Monkens”, where I said bring Todd in as head coach and his cousin Jeff in a D Coordinator.. both seem to recruit well and they would definitely bring back discipline! ( eliminating errors and establishing focus)
After posting, PennyHusker said hell no and a few others followed suit. Todd is more than Qualified and Jeff does well at a military academy where it’s tough to get players! It would be tough to get both, but keeping Mickey , Busch, and Applewhite with the two Monklins would be a great start..

That hasn’t stopped you from posting uninformed nonsense before.

I can agree with everything you say, however I would lose the assistants. If Mickey is going to blame the players, he’s been coaching them for ten weeks, NOW he says the players aren't Good enough. Monkens are not going to say they need six or seven deep in the receivers room. Nebraska will never get there, they need four tops and use those scholarships somewhere else.

The kids love Mickey..and he can bring in talent..so shy let him go? Mickey brings them in and Monkens coach them up..😁

Unmmm Todd is the OC at Georgia. He would want some receivers…..
