If this has been posted than I apologize but with the new playoff format it would be a lot easier to make it into said playoffs out of the BIGXII with ISU than the BIG out of Nebraska..
Same could be said about a lot of coaches who up and leave. None of us know these people personally. These people are like car salesman. Nothing surprises me.One doesn’t just win the 6th grade softball championship and then just up and leave. It’s not the way he operates. Not stressed at all about him leaving. He’ll be coaching his daughter at Gilbert in softball next year and coaching Iowa State football as well.
You gotta strike while the iron is hot. What if he has 3 straight mediocre seasons and the offers stop coming?This is going to sound very Boomerish but I would be very disappointed in MC if he went to Nebraska. I feel he could do so much better.
The iron has been hot and he hasn’t struck. Maybe he wants to be Bill Snyder.You gotta strike while the iron is hot. What if he has 3 straight mediocre seasons and the offers stop coming?
Ed would work. Dont they like coaches that get busy with inappropriate people?Nebby should be interested in ed orgeron or something. Or Utah head coach.

If the iron is hot then there are better opportunities for him than Nebraska.You gotta strike while the iron is hot. What if he has 3 straight mediocre seasons and the offers stop coming?
Means he would get anISU extension. We are satisfied with mediocreYou gotta strike while the iron is hot. What if he has 3 straight mediocre seasons and the offers stop coming?
At the Creighton game across the street, I had a decent talk with a Husker fan from Omaha, a guy about mid 30s early 40s. We took turns crapping on Iowa. Then, with a straight face he tells me NU will never settle for 9-3 or even 10-2 because NU deserves to compete for championships every year. True story.Bingo.
Can you imagine the hate spew for a 7 and 6 season ... when expectations that year were for basically a national title at Nebby with all the kids coming back.
I think if he had 3 straight 7-6 seasons his stock would go down a little. If he went 7-6, 4-8, 5-7 he probably isn't on someone like PSU, OSU, or like Notre Dame's list anymore. At least at the top of it anyway.Is mediocre still bowl eligible? ISU was 7-6 last year and sign me up for that with occasionally better for a long long time.
I could see him being intrigued about possibly restoring them to their old glory.I could see some interest that CMC would have in Nebraska. Probably in which game changing players that would consider transferring to a winning program now that Frost has been cut loose.
I say this with 100% seriousness, but…..they could do worse. Someone with the passion of Rhoads as head coach at a school that can afford really good assistants…..they could do worse.Hear me out:
Coach with midwestern ties.
A better record against big 10 teams than Scott Frost
Undefeated in Lincoln, NE as a head coach
Sources say "Iowa State coach has interest in the Nebraska job".
I am So Proud to introduce you to the next head coach of the Nebraska Cornhuskers:

Sorry I meant to infer that he would be getting players to come to ISU.I could see him being intrigued about possibly restoring them to their old glory.
