Probably hiring Pederson was the biggest mistake.

Bo Pelini lit a fire under the defense in his first year as DC. Nebraska would have been awesome the next year. I would have loved to have seen that.

We don't know what would have happened, but it could not have been any worse. We have been foundering since his firing. Scott Frost has a big job in pulling us out of the muck. He'll get it done.

Frank knows Nebraska football inside and out Peterson was an idiot and should’ve kept Frank. Peterson never should have been hired at Nebraska He was a total and complete idiot

Firing Frank got us away from our roots and our identity. O & D schemes change but an identity shouldn't. SF is trying to bring it back now after all these years.

Pederson was one of two arrogant Husker ADs trying to make a name for himself. Moral: Don't fire 9 win coaches.

Callahan dismantled everything that made Nebraska, Nebraska. And almost 20 years later, we are just starting to get back what was lost...

HIRING Solich was the big mistake. He was over-matched. IMO, Tom Osborne shares a lot of blame for forcing Solich on the AD rather than having a national search. In 1997, NU could have had their pick of outstanding HC's. Now look at us.

It was bad... but not as bad as hiring Callahan. I dont know if Solich would have ever gotten over the hump... but Callahan sure as hell wasnt.

Right now, there is only recruiting. Offensive scheme is Scott's brainchild of Oregon speed and Husker power. That's not changing. Relationship is key in being able to bounce ideas off each other.

everything is now in place. The main thing we need now is talent. Don't know if he'll be a general recruiter or just for the offense, but the defensive front 7 on our team aren't exactly award winners

I'd like to see how his offensive scheme differentiates from Frost... if at all.

We got the puzzle pieces - now they have to be put together properly. Getting AM's performance back to being worthy of Heisman talk again would be a big first step. OL play is just as important.

Yes, recruiting is important, but we need to get the offense moving. Not 3 years from now, but starting this spring. We need an offensive coordinator NOW.

Yes he should

Being so involved on the O side, makes him less involved on the D side. He needs to be the CEO - approves the game plan and then let the OC/DC do their jobs during the game He can give input also.

Why have an Offensive coordinator! Trust in assistants if not then do the job himself in play calling. But lets see how his recruits perform as they start taking over. P & R recruits did not perform

He's admitted on many occasions that some plays should never have been called. Trust the OC he hired.

There’s so much to do as the CEO of the program...thats not to say he wouldn’t have heavy influence on the offense.

Personally, it is up to Scott They have worked together before so they will work it out. But I like the coaches calling the plays otherwise he just becomes a CEO.

I am back and forth on this. Why have an OC if he don'ts run the O? On the other hand, If Scott knows the play then have the OC give input but he calls the plays. Glad I don't have to make the calls.

Wait a year. Lets see how offense runs with Lubick running the offense; give the 2 of them chance to mess in the B1G.
