Interesting.  I'm listening.  But, I thought Moos said no decision until after the season....

If an AD waits until the end of the season to get someone lined up they are not a good AD.

 

I know Nebraska basketball history so I would have thought a coach of this caliber would be a pipe dream. Still early and nothing is even close to final but if Moos pulls this off no one across the country will believe it.

 

Imagine beating UCLA out for one of their top choices. It’s a little easier to possibly believe when you look at the connections to the University and Lincoln.

...Phil jackson out of retirement?

 

(I'm joking.  I think.)

Welp they want petino and I ain’t talking dick. The only guy they mention on any of their blogs I looked at with connections to Nebraska would be hoiberg. And someone is doing a hell of a sell job if he’s interested

I mean he did say, "...but if Moos pulls this off no one across the country will believe it."

uh oh....have we hit the "I know a dude who knows a dude and I can't actually say anything but I'll pretend to do so" part of the coaching thread?

I actually kind of enjoy this part.  Hell last time I believe someone knew a guy who knew a guy who knew this guy named Jesus who said this guy named John Wooden was interested.

My cable guy source tells me it's Bill Walton.

I also heard that he's only going to recruit players from the Pac-12 region.

 

But I'm okay with that, because he makes it sound like that conference is better than the NBA.

[BigTate]

Personally I hope we stick with Tim Miles.

If we are talking coaches that UCLA is interested in and that have connections to UNL then that would be Hoiberg.

[bigFRED]

Hoiberg would be an incredible hire.

It was about one month ago that we got to the point that the LJS and OWH asked the athletic department if Moos was still employed so skepticism at sensational news seems like the prudent course of action.

Gary Sharp mentioned Tony Bennett being possibly interested in the UCLA gig. If that's who you've been hearing, I'll bet all my donuts against all your dollars that doesn't happen.

Bennett in that fishbowl sounds as likely as Steve Spurrier agreeing to coach somewhere where he can't golf in the winter.

Yeah, but that'd surely lead to playoff success if he did, though.

[hhcmatt]

The Bennett thing is national news, btw
