November 27, 200718 yr There is a better chace Mitch Barnhart's brother is the next AD at Nebraska than Turner Gill. When TO first took over as interim AD everybody was throwing out Dave Remington's name as someone who could eventually move into that position. But I don't see that one either.
November 27, 200718 yr There appears to be 4 candidates for the job, Gil, Pelini and it has been confirmed now that Wake Forest coach Jim Grobe has now been interviewed for the position. No word on the 4th one, could possibly be Brian Kelly but thats just me speculating.

November 27, 200718 yr Jim Grobe couldn't beat this down Husker team in his own freaking building. I'd pass. It was all down hill after we didnt go to anymore games huh?
November 27, 200718 yr It was all down hill after we didnt go to anymore games huh? Man, you're not kidding. Heck, as ridiculous as it sounds, the defense won that Wake game.
November 27, 200718 yr Man, you're not kidding. Heck, as ridiculous as it sounds, the defense won that Wake game. And the defense still sucked that game in my mind. So whats that say about Wake?:eek:
November 27, 200718 yr How many big recruits has NU lost over this? I know the #1 qb de-committed and maybe committed to Mizzou. What about the kid from Dayton?
November 28, 200718 yr Interesting. I've heard a few rumors that he's in Lincoln now. As the story goes, he flew in from Detroit because there are a lot of fans tracking flights...
November 28, 200718 yr UC has been asked and granted permission to talk to Kelly... So would it be the black shirt offense?
November 29, 200718 yr Sources: Nebraska narrows search to Gill, Pelini http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=3130463 Sources: Buffalo's Gill, LSU's Pelini at top of Nebraska's search LINCOLN, Neb. -- Nebraska's search for a new coach has fans obsessed and the media tracking airplanes. The rumor mill is churning full-speed and reporters are working overtime, staking out airports and using software to monitor the comings and goings of interim athletic director Tom Osborne. "It's absolutely crazy right now with people tracking airplanes and everybody having a source telling them exactly what's happening," Omaha radio show host Kevin Kugler said. "But unless you're the 70-year-old former football coach who's conducting this search, you really don't know." Sources told ESPN.com's Pat Forde on Wednesday that Nebraska has narrowed its search to two candidates: Turner Gill, head coach at Buffalo, and Bo Pelini, the defensive coordinator at LSU. After leaving a Tuesday afternoon meeting with the team, Osborne said he had not offered the job to anyone. Asked when he would name a coach, he said, "Hopefully sooner than later." He declined to say how many candidates he's interviewed. Osborne said he didn't address the specifics of the coaching search with the players. "I told them to go to class," he said. All that's known for sure is Gill is a candidate. His athletic director, Warde Manuel, has said so. Pelini has been interviewed, according to media reports that all cite unidentified sources. Then there's Wake Forest coach Jim Grobe. According to Sporting News and its unidentified source, Grobe spoke informally with Osborne.
November 29, 200718 yr what type of offense does Gil run? I would really love for the Huskers to get back to the "old" Nebraska style of football.
