are some power 5 programs easier to when at than others -- clearly yes
when some other power 5 coaches are brought up - many dismiss because they haven't won conf championships or been elite at their current school

I don't think anyone with that kind of resume at a power 5 school is going to jump ship for NU

my question is what power 5 school coaches would we be excited about getting if they were winning 7 -8 games per year believing they would have more success at Nebraska
forget the specific coaches - just schools

2 that come to mind would be Northwestern and Vanderbilt

others?

All joking aside Oregon State is a vastly improved program under their new head coach who I think was one of their former QBs.

As a neutral fan of another Big 10 team who has always respected Nebraska and just created this account to piss off Iowa fans... You'll be back eventually. Nebraska is a true blue blood of the sport. Put up the money for a coach and they'll come to Nebraska.

Two of the three blue bloods in the East in Michigan and Penn State have also had their struggles at times throughout the past couple decades. Point being it happens to a lot of quality programs.. I fully expect Nebraska to be good again in the not too distant future. It's good for the Big 10 and college football in general when Nebraska is good so I wish you guys all the luck.
