Donny gone

It’s kind of unfortunate that it got out that he was interviewing. Interview doesn’t mean hired. I have no doubt we’re interviewing multiple guys.
If we are being honest the writing was on the wall when Dayton decommitted. After that I "***-umed" that Dylan was gone. Not quite sure about Donnie tbh but it was definitely in play. After this I'll be completely shocked if Dylan comes back now. Not even sure how I feel about it either. Part of me feel like he was our best QB. But I also feel like we were running an offense that was only gonna win so much the way it was constructed. It was like square piece in a circle. Hopefully with this OL coach the hone in on exactly what they want with the type of qB they want also.
Holla
Agreed. Nebraska was Dayton's far and away best offer. But when Rhule visited a couple weeks back, I think all of the cards were laid out on the table at that point. With the likelihood that his uncle and probably his brother were going to be leaving and the fact that he was sandwiched between two better QB recruits. Add it all up and it just wasn't going to be a comfortable situation for Dayton.
Something about the offense doesn’t sit right with me this year.I don’t know if it’s HC meddling with personnel or if it’s the disjointed nature of Satterfield/Glenn Thomas/Holgorsen and that Donny is just caught in the middle of it
Can you lead me a long a little further as to what was working against Uncle Donny?
I hated the game planning against Minnesota and the last 2 weeks with the backup QB and I don’t think it falls completely at the feet of Dana. Feels like there’s way too many cooks in that offensive kitchen still
I appreciate the info you’ve already provided
Passing in the red zone (especially fade passes) when the run game was working was just plain dumb.
It's uncanny, is what it is. I'm done trying to guess why, or what, or by whom. We're just a terrible program at the moment. I'd like to see us get back to winning 9-10 games consistently before I kick the bucket, though.
After watching Bama Ga, T Tech and BYU, and Ind and OSU, its obvious NU is miles away from competing with teams that just continue to try to win. Other than EJ, I doubt NU has one player that could even start for any of those teams, and definitely couldn't start for IND or OSU.
I think Dana’s propensity to call 5 pass plays in a row because he thought that was what the defense was giving us was a problem especially against Minnesota. His game plan against Minnesota after the first drive was questionable at best. He gives up on the run too quickly and we simply struggled especially at RT in pass pro. I love some of the stuff I see from Dana otherwise.
We really needed to get more out of Dylan in the run game as well. He could run read option well enough to pick up first downs. I don’t know if that was Rhule dictating that or Dana. I’m fine with Glenn Thomas. I think he’s a positive and I don’t believe Satt has much influence on game plan anymore
It’s blatantly obvious Dana nor his QBs trusted their piss poor OL this year
it’s no secret as to why - that unit sucked out loud
I’m glad nepotism seems to have fallen out of favor in Lincoln and everyone else should be, too
