[Husker] Norvell

[Scott R Lawson]

I can't fully buy the argument about Norvell looking to add to his coaching resume by calling plays at UCLA. The World Herald article mentions Norvell had interviewed for 3 other college head coaching jobs this winter (Iowa State, Boston College and North Texas, which I had forgotten about), and now he decides to take the OC job at UCLA? Wouldn't most folks wait until another HC job opened up (and it's never a very long wait) before moving to UCLA, but of course, for all we know the folks at the other 3 schools may have told him they wished he had some playcalling experience. I don't know, I just think there is more than meets the eye here, but of course we won't ever know unless Norvell or someone else close to the situation elaborates. I certainly hope this is not a trend (people leaving).
