Nebraska reportedly adding a top young SEC assistant to staff Doug Samuels 5 hours ago Daikiel Shorts and Dana Holgorsen previously worked together at Houston, and are now set to reunite. According to multiple reports today, Shorts is set to leave Kentucky to join the Nebraska staff as receivers coach. There, he reunites with Holgorsen, who just yesterday inked a two-year deal to call the Huskers offense for Matt Rhule at $1.2 million per year. A former 30 Under 30 selection by the AFCA, Shorts spent the last season in Lexington working with the Wildcats receivers. The two years prior, he worked under Dana Holgorsen in an on-field role working with the receivers, a role he was elevated to after two seasons as director of player development for the program. Before joining the coaching ranks, Shorts played receiver for Holgorsen at West Virginia, where he was a team captain his senior season. He led the Mountaineers in receiving in three of his four seasons with the team.

Setting the scene for the Purdue Coaching Search John Brice One of the most disappointing stretches in modern history of Power Conference football now is over at Purdue. The Boilermakers are officially seeking their next head coach, after parting ways Sunday with Ryan Walters, the promising defensive coordinator unable to translate that skill-set into head-coaching success. Purdue has resources, solid history and facilities; a fan base that wants to win. Who makes sense? Who can navigate the challenges at the school -- men's basketball is king; a natural recruiting base isn't overflowing with talent; the Big Ten is more arduous than ever -- to reclaim the consistent, very solid success of Jeff Brohm's tenure, and Joe Tiller some years before him? Here's the latest that sources are sharing with FootballScoop: Runner-up for the job the last time it was open, Tyson Helton is a legitimate contender once again to become a Power-Conference head coach. Hindsight always is 20/20, but Helton is arguably Brohm 2.0, and he's a natural fit for the Boilermakers. Additionally, sources tell FootballScoop that there already is internal support for Helton to helm the reins of the program. A Gainesville, Florida, native who played collegiately at Houston, Helton is a perfect six-for-six in leading his Western Kentucky program into the postseason as the Hilltoppers head coach. He was hired at WKU following a one-year stint as offensive coordinator for former Tennessee coach Jeremy Pruitt. All Helton's done in his six seasons in Bowling Green, Kentucky, is win eight or more games in five of those six years to go along with four postseason victories in five appearances; the Toppers are awaiting their bowl bid for this season's eight-win campaign. Ohio coach Tim Albin, a Midwest staple doing flat-out remarkable work atop the Bobcats program, is another name to watch -- if he isn't first hired by Charlotte. As heir apparent to Frank Solich, Albin continues to make Ohio one of the Group of Five's most consistent winners -- and talent developers. His Bobcats roster has been raided via the NCAA Transfer Portal in recent years; they just keep winning. Charles Huff is another potential fit for the Boilermakers; he's guiding Marshall in this week's Sun Belt Conference title-game and is the coveted choice for Southern Miss's current opening; they've had in-depth discussions. Army coach Jeff Monken has the longest track record of potential Purdue candidates, and sources with direct knowledge tell FootballScoop that Monken has definite interest in the position. Monken, a Peoria, Illinois, native whose family is synonymous with football in that state and across the Midwest, has Army with its third season of 10 or more wins since 2017; Monken also knows the rigors of being at a school with strong academics and some limitations in resources and recruiting. "There's simply no question Jeff could find the right players and staff to make Purdue a consistent winner in the Big Ten," a source who's been in recent contact with Monken told FootballScoop Monday afternoon. "He has a plan." If Purdue wants to tap into its more recent success, Brian Brohm is the current Louisville offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for his brother, Jeff. He's got obvious ties to the school, the region and a strong offensive acumen, which seems a key in this process for the Boilermakers following the dismal Walters experience. UNLV head coach Barry Odom is potentially in line for a significant new role, and he's expected to be in the mix at North Carolina, as well as potentially at West Virginia and Purdue. He has UNLV one upset-win against Boise State from a landmark College Football Playoff appearance. Three more coaches worth monitoring in the Purdue search are Liberty head coach Jamey Chadwell, Memphis head coach Ryan Silverfield and Missouri offensive coordinator Kirby Moore, who's expected to be a head coach much sooner than later after his strong work atop the Tigers's offense and after turning down the opportunity to hop to a more high-profile offensive play-caller role in last year's cycle.

Jamey Chadwell in the running for UCF... Neal Brown being considered at Appalachian State and might be in the mix at Charlotte.

Yeah, Dabo's shtick is old and useless...

Wonders if Texas is more conservative on offense early due to Banks and Ewers injuries... Also asks is jawja just a bad matchup for Texas?? Is this jawja team just Texas' kryptonite??? Georgia vs. Texas Preview, Prediction & Bets | 2024 SEC Championship

It's great that tech once again missed out on another conference championship game. B12 still doesn't run through Lubbock...

Wish the conference championship games were moved to home stadiums... 😋

So how is Sark gonna get more production from our WRs this game???

Would be funny if Deion is tired of the cold, and just takes the UCF job... 😋

Great to see Joey hasn't stopped whining...

June 2024

Been missing more from right hash... Hopefully Coach Banks and Sark figure this out -- might even make sure more attempts come from the left hash. C'mon Bert !!! 🤘

I know Ewers has been up and down, but big thanks to him for transferring to Texas... It's made a huge difference in our roster and results the last two years -- great players want to play at Texas again!!! 🤘

Curious to see how Sark plays this championship game?? Not sure Texas can afford to be conservative especially with our terrible punt team... Texas is a 2.5-point favorite over Georgia in college football Week 15 odds for the game, according to BetMGM Sportsbook. The Longhorns are -145 on the moneyline. The Bulldogs are +125. The over/under for the game is set at 48.5 points.

Correction, extra 10 or 11 days off. First round starts in 2 weeks...

Yeah a few weeks back when Arbuckle's name was brought up on a few blOU podcasts, they included the WashSt QB transferring to blOU in their expectations. They compared it to what Curt Cignetti did in his 1st year at Indiana..

Probably won't be popular, but I won't mind if the committee adjusts the final CFP rankings just enough to get more cross-conference 1st Rd games... In last weeks example below, it's dumb to have tenn/jawja and pennst/Indy matchups.

Well, guess the cyclones getting to Big 12 championship saves a little bit of face for "the left behind" teams of the Big 12... 😋
