[edit] Nebraska Assistant Coaches

Please, for the love of all that is good and right, can we stop adding names of the assistant coaches until there is a verifiable reference to do so? Coach Pelini has repeatedly made clear that he will officially announce the staff all at one time, and other than a couple of slips (Brown and Cotton) seems to be making sure this happens. An edit war is not the answer, but until the announcements are made and the names have a referenced source, I will keep removing them. Fjbfour (talk) 04:50, 8 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Coaching Staff

Shouldn't the coaching staff info be a part of the yearly team article, i.e. 2008 Nebraska Cornhuskers football team since that information changes every year? I don't think it belongs on the head coach article at all. For examples, see 2007 LSU Tigers football team and 2008 LSU Tigers football team. I think that's a better way to present the information. But I'm not going to change this article. If the general concensus is to leave it on Bo's article then I'm fine with that. Seancp (talk) 14:36, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

• I added the coaching staff when I expanded the page from its stub status and modeled it on the general layout of Bill Callahan (coach). On that page, the current coaching staff is listed in a similar table while previous staff members are listed below it. I have not looked at a wide range of other coach pages to see if that is typical or not. I don't know if there is adequate interest in this article to get more votes either way, but I think there is some value in having all assistants who worked under him as HC listed on his page. If the consensus disagrees, I will go along quietly. Fjbfour (talk) 03:28, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
  • This discussion made me realize that Callahan's page implied he still had active assistants at Nebraska. I have just edited his page accordingly, leaving the list as a historical record instead of as a list of current staff. To see what it looked like when I modeled Pelini's page on it, view one of the previous versions. Fjbfour (talk) 03:44, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
