“Probably Should Fire the Coordinator”: Dan Wolken Asks for Major Change as he Raises Question Marks Over Nebraska’s Recruitment Process
Last month, the Nebraska Cornhuskers finalized a deal with quarterback Anthony Colandrea to return in 2027 for his final year of eligibility. He joined Matt Rhule and his team this year and took over as the team’s starting quarterback.
Dan Wolken, a Yahoo Sports College Football reporter, has called for significant changes within the Nebraska Cornhuskers program, specifically targeting the coordinator. This comes after Nebraska's recent four-game losing streak, following a 24-13 loss to the Illinois Fighting Illini. Wolken's comments come at a time when quarterback Anthony Colandrea, who is set to return for his final year in 2027, has joined the team.
Despite starting the season with a five-game win streak, the Cornhuskers have struggled in the latter part of the season. Wolken questioned the decision to re-sign Colandrea, arguing that it is a sign of belief in continued success, but also suggested that the coordinator should be replaced. This is due to the team's poor performance, which Wolken believes can no longer be sustained with the current coordinator.
