  "account": "Nebraska has dismissed offensive coordinator Dana Holgorsen following a string of four consecutive losses. Holgorsen, who joined Nebraska in 2024 after a successful tenure at Houston, was relieved of his duties after the Huskers failed to score 20 points in their last four games. Quarterback coach Glenn Thomas will assume play-calling responsibilities for the remainder of the season. Nebraska head coach Matt Rhule expressed his frustration with the team's performance, stating that offensive execution was lacking. As the Huskers prepare to face Rutgers on Saturday, social media users have shared their reactions to the firing. Critics have questioned whether the change in coordinator will actually make a difference, pointing out that Holgorsen was a highly skilled offensive mind and the issues might lie deeper within the coaching staff.",
