DC Levi Gallas and STC Jake Willrich are in charge for the time being. This would seem to indicate that OC Drew Thatcher isn't a candidate for the job and likely will be departing with Lynn.
I also wonder if naming co-interim coaches means an outside hire is the most likely outcome. If one of those guys wasn't good enough to be the solo interim coach, why would they be expected to get the job full time? But maybe I'm reading too much into it.
Adding to my list of candidates from last night, I wonder if any recently fired coaches would be considered for a fresh start? Williamson from Missouri Western or Anderson from Sioux Falls?
Another name I came across was Bryan Nardo. Currently DC at Gannon and was DC for Emporia from 2012-2019. His brother Luke also spent time as a GA at UNK.
Also, do I need to throw out the obligatory Jerry Partridge speculation? :)

1620 in Omaha had a segment discussing the opening at UNK. https://p.ftur.io/koznam/11719
They threw out a couple names that are well known in Nebraska. Bill Busch, recently unemployed after the coaching change at Nebraska. And Jeff Jamrog, head coach at Midland University in Fremont, NE in the NAIA.

They need to hire within. The DC Gallas would be my choice

I see the advantages of hiring from within to avoid having to reinvent the identity of the program again. Curious if Gallas would be your choice regardless or if that's with the assumption that Thatcher is gone. Besides program continuity, what's the case for Gallas taking over? I'm genuinely curious as an alum who unfortunately has to follow Loper athletics from afar, having moved out of Nebraska.
Not a fan of this Held guy. Not a great HC record and after the whole UNL failure by the whole staff I wouldn’t touch him w/ a 12 foot pole
big mistake if the hire doesn’t come from within

Thatcher or Gallas would both be great, I just think gallas is a more natural fit.

That does add an interesting twist to that situation.

Lunchtime update.
A second sports talk personality is saying the Held rumor has legs. https://twitter.com/joshtweeterson/s...JdPTCBl0A&s=19
Also, a tweet by a WTAMU coach, Chris Watkins, popped up on my feed. I noticed he is followed by UNK coaches Thatcher and Vaughn. Coincidence or signal of a couple guys who may be joining Lynn's staff???
