I agree, they need to build their program. This is what I was expecting from Tennessee, I wanted an 8-4 or 9-3 season. There is a great chance we may even beat that.
I will say that with the B1G West being down, it might not be as difficult as we assume. They won't see Michigan and Ohio State that often so that really puts them up against Iowa, Wisconsin, Illinois, Purdue, etc. Those teams are not recruiting powerhouses and several of them are struggling right now just like Nebraska. It really isn't a bad spot. Many of the criticisms about Nebraska could have been said about Tennessee 2 years ago.
I'd say Nebraska is a bad spot right now.
Unless they are going to be extremely patient with whoever they hire, your back is pretty much against the wall right away there with a fan base with some pretty lofty mostly unrealistic expectations. The B1G West is really just a interchangeable cluster of mediocrity, I don't really see anyone from that bunch ever being a major threat on the national level.
A guy like Lane would be taking a major risk jumping to a job like that.
