Who can Nebraska pull after they fire Frost? If he hadn’t just taken the Duke job, I think Elko could have done well in Lincoln.

Why would anyone go there other than money? Elko is a smart guy, so he has to know that it would be a bad career move even if they can pay you a bunch of money.
Mike Riley is with the New Jersey Generals now. Bo Pelini is 54 years old and unemployed. Bill Callahan is the Browns OL Coach and was never an HC again. Frank Solich ended up getting the last laugh. They'll build a statue of that guy at Ohio U.
Luke Fickell. Matt Campbell. Mark Stoops. Every single one of them could take their current programs now, go to Lincoln and kick Nebraska's ass. Why go there?
Maybe they can convince Jay Norvell? Auburn's AD is gone now and they're itching to get rid of Harsin. Why would Bill O'Brien or Joe Moorehead go to Nebraska? Jeff Hafley from BC, a Jersey guy? It's a job that needs someone who has been a college head coach, so you're reaching into the lower P5 tier or G5 like where Frost was at UCF.
I think you go for Harsin. He's going to want to get out with Texas and OU coming to the SEC anyway. You wouldn't even be buying low if you got him to Lincoln off of an Auburn firing.
