No one is more confused on
the mixed-up coaching situation
than we are. From reams of copy
already written on the subject
and from some information
gleaned by our own efforts here
is what seems to b the present
status of the matter.
One thing is definite in the
coaching situation at Nebraska.
Biff Jones is not returning to
Lincoln in any capacity. His long
awaited letter of refusal, ad
dressed to the Athletic Council,
finally arrived and has been duly
recorded. The Biffer shows no ill
spirit, wishing the council success
in later endeavors, but makes it
clear that he is not coming back.
Speculation over the next Husk
er head eoaeh is rampant. A con
sensus of the various opinions
shows that Potsy Clark and Howie
Odell are the two most frequently
named possibilities. This line of
thoaght is further heightened by
the absence of two members of
the Athletic Conncil. John Selleek
and Ad Lewandowski, from their
campus office quarters.
According to some sources, both
gentlemen are in Chicago and so
are Clark and Odell. This may

mean something it may be a co
incidence. Odell, Yale coach this year, is
a young man a midwest product,
for he went to high school in
Sioux City, and has already es
tablished a place for himself
among the topflight football
tutors.
Potsy Clark, Husker coach the
past season, has considerable
backing for a return engagement.
He Is familiar with the athletic
setup on the campus and his abiN
ity with football players is un
questioned. The way he brought
the Huskers to a roaring late sea
son drive which enabled them to
finish their play with four straight
wins cemented his fame as one of
the nation's most capable gridiron
mentors.
Other men who have been
mentioned for the post are George
Sauer and Bernie Masterson, for
mer Husker gridders; Henry
Fmka of Tulsa, Bo McMillin of
Indiana, Lonnie Stiner, another
home state boy now coaching at
Oregon State, and even Bernie
Bierman, sage of the Northlands,
who concluded a disappointing
year at Minnesota.
No matter who is chosen, the
choice must be made soon. Spring
football practice is not too far
away, and the head coach must
be on hand to get a line on the
men who will constitute the Scar
let varsity eleven in 1946.
