Is it pronounced "Geep" or "Geep"?

You had it right. It’s “Geep.”

I've been saying for a while that the Huskers are not going to get a name brand defensive coordinator because an experienced DC will not work in a condition with two bosses. A DC with experience will want to run the defense and that's not allowed at the Huskers right now. I just hope that he brings EDGE Trey White, defensive backs Eric Butler and Chris Johnson, linebacker Tano Letuli, and offensive lineman Ross Ulugalu-Maseuli with him.

And that’s on top of the usual issue with these “something has to change” coordinator moves: The top candidates have the leverage to avoid an inherently risky situation. It’s how NU ends up with Mark Whipple, a defensible choice based on his resume, but a late career guy who was clashing with his previous HC.

That said, NU might’ve out kicked that poor field position with Aurich.
