Popular Post Huskerzoo Posted November 16, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted November 16, 2017 I'm breaking my own rule because the SF megathread has gotten out of control. We had members ask us to not moderatebe heavily, so we didn't and now it's just a place for memes, arguing, and discussion of the 1982 Penn State Game. This is a locked thread that I (and any other mods who want) can go through and update with posts that are actually relevant to the topic. The idea is that people can get most of the information re: rumors tweets and everything else without having to read 8 pages to find one new piece of information. I'm pinning it because I think it's a content area many people on the board are interested in. The megathread I'll leave to continue to evolve organically. I know many people look at the SF conversation as a playground because nothing definitive will happen until after black Friday. I appreciate that viewpoint, but there are also people who might want to come to the board for genuine conversation and information consolidated into one place. This thread is for those people. I can't promise to keep it updated but i'll try. I'm going to apologize in advance because it seems I can't copy posts from the other thread, just move them. I'd prefer not to move the other posts as it would make things confusing. As such, I'm just copy and pasting. I'm also including posts that I think add something to painting a picture about what's going on. This is by its nature arbitrary. I apologize if I missed something you feel like is important. 14 Link to comment
Huskerzoo Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 9/22 https://ucf.rivals.com/news/scott-frost-press-conference-maryland-week Watch this press conference prior to the Maryland game. Even at Oregon he spoke like this, not just like a coach, but like a head coach. Great demeanor, understands the media's role. Honest, humble, and forthright. These are things that are common to other press conferences he's had over the years, but this one is of course different because of Irma's tremendous impact on that program. Notice his priorities in life, even in the already stressful life of a college coach. If you want a guy that represents Nebraska and all of those intangibles we like to say collegiate athletics are about... On 9/22/2017 at 7:22 PM, suh_fan93 said: 1 Link to comment
Huskerzoo Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 I think he would, NU fans are not the only people high on Frost. Doesn't necessarily mean we should hire him either, but there's a lot to like imo. https://www.si.com/college-football/2017/08/24/coaching-carousel-preview-best-candidates-assistants-hires Quote 6. Scott Frost, UCF: A Chip Kelly disciple with NFL ties, Frost has gotten folks excited around Orlando after taking a team that went winless the year before he arrived to a bowl game in his first season. I’ll be surprised if Frost doesn’t get the Knights to double-digit wins before too long. He’s very marketable, but he also has arguably the top non–Power 5 head coaching job in the country right now, and he will be choosy.

Huskerzoo Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 9/23 Frost's resume is quite impressive regardless of Nebraska ties - Played under Bill Walsh, Tom Osborne, Bill Parcells, Bill Bellicheck and Jon Gruden. - Played quarterback in college // played safety in the NFL, was successful at both. - Linebackers coach and defensive coordinator at UNI (defense was ranked 13th in the country when he was DC) - Wide receivers coach and offensive coordinator at Oregon, where his teams played for MNC's and his quarterback won the Heisman - Huge turnaround in year one as a head coach, with a big time P5 win in year 2 (last year his defense improved roughly 70 spots in total defense nationally, 98 spot improvement in turnovers) - Won a national championship as a player, and a coach, and has coached in plenty of big time environments 9/24 Frost has been a successful coach every year as OC, DC, and HC: 1st year as HC took a 0-12 team to 6-7, the biggest win turnaround in the country (+6). Riley was -3. 2-0 so far this year. OC at Oregon (year, total Offense, scoring O, rush O, pass O) 2015 5, 5, 5, 36 2014 3, 4, 20, 10 2013 2, 4, 9, 21 One year as DC at Northern Iowa (2008) - total D 23rd, scoring D 9th. With his obvious ties/history at Nebraska, he knows the culture, history and attitude of Nebraska, and would likely stay for a long time. I would love to see him go with the Nebraska physical, tough, smashmouth attitude vs the Oregon fast attack. I think that approach also helps defenses. Today in UCF win over Maryland, Rushing 39-250 yds, Passing 30-178yds. 1 Link to comment

Firing Eichorst gets any hurdles to firing Riley out of the way. If this year goes as bad as it appears Bounds and Green will be justified with their decision and it’s on its way. This decision was made because of Riley and Riley alone. 2.) Bounds and Green are being influenced by the money behind the program, and that money has a high level of support to get Scott to Lincoln. 3.) Frost started the season on many up and coming coaching lists, Bounds and Green see that if they don’t act this year Nebraska may be too late to the party. His stock will only grow as they win more games, possibly end the year in a New Years 6 as the Group of 5 rep. Hence the, “We want to get started” quote in the presser. 4.) Not by mistake that they mentioned the mid 90’s in the presser. 5.) The word compete keeps coming up. You see Scott on the sideline, that dude competes. His team follows suit. The writing is on the wall, the only thing that is left is for the season to play out like most think it will. Money would think this means that the AD is Trev. I must say I am not crazy about that hire, but it seems the only plausible way we get someone who agrees to hire Frost. Unless someone like Joe Parker tells us in the search that Frost would be on the top of his list, then you hire that guy that will also hire the football coach the administration wants. Hiring Frost is a safe way to go with big upside. If he fails, not too many fans will be upset because he is a Husker legend and that route is worth the try to many. I believe that not only Scott gets Nebraska, understands the type of players it takes to win here, and the type of program it takes to win, but he is a good football coach that would be on the radar of major Power 5 jobs in the near future.

If I was a betting man, I would go all in that he will be the next head coach at Nebraska. I don't think there is another coach in CFB that understands the culture here, and what it takes to understand the winning tradition of our football team. 1 Link to comment
