I am not saying he should be a flaming rear end about things, but I like he way Saban deals with things. He has created the Alabama way much like the Patriot way via Bill Belichick, who taught him how. Take your craft serious, teach the boys life lessons along with football, demand discipline, do charity work for the community, don't embarrass the program or the college, tell the occasional joke, but don't be afraid to answer stupid media questions in a way that makes them know their question was stupid. I don't want a golly gee approach and know that would not be Frost's style anyway. Give the kids awesome new cars from your side business, they love that! Quote Link to comment

But don't throw stones too far. Our legendary HC allowed Christian Peter and Lawrence Philips to remain on the team despite horrendous actions against women. That would have never been permitted these days. Quote Link to comment

I think Frost is better than Bo, so there is no reason to expect anything less. Your analogy works until you realize that Frost will not have a Suh or Amukamara on his 2018 team. I think frost will be great here, but let's not start off with expectations of immediate dominance. Frost deserves a little patience IMO and I hope he gets it. Quote Link to comment
Warrior Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 (edited) I said 2 let's face it the West is the better side to have a quick turnaround. Also NE isn't the dumpster fire he inherited at UCF.. Edited December 1, 2017 by Warrior Quote Link to comment
HuskerPowerVA Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 The first two years might be a little harder than some think. New system and finding the right recruits to execute it. Of course this year's class will not count. I see being very competitive with Wisconsin in two years but perhaps not overtaking them until year four. Quote Link to comment
HuskerPowerVA Posted December 1, 2017 Share Posted December 1, 2017 Has there ever been talk of realignment in the B1G? This question has as much to do with the West staying weak as us getting better. Quote Link to comment

How do you know Frost won't have players like Suh or Amukamara? Suh didn't do much under Billy. How many under-performing players do we have now that will blossom under Frost? I bet there are several. We have seen a couple players get worse under Riley. Frost will get the best out of players. Quote Link to comment

I bet you are right. We have the players to compete for the West right now. However, I did choose year three because I don't think we even have the QB on the roster yet that will get us there.

I bet the team is playing much better at the end of 2018 than the beginning. I think this is the year we put IOWA back in their natural position in the world. 1 Quote Link to comment

We have to have a better conference record than them just one time (and everyone else), or the same conference record but beat them one time, and we are sniffing the CCG. True, I would love sooner but I'm not getting my hopes too high till I see the product on the field. With Frosts track record I will most likely be wrong but I just want stability and consistency. I wanna see him succeed with multiple recruiting classes. Quote Link to comment
adc7236 Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 I think its fun to dream of the day we get to the big game, but right now I would just be happy with an OFFICIAL announcement that he is our head coach. 1 Quote Link to comment

Apathy Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 I voted for his 3rd season but I wouldn’t count out year 2 Quote Link to comment
Oade Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 (edited) Until proven otherwise, he's going to have alternating 6-win teams and undefeated teams every other year. Edited December 2, 2017 by Oade Quote Link to comment
Making Chimichangas Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 I voted for the first year, but that's not my expectation. I want to see the players play well, be put into positions to have success, and for them to play hard each snap, for four quarters each week. They do that and I think that takes care of everything else. Welcome Home Frosty!!!! Quote Link to comment
