and I think Riley's tired. I'm not sure if he's ever lived under a microscope before. His D.O.D. was written on his tombstone when he brought his assistants with him and I don't really blame him..I think most coaches do it. He just really had no idea
Dirk Chatelain had a good podcast with Scott's mom, Carol. The podcast was centered around Carol's own amazing athletic career, but they do talk about Scott and his experiences. Carol made a funny comment how she made Scott take speech class at Wood River, because they figured it would be a good way to learn how to handle speaking in front of people, and he would probably have to do that being a QB at a big college, etc. I just thought it was something interesting that she pointed during the interview.
Agreed - we've almost backed ourselves into a corner. The new ad will always be looked disfavorly on/questioned if Frost isn't the hire. Similarly, the new coach will always be compared to Frost - unless we get a homerun hire like Patterson which is slim to none.
I agree. Patterson isn't leaving TCU. He has everything he could want there now, and has among the best job security in the nation.
It's an exaggeration some, but the $3.5M is. Just meaning we need to quit talking like money is an issue around here. Said in previous threads that it's laughable that our HC is paid less than over 40 head coaches!
s#!t, he's angrier after their 30 point win, than our staff is after our 20 point loss.
In hindsight we should've hired him instead of Riley.
Yes thought we should have hired him instead of Riley. However, it wouldn't be all that bad if we hire him for next season and he was able to get 2 years of head coaching experience under his belt. So if Nebraska plays this right it all might work out for the better.
