The title of that article made me smile. It says Scott Frost COULD prefer the Oregon job. The reason: He coaches there before. That’s it! I wouldn’t worry about this Boneyard. There are a dozen people who could say he wouldn’t return to Oregon because he already coached there. Hang in there Buddy! I know these are anxious times!
If Scott is the class act he has been through the entirety of his career and can have us looking tough game in and game out everyone will love him for at least 8 seasons. Bo was an a$$, Bo got blown out by less talented teams on paper (Wisconsin mainly). If we don't lose by 3+ scores within the division and look like we could win every game we are playing in that will be a success for the first 3 seasons. 9-4 isn't too bad if the 4 losses are tough losses to solid opponents. Eventually he will have to get over the hump to elite, but no one will expect that through the first 5 years.
Actually as an Army Grad, I would be pissed if NU stole Monken away, just because of the harm it will do Army and I feel NU can get Frost without having to steal Monken. He is a perfect fit for Army and what he has done with them over the last 4 seasons has been remarkable. Monken gets Army and the true mission, he has really embraced that culture. He would definitely win at NU, just feel like NU can win with Frost as well and Monken can continue to build Army into a perennial winner like Navy has been recently. BTW, going to make it 2 straight against the squids in a couple of weeks!
They will wait after the Conf. championship game, but the deal needs to be at least announced to not start a complete cluster f#*k. If Riley is let go this Saturday the sooner the current players and recruits know Frost, or whoever they hire, is coming the better. Preference being this upcoming Sunday or Monday.
