    How come he could not develop Sims?  He wanted him.  Thompson was pushed out for him.

    Sims has a history of turning the ball over,  coaches knew this.  Not sure if this is something that can be coached out of him,  the kid plays nervous IMO.

    Frost moved to the Phoenix area to lay low for a while. I would say he earned his millions of dollars through the work he did prior to coming to NU. He earned the contract which the college coaching market pays. Frost just didn’t do the work he needed to do to keep that type of contract for the long-term. You may feel that he didn’t work hard enough at NU, but don’t be mad about the money he was paid. 

    No he didn't work hard enough here, in fact I think he checked out after year one.  Am I mad about it ? Yes I am mad about it,   but the money part is the least of it.  Your correct in saying that he earned the contract that the college market pays,  it is what it is,  its all the other crap he was doing or not doing while he was here.  If I'm getting paid millions of dollars to run a football program I'm going to bust my hump to get that done.  Show up for practice sober and on time,  call back recruits, maybe try and look interested while on the sideline during games,  you know , coach stuff.  Didn't look to me like frost respected the job for most of his time here,  that's what irritates me.

    What happened to frost anyway ?  I know he dropped a bunch of coin on a house somewhere but no other news. Sittin back and enjoying the millions he Didn't earn i guess.

     Northwestern has irritated me for years. A modest amount of modern day success, and suddenly they act like they invented football. But my irritation with them and their ilk really elevated in the 2020 season, when Neb publicly stated they wanted to play a season and some Northwestern Alums decided to weigh in. I'm sure you remember these comments

     

    “I'm going to applaud the presidents for not listening to the likes of people at Nebraska, who are doing the biggest whining,” Wilbon said on Pardon the Interruption on Tuesday. “The Big Ten has operated for 116 seasons, mostly damn successful without Nebraska, which has been around for the last nine...You know what, I hope somebody on that call said to Nebraska’s representatives, even its president, get the hell out." -Michael Wilbon https://247sports.com/Article/Nebraska-Big-Ten-cancels-season-Mike-Wilbon-rips-attempts-to-play-no-matter-what-Scott-Frost-Big-12-150158177/

     

    And who could forget Christine Brennan. When the B1G decided to play a season, she called it "the darkest day in Big Ten sports history." I have to imagine some victims in Happy Valley, Ann Arbor, East Lansing, and Columbus might feel differently. She also added "This is the Nebraska-ization of the Big Ten. Who would have thought that when Nebraska and Ohio State and a few of the league’s other squeakiest wheels started whining about missing out on football, the Big Ten presidents would buckle rather than stand up to them?" https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/columnist/brennan/2020/09/16/big-ten-football-decision-marks-darkest-day/5793238002/

     

    Northwestern went on to have a sex scandal of their own Northwestern Cheerleaders Forced Into 'Commercial Sex Acts': Suit Couldn't find any comments from Brennan or Wilbon about this ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but man they sure do clutch their pearls and shout from the top of their lungs when Neb wants to play a season. Imagine that.

     

    And now this latest one. A culture of hazing players with coerced sexual acts, with a white board in the locker room to keep track.

    I recall Fitz thumping his chest about how great his "Culture" was last year in Dublin. Funny how things work out.

     

    Fitz will be out of a job sometime this week.

    Colorado could smoke us and still be bad.

    Yeah I get it,  Colorado is undersized and we are in rebuild mode,  but if Rhules trend in his college stops continues (2 wins, 3 or 4 ) I don't know about you all but I want one of those wins to be the buffs. My hatred for them runs deep.
