Maybe he should grow a mullet and a mustache.

Thats a great way to put it. He took over the worst program ever and turned them into a powerhouse in the late 90's. It also took him almost 10 years to do it. He himself has said that he couldn't replicate now what he did then because nobody would give him the time he had to do it

It's been said time and time again, but you almost have to recruit some juco kids until your program is established. Also I know this has been said but Frost's first recruiting class was really a wash. Everybody called his first year "year 0" because of the disadvantages and the state of the program. Most of us are extremely frustrated with how the first few years have went, but there's a reason why they've been poor. It's a combination of poor coaching at times, recruits flaking out, and much more. There is a reason why it's a common thought that it takes 5 years to rebuild a program. I understand that it's not that way everywhere but if we can Frost after this year, how attractive is the Nebraska job? We have no choice but be patient and see what happens

Even if they are not true, just him being here and leaving is enough reason that his teammates would not welcome him back with open arms. He left them and they won't forget/forgive that.

Plus our last game may have been against a poor rutgers team, but a bunch of freshmen and sophomores played pretty darn well against a P5 team. I'm usually a pretty optimistic guy, so it's no surprise I think the line has a bright future and we'll see improvement next year

David is extremely popular amongst other players, and is finally starting to get the national recognition he deserves. When it comes to Suh he has played at a extremely high level for a long time, but I wonder if his history of dirty play will hurt him when it comes to receiving the votes he needs.

If thats true then good ridenance.

I think maybe he is self aware enough to understand his faults and realize he's not head coach material. That's a total assumption nut definitely a possibility. That or he knows if he gets a job its probably a rebuild and he'd rather win as a DC instead of going through that

Does this mean we can sign another kid this year?

I agree! If that really is his mentality then he can elevate the WR room with him

I don’t think I’ve seen Frost publicly call him out but maybe I missed it. Andy Reid does a similar thing with his OC as far as play calling though

Whats he supposed to say? We sucked and I'm not happy with our current players? That's a good way to lose the locker room. I'd say that Frost is a lot more honest with his players in small position group or individual meetings then he is when he talks about them to the media.

I went back and watched Luke's HS hudl highlights, he appeared to throw a decent long ball. I'm just really wondering if Frost had so little trust in out WR group that he more or less refused to let out QBs throw it deep

There’s no question that Frost has recruited the OL well and it’s been a priority. One thing I think we forget is that his first recruiting class was a hodgepodge and most recruits weren’t really guys he’d recruited hard for an entire season plus. A lot of those recruits don’t fit his scheme all that well and the product on the field shows that. If I remember correctly many people wanted to call the first season year 0. I still believe that if this staff gets 5 years then the product will be considerably better. If not then it’s probably time to move on. But hey it can’t get a lot worse, so give the guy some serious time to fix it

I think you're right. They're going to be young still, and that's why I said they will struggle early on, but I think they have the talent to be pretty dang good by the end of the year and in the future. I do feel like Frost has put an emphasis on building depth on the O-Line

they’ll struggle early, but hit their stride towards the end of the year and we’ll get into a bowl because of it!

I totally agree, if we string him along at QB for 4 years, that's a scholarship that could have been used elsewhere. IF Luke is leaving this is totally on him and not the coaching staff. I'd be surprised if he is becomes a legit QB at even the G5 Conference level

I would think that if Frost was honest with LM then he's probably gone. That's super frustrating because I think his ceiling is considerably higher as a WR then a QB. I could see him having a dynamic impact similar to Wandale had the last two years if he'd make the switch.

this could turn into another Micah Parsons situation pretty easy. Every gets their hopes up while knowing in the back of their heads that there’s no way he’s coming to Nebraska

Ha ha touché, but absolutely not. The only time I've ever seen a game in Manhattan is when T-Magic ran all over them as a freshman, and I was treated terribly by K-State fan under 50. With that being said, I live in SEK and it seems to me that a lot of people in KS have a lot of faith in K-State and Klieman. I definitely want Nebraska to get every kid out of Ks that is highly ranked, we missed out on a several in the last 10 years that have went on to become very good ball players at other schools

As much as I hate to say it, it's going to be hard to get him away from K-State. They have put a major emphasis on getting in state kids. Frost and Co. need to work their butts off here and not let this kid get away

I think this is a big reason why the offense has been so sporadic, we haven't had a ton of players come back after spending 3 or 4 years in the system yet. Hell we didn't have a ton of players that had a lot of experience in any D1 offense this year

It would be if Frost would let him actually call plays, but since he wouldn't, there's no point in wishing for this pipe dream

its a huge improvement from where we were when frost got here

Do they need the spring to get their degrees? Not trying to be a Debbie downer, just trying not to get let down
