The Scarlet Pimpernel

I also noticed that the UCF AD hasn't said anything over the past couple of weeks (unless I missed something) -- makes me think that Frost may have told him, "Hey, I just want to let you know that if Nebraska comes calling I'm likely going to accept their offer"

I hope spurrier causes florida to s#!t themselves and miss kelly and watch us bring frost home and they have to settle for charlie strong.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Kelly end up at UCLA instead of Florida -- which would leave the Gators scrambling to get Mullen or Strong (once Frost comes home, of course). 

I understand what Benning is saying, but bottom line is, UCF may very well go undefeated this year, and still won't make the playoff. That pretty much tells Frost all he needs to know.

So what if by some chance we don't land Scott Frost? Who would be our Plan B? I was thinking it'd be Matt Campbell, but considering he has a $9-million buyout, I think that eliminates him as a candidate. My choice would be Gary Patterson, who admitted that he interviewed with Osborne prior to Pelini being hired.

At this point, if Frost doesn't come, it'll be a collective punch in the gut to the entire Husker fan base. No other name, no matter how big, will suffice.

That...would be rough. And might be the death knell.

Yep... if he doesn't come, it's going to be like the entire Husker fan base getting the wind knocked out of them at the same time.

I just hope it's not the Iowa State coach... I don't see what's so special about him. We've gotta get Frost; anyone else would be a huge disappointment, no matter how much the AD & others tried to play it up.

I won't believe Kelly is going to Florida until it's official. If anything I see him going to UCLA. Florida fans on some boards I frequent still think Frost is their guy

Sorry i don't remember that. which one of those 12 post was it?

Never said it was on here. Actually it was on a different Nebraska board, where a certain obnoxious power-abusing poster with the initials RR rules the roost.

I just hope we land Frost, because I don't see us accomplishing much with Matt Campbell (if he's our backup plan). Can someone explain to me what's so great about him?

Which was funny because he did win at Georgia.  He won a lot.  He won championships.

Yeah, I tried to point that out. Nobody wanted to listen. Funny how now they're all singing a different tune.

If Frost is hired, I guarantee that we'll be in a bowl next year, which will be marked improvement from where we are now. From there, it's just continued improvement on a yearly basis. 

I wasn't impressed, to be honest. He holds on to the ball for way too long. Needs to go through his progressions much more quickly.

I don't know much about most of the guys you listed ... But they look better than the current staff.

Heck Robin Hood and his band of Merry Men would look better than the current staff

And why is that?

Honestly, he hasn't impressed me all that much. He's had a couple of nice wins, but hasn't done nearly enough to warrant a HC position at Nebraska.

So if not Frost, then who? I, for one, am not a big fan of Matt Campbell.

There were plenty of posters here and on other boards that swore up and down that Riley would work wonders with our unlimited resources that were unavailable to him at Oregon State. I tried my best to be excited, but I knew we were in trouble when his staff consisted primarily of his old Beaver buddies.

I remember a few years ago when I said we should go after Richt, people said I was crazy, he couldn't even win at Georgia with all that talent, etc.

Idiots.

About the delusional part or the Florida part?

both 

Florida fans on other boards seem to think that we're all delusional and that Frost is going there. I sure hope they're wrong.
