One would think. However, it would be something NU has never done. Money talks, but many seem to think most "proven" P5 coaches would consider NU a lateral move at best. Maybe Trev and the new facility changes that.

We'll for starters, you referred my post as "silly". So there's that. Felt I had to reaffirm my stance. I never said your comments were "false" or "thrown around". I said conjectural and unsubstantiated. Maybe you should look up the difference. And when did I place myself as more truthful than any other member/poster? And if I had, this end result would be??

If you know any of what you previously stated about HCSF and the staff firings to be true, please share. Otherwise, I stand by what I said. It's just conjecture at best. And possibly BS. I get the whole Internet forum thing and people being frustrated with the lack of success. I'm frustrated too. Our ST play is a joke. Scott and his offense struggles with responding to being counter-punched by opposing D coordinators. I guess some of us get tired of false or unsubstantiated information being thrown around. It doesn't do anybody any good.

Getting a good OL coach is absolutely imperative for there to be a chance HCSF is coaching NU in '23.

It's fine to draw that conclusion, but this is still a pretty conjectural take. Other than the "friends" part, none of us knows any of this to be factual.

Nobody is saying you or anyone else should ignore them. Pessimism is a choice, though. For me, I would be miserable if I chose to be pessimistic this entire offseason. I suppose, however, that some may relish in it.

I agree. It's not working out. He has one last chance to change that. I'm still concerned about the next guy working out, though. That's what I'm saying. I will be cheering next year and for the '23 coach, whoever it is.

Not when the guy being bought out is Scott Frost and when they've already been schmoozing donors to help with the new FB Facility. It's just not a good time for that kind of buyout. What Trev did with the contract restructuring was brilliant.

What happened to 2022?

We are losing some good ones, but I do have faith in Chins and co to develop young talent. Hopefully Damian Daniels comes back.

I'll be good later tonight. I used to be pissed for 3 days after a loss. Apathy just scored a TD and is catching up. I picked after bowl season, because then we can go a couple months without seeing much of anything about CFB. Ignorance is bliss.

I agree about the "circus", but I'm not flushing 2022 yet. I'd uncomfortably take the "over" at 7-5 at this point. But I actually think 6-6 is more likely as we stand now. Lets see who we get for new assistants and transfers---> PLEASE!!! A good QB!!!! Other teams profit on transfer QBs. Why can't we? Heck, the bigger question is, would 6-6 keep Frost employed? I think 7-5 would, but I have nothing to base that on. 5-7 or worse with 2022's schedule won't cut it anymore.

Some good points. I think Frost realizes some of this now. Perhaps too late. We'll find out by October next year I think. It's why Trev did what he did.

Hearing his presser words would give credence to that theory if that's what you want to hear , but then why did he fire 4 guys? What's he supposed to do? Come out and say he was wrong when I retained those four coaches last year? It's pretty obvious he's been wrong about several things in the past four years.

Maybe, but that's not really my point and I don't do Twitter so I wouldn't know--or really care about a Twitter poll. This whole thread screams Frustrated Fan venting. I get that, but on HB--at least with the usual posters that I've seen, the overwhelming majority, even his "defenders" knows Frost needs to make major changes in order to be employed a year from now. Frost is back next year no matter what. Some of us want him to (finally) figure it out and turn things around. Some are convinced he will fail and are counting the days until we get to take a chance on the next guy in '23. In either case it's likely going to be at least a couple more years until we get to the next step on the way to where we want to be. If it's Scott, great. If a change needs to be made in a year, I'll go along with that too. Something really concerns me...When was the last time, the "next guy" worked out for us? That's pretty much how I look at it.

The question was being asked on HB. Not Twitter. That's the issue.

Scott's coaching tenure is on the ropes and he knows it. I think to get a chance to be successful next year, wholesale offensive changes needed to happen. Lubick wasn't a glaring underperformer like others, but I'm not sure he was completely dialed in to this job. Maybe it won't work, but they need to try to get a spark on O, IMO. Completely agree on getting a portal QB.

Exactly. Even Frost's most ardent supporters I've seen on HB realize changes have to be made for anything to work out in 2022. Literally no one thinks the status quo is working.

People can want Nebraska to do well and remain optimistic. Is that who you are targeting here? Should we just adopt a pessimist attitude like so many here have? Sounds miserable.

.

Dumb a$$ fair catch on the 6 set that safety up nicely. ST will kill this team in 2022 if not taken seriously again.

Amen to that. Anyone else catch Gretna's state championship win over Westside? Flores was zinging the ball unlike any QB I've seen at the HS level in recent memory. Impressive velocity and accuracy. I sure hope he is being strongly considered by NU.

Nope. We're not winning this one. So what's the over-under for INT's for Iowa?

It’s not going to matter who the new OC is if we don’t get a good ST coach. And I’m not confident that we will. Scott thinking we have a specialist problem instead of a ST problem is just flat wrong. I like Coach, but it’s just disappointing that he doesn’t see this.
