Yeah but can he do the splits?

Thus the hurry.

I said this earlier about another candidate but it applies to him as well. If you were looking to advance yourself as quickly as possible being successful at Nebraska will do that much better than being successful at Pitt. If he can come in next year and Nebraska has a good year and our offense looks really good he's going to immediately become a head coaching candidate for power 5 schools. Conversely if things don't go well the majority of the blame is going to fall on Frost. Even Bob diaco even got another big10 DC position and he was not only incompetent.....he was crazy.

Man not I'm seeing it. He seems like a southern boy who is a little awkward in front of the camera. I didn't see the arrogance at all.

It is a risk but also high-reward. If he comes here and is successful he's immediately in line for top jobs as a head coach. That is difficult in this current position. If successful, and that is a big if, Nebraska has a much more high-profile job in a superior conference.

That not completely true and only part of the package. I’d rather have somebody with lesser arm talent but is able to manage an offense well(which AM could not). Great kid. Good talent. Maybe he's been mismanaged by our staff but I don’t think that is the whole issue.

We have way to small of a sample size to judge Smothers and have to assume improvement between now and the start of next year as he is just a freshman with one game under his belt.

Hire a ST coordinator. Have Frost/ST coach/grad assistants handle the QB's. Hire a QB special assistant that handles the QB's in the film room and off the field. This isn't that hard and IMO is fireable offense. If I was this incompetent at my job I would be fired, sued for malpractice and likely going to prison. and I'm a pro frost guy...... but come on.

He had a full year in our system. Prior to a few years ago red shirts didn’t get any snaps.

Austin needs to go. I’m sure he’s a great guy but when i look at this year and this team oline is clearly lagging behind compared to every other group.

2nd half was the best play calling of Frosts tenure

I saw some ppl on a YouTube video making comment about how we haven’t played anyone….I just looked at their schedule so far… I’m actually feeling a little more confident. Vegas line seems fair.

What about running the ball down Miami’s throat in 2014?

He strikes me as the type that is at his best with a chip on his shoulder

I struggle getting too upset with an 18-20 year old for being wishy washy on school…esp if they don’t have parents/strong adult figures to steady them. My father was a college basketball coach and over his 20+ year career I cant tell you how many times he had kids come in and were quite flakey (and almost certainly would have transferred in todays climate) who by the end of their college career had matured immensely and went on to have wildly successful professional(not pro basketball) careers. An 18 y/o may be an adult but they are very rarely mature.

I feel like 6 wins can be had simply by addressing turnovers and special teams. I don’t feel like that’s asking too much

I dont feel like it makes sense to put too much stock in last years results. Covid messed up everything and you were seeing pretty bizarre and unexpected results across all sports including college football.

I have no problem with the idea transfer portal but it needs to be tweaked. There needs to be some drawback to a transfer. 3 games? 6 games? There needs to be something.

Gonna be interesting to see how he does. IMO his pro prospects are not great. He’s a slower deanthony Thomas. He is a good but not great college player. Maybe he will prove me wrong at Kentucky..... but I doubt it.

The difference with frost is he wouldn’t use this as a means to a better job. I think many coaches would

I get that it has been a long season.... but It would strike me as weird that the school that pushed so hard to play and said they would play anywhere would turn down a game.

As much money as there = is in this conference.... how is this acceptable?

Frost and crouch also had one of the best running attacks in the country that the other team was solely focused on.

The difference in the games come down to the fumbles... esp the one by AM.
