  1. The one thing I'm always surprised that people have failed to mention over the past 4 years -- Martinez's inability to run the tempo offense that Frost had at UCF. I'm sure some may think it's Frost just changing philosophies over the years, but that would be a huge overhaul to one of the things that made his offense so prolific at UCF. Even more, if you remember back to last year with McCaffrey at the helm, we were running tempo more in just that small sample size than we ever had with Martinez under center. It's another in a long line of things that makes Frost unwillingness to go get another QB inexcusable, if for nothing else just push Martinez at job.
  2. Frost hitched his wagon to a QB who showed no improvement for 4 years. Refused to bring in any real competition either during the entire period. No one but himself to blame for the results.
  3. Technically we are 4-1 if we count moral victories.
  4. Michigan State had 0 first downs, and 5 yards of total offense in the 2nd half. And still won. I'm not for sure how that is even possible. But here we are.
  5. This is something people may not like to hear, but Martinez is the best QB by a country mile on this roster. And that should tell you alot about the talent in that QB room.
  6. I'm not a drinker. But this mess is depressing.
  7. We are at that point where Frost has to decide what is more important -- doing this job with his friends, or doing this job with the best people possible. In coming here, he earned the right to choose his staff. Nearly 3 years in, it simply isn't working. If progress was being shown, it would be something to discuss. But in no way can anyone make the argument that the program today is in better shape than it was 3 years ago. So Frost is at a crossroads. He's preached loyalty and friendship to this staff since the beginning. But there is simply dead weight here where coaches aren't that active in recruiting, and the play of their positional talent on the field doesn't cover their lack of recruiting chops. Does he make the necessary adjustments to this staff, or does he want to continue with it in it's current state? A true leader would make the tough decisions, and real friends would understand that it is nothing personal. So we'll see where Frost is at after this season in regards to how he wants to hadnle this staff.
  8. It's a Nebraska thing. Head coaches who hire their best friend to be a DC, and they are absolutely awful at their job. Callahan - Cosgrove Riley - Banker Frost - Chinander
  9. Because the reigning national champions need Nebraska to gain some PR advantage right now ..
  10. Time for Frost to do a little inward looking. He isn't a savior. He doesn't walk on water. He can make incorrect decisions, and has shown a terrible habit of pointing the finger rather than accepting the blame. He's got some tough roster decisions to make in the offseason. And even more, he's got some tough coaching decisions to make. If he decides his friendships are worth more than his job, then as much as he will want to point the finger of his demise elsewhere, it's all gonna be of his own doing. I think of this sorta like 2010 Clemson. Dabo finally figured out he wasn't the hot shot know-it-all he thought he was. He hired some top tier assistants like Chad Morris, and went on to hire Brent Venables. Tough decisions suck, and it's even worse when it may hurt a friendship. But is that friendship worth your job, hurting 85 scholarship kids, and an entire fan base just so you can have a hunting buddy or two?
  11. If Chinander is employed at the beginning of next season, it's because Frost has determined his friendship is more important than his future. Giving up 10 yards a play, to Wisconsin.
  12. By putting the blame directly on the players for not 'buying in'? Frost came here 2 years ago pointing the fingers at the previous staff for the ineptitude and record. Now the struggles have continued, and actually gotten worse, but instead the blame goes to the players?
  13. Frost is about to get in that Callahan situation. Is your best friend worth risking any hint of job security? Callahan decided it was with Cosgrove. Will Frost do the same with Chinander?
