This team is playing like they believe in themselves.  We need to plug in the right recruits to fit the scheme but all in all....They made HUGE leaps in the past 3 games.

Rocking Adidas at a Nike convention, Nice!

lol but of course! 

Just got back from a great Nike Coaches convention.  Also got to pick the brains of some of the great coaches in college football.  You might recognize a few of these guys.  PJ Fleck was probably one of the best speakers of the entire convention.  Chris Petersen is a very smart guy!  The drills he comes up with are incredible  The guy is full of fire and it's hard not to like the guy.  Yes Yes I even told them I am from Nebraska (they still spoke to me after that lol ) and they spoke very highly of Scott Frost.  Anyways, I learned a lot!

I still don't think it's a great idea for kids at 5 playing tackle football. At the end of the day you can teach fundamentals all you want, but the runner and tackler are both going to duck their heads and see who wins more times than not. 

So you wait until their 14 and then teach them?  Kids are bigger/faster/strong now and if they have no experience they are going to get hurt badly.  I have seen kids who try and start football as a freshman in High School and usually ending up quitting because of how hard the hitting is.  They are pretty much in shock the first time they are hit.  If they start younger most kids already have the techniques when it comes to tackling, footwork and knowing how to take a hit.  At age 5 kids get hurt more tripping over their own feet then taking a massive hit to the head.

Apparently the State of Maryland is pushing a ban for all tackle football under the age of 14.  As a former youth coach who had all 3 boys play since they were 5 and now a current varsity coach at the high school this is absurd!!!  So when they reach the age of 14 they will have NO IDEA in regards to technique or the fundamentals of tackle football.  THIS is where they will get injured!  It is growing legs with the state legislation and is being pushed by a former NFL player and MD alum, Madieu Williams.  So damn frustrated!!!!!!

I am headed to 72nd and Dodge right now!  Who's with me??!!!

No not really but damn it feels good to have our coach home! 

I have this funny feeling that Matt Davison is going to be on his staff somewhere

Coach Frost says "we are going to be fast around here!"

LOVE IT

Says he "watched videos from people wanting him here.  People are passionate here about their football team"

I wonder if he was talking about the "Frost come home" video lol

Man he says the right things. Can not wait for this regime to start. 

I think because he "gets it".  

I love the fact that he talked to Coach Osborne about the walk on program and how Scott wants to bring it back.  This is HUGE for the program! 

Awesome how Coach Frost spoke about bringing back the walk on program and that's the kids that sacrifice and bleed for the program.  So damn excited to hear about that!

It's still so surreal!

Hi Huskers,

 

Congratulations on getting your man. Coach Frost is obviously the perfect man and perfect fit for you, and after all the years of tumult, it is just what the doctor ordered. Major props to AD Moos for navigating the process with the highest of class, and for letting Coach Frost finish his season with his team at UCF who clearly loved him dearly.

 

Speaking for me, and as a Badger fan who loves college football and the Big Ten Conference, I can say that I am very much looking forward to the return of Nebraska, sooner rather than later. I'm looking even more forward to the annual Nebraska-Wisconsin game becoming the kind of high-power matchup it was always meant to be.

 

Let the rivalry officially begin now, and we'll see you, and your new coach, next year in Madison!

Please beat OSU!

They offered him a 24/7 fast pass for any ride at any park for Disney World.

 

Idk how you turn that down!

I had heard if Frost comes to back to Nebraska they are going to re-open Peony Park for him and his family! 

Ugh I feel your pain but I am a Huskers/Chiefs fan.  We are looking like a clueless team with no sense of direction the past 5 games.

Me personally I think Frost is a done deal as the next football coach at Nebraska.  I don't have any sources but things are lining up like it's going to happen.

Piece of human garbage

I am not sticking up for the guy by any means but it was investigated and found no evidence that he witnessed anything.  Of course there are two sides to every story and the truth is always somewhere in the middle

What is the deal with Schiano that makes him a creep?  Seen it mentioned twice now. Other than being an jerk.

He was mentioned as someone "who may have knew about what Sandusky was doing" while at Penn State.  According to what I have read it was all 3rd and 4th party information and was concluded as being untrue.

Sorry I'm a bit out of the loop but what has  Schiano done that makes him "Creepy" even at his current job?

Please give five good reasons Frost would want to come back to Nebraska.

I can think of 35 million reasons why! 

Not with this buyout someone would have to give in order to get him!

Campbell is under contract through the 2021 season with a salary of $2.1 million in 2017 that raises $100,000 a year, meaning Campbell is in line to earn $2.2 million in 2018, $2.3 million in 2019, $2.4 million in 2020 and $2.5 million in 2021.

It is still way to early for me to make up my mind about him but so far I like what I see/hear.
