Honestly 20 degrees in Nebraska is warmer than 40 degrees in Florida. These kids don't understand the humidity works both ways haha. 

Exactly. 

You cannot say that you want to play in the NFL and then say you only wanna play in warm weather.  Better hope Buffalo doesnt draft you! 

I thinks its silly that a recruit would choose weather over tradition and facilities.  If a recruit does that, we don't want them anyway.  Floridian cant handle cold, but they can handle humidity.  Nebraskans can handle cold, but not humidity.  WHO CARES?!! 

Great players wanna be somewhere because of the culture/environment.  Not the forecast.  Id bet good money that Frost wouldn't recruit a kid who would complain about the weather to the extent that it would affect their recruiting decision.  

I opened this thread in the hopes that it would be a pun/play on our new head coaches last name.  It is not.  

The "Scott Frost Thread"....the gift that keeps on giving this holiday season.  

I think Husker nation might want to prepare for "not getting Frost". I dont say that because of the article, I am with most of you when you say its just a local writer hoping that Frost says.  I think that ultimately UCF fans/media & UNL fans/media will have zero impact on his decision.  I think Frost doesn't want to be like other coaches, hopping from job to job.  I think there is a strong chance that he stays UCF.  I would be surprised if he lesves for UNL or UF.

With that said, I hope he comes back to Nebraska.

No thanks.

That might be the single biggest thing that gets overlooked in this decision for scott frost. Florida may have better recruiting ground- but they dramatically underestimate how good runza fries dipped in ranch are.

I forgot about runza....its a lock!

The good thing is that there are only 8 or 9 days left before RIley is gone and then it isn't going to be long after that when we hear thunder loud noises of Nebraska and Scott Frost. 

I second this

I can't stand the trash on Lee man. He's a good player with alot of talent. He's not what everyone wants and he has made mistakes but the arm talent and moxie are clear to me. Hope he is able to go Saturday but only if he is 100%. Don't risk the kids brain.

AS a former college football coach, I will never be on board with any QB that has 3 games with more than 3 interceptions. A lot of those balls were ill-advised throws.  Arm talent he has, but do you know what "moxie" means?  He lacks greatly in "moxie".  He is definitely eye candy...looks good in a uniform and has a big arm, but he lacks it between the ears.  I wish him well, but the production is just not there.  Also, STOP making excuses for him and STOP blaming the O-line.  So many times he could have slid one direction or the other but because he lacks pocket presence he cannot keep his eyes downfield and feel pressure.  Thats bad quaterbacking 101.  

My top 5 

1.  Scott Frost 

2. Scott Frost 

3. Scott Frost 

4. Les Miles

5. Bob Stoops ( not likely )

Just thought this was interesting.  I'm sure we'll hear it again.  Just about EVERY hire is a home-run hire.

 

 

 

 

Most people dont know ish about college football coaching hires (mayweather sr. voice ) 

I am always a little Gotlieb and Herbstreit....should have know it was a bad hire.  SMH

I would rather be 3 years into Frosts rebuild at this point even with no experience as would you I imagine.

I can not to this day wrap my head around the thought process that brought Riley here. 

I think we would all rather be anywhere but here.

I agree with you that Riley makes no sense, but rather has a prepared Frost than one that is beat up and run out of town.  

With that said, I think they get him here. Then what will you complain about?  LOL

Glad to see scott frost went down on the list, it was making me nervous.

You may be right about Frost but Riley wasn't ready either.  

I agree that Riley was not the right fit culturally.  I would never argue that point.  But like most Husker Fans, I thought I would give him a chance.  We dont want to be that school that hires and fires after a season and a half.  The road back to greatness is long.  We may even be jumping the gun on Frost now.  Remember, we dont just get Frost, we get his young staff too. Not all of them have experience in a Power 5 Conference. With that said, I think the culture of a coach is far more important than scheme.  We missed culture on the last few hires.  I think Moos gets it.

Rileys hire and Frost being snubbed still enrages and confuses me.

Frost was not ready to be a head coach at UNL.  UCF was a good level for him.

I was ran off this board for lobbying for Frost to replace Riley his entire first year. I even emailed all the brass at UNL. Posted my reply from Perlman. Some members came at me pretty hard for it. I didnt post for a year. I just stalked anonymously. ; )

I think this was an easy one, dont pat yourself on the back too hard. Also, its pretty easy to predict doom and gloom.  

Hell....No!

so basically we can got 12-0 or 0-12? Got it! bring on the season. #AnalyticsMakeMyHeadHurt

Glad to hear Bradley is doing well! Begs the question, why is there no clear cut #1 that is a veteran?

I think it will all come down to the Defense and the QB play. If Tanner Lee is able to control possession and defense doesnt give up big plays, we should be in position to win a few games. With that said, 9-3 is pretty lofty. Im thinking 8-4.

Burning POB's redshirt would be an absolute waste. We are trying to promote competition at the QB position.

Think about this, if we burned his redshirt, he would be a soph competing against Tanner Lee. Lets say he loses (which is highly likely against a senior), he would go in to Fall 2018 as a junior. Let that sink in.

I'm confident we could beat Iowa with a QB roster of Stephen Hawking, Helen Keller, and Selena Gomez.

Iowa is not a team to be taken lightly. They have a good head coach, and a very tough defense. We have struggled with good defenses this year. You dont look past Iowa, ever. Ask Michigan.

 

I just dont know if he has enough experience playing with a quirky injury like that.

Do you go with the younger guy who is healthy if you can get him a good game plan this week?

 

Are you referring to Patrick O'Brien?

 

I was referring to Zac Darlington. I cant imagine this group would burn O'Briens red shirt for a win against Iowa.
