jsneb83 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 And so many of you that can do better than Watson don't think Frost is up to the task? I remember Solich taking a chance on a lb coach out of Green Bay to be dc!!! Frost would be beter at calling plays than watson according to many of you or should we let you call the plays? I get confused. Hey as long as he doesn't call the same play that isn't working 5 times in a row or goes away from something that is having success, then you think he would do better than Watson. I say have him be co-OC for couple years just to get his feet wet and then give him complete control when he is ready. Quote Link to comment
cscott2win Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Bo's aquarium guy's Dad may no longer be with the team. Rumors are it is not an aquatic issue and as far as news out of the athletic department BAGD (Bo's aquarium guy's Dad) is still an employee of the department. however an advertisement in the local paper stated.... "For hire.... someone who is knowlegeable in the health and well being of salt water fish, who is able to keep secrets and is able to diagram offensive plays in spread formations should apply at www. helpbofigureitout.com...

That LBs coach from Green Bay came very highly recommended by one of the most respected defensive minds of all time in Monte Kiffin. i'm pretty sure chip kelly would recommend frost...

zoogs Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 What EZ is talking about here: Bo: 3 years, DBs (SF) 3 years, LBs (NE) 3 years, LBs (GB) After which Bo got some heavy-hitting recommendations (Pete Carroll too, if I'm not mistaken) and got his shot. Bo really worked hard and shot up the ladder in those 9 years (one year before which he spent scouting for SF), to get his shot at a big-time DC position where he was charged to fix a sagging defense. With his resume, Bo was a hot young assistant at that time, and a rising star in the profession - rather than a proven guy or whatever. Frost: 2 years, LBs (Northern Iowa) 2 years, WRs (Oregon) Quote Link to comment
Hercules Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Nobody's saying it's not a risk. Frost is high-risk, high-reward. It's just there are some of us willing to take the risk, and some of us who aren't. I'm willing to take the risk, but I also don't know too much about the other candidates. I do know that Frost is smart, energetic, has studied with some great minds, has spent the last two years helping coach the offense that we're trying to emulate, and I know that he'd be a lightning bolt of optimism into an offense that desperately needs it, as well as the program and fan base as a whole.

Vince from ShamWOW Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 From Mitch Sherman. All of these guys from the OWH are knocking them out of the park. http://www.omaha.com/article/20110204/BIGRED/702049759#frost-has-interest-in-joining-nu-staff Quote Link to comment
corncraze Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Great article, personally I think their just playing the negotiating game. If I had to bet on this, I would say Frost comes back to Nebraska as Co-OC. Hey this is just opinion though, but for all I know Frost could be too greedy or Pelini to unwilling to budge in the negotiations. Quote Link to comment
zonaSker Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 He's coming. It's just the matter of negotiations and each side fighting for as much as they can get. He'll end up taking Co-OC & and a fat check. Quote Link to comment

Frost: 2 years, LBs (Northern Iowa) 2 years, WRs (Oregon) Exactly. Do we risk the welfare of our program in a new conference and a "tough" schedule on a guy who played here, but has two years of offensive coaching experience? He was coaching defense a mere three seasons ago. Quote Link to comment

He was coaching defense a mere three seasons ago. Thank god some people have some reason. He might be a great coach, but he has done very little to show that. Name one receivers coach in the country with two years experience that anyone would want at OC at nebraska. Frost is from Nebraska...let it go people. I heard a guy call 'Sports Nightly' tonight and say Frost should be OC because of how good he looked against Tennessee in 98. Quote Link to comment

People need to think before they call into talk shows and embarass themselves. Someone called Sports Sound Off one time to tell Jason Peter he was mean and wasn't pumping more sunshine into the program...mind you, this was during our downfall at the end of the season.

If we could get Scott to come here as a WR/QB coach, you bet that I am all for it. Look people, Scott is going to get an OC position sooner or later. That I am fully confidant in, but I don't think that we need to hire him after how little experience that he has. Quote Link to comment
AngryHusker88 Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 (edited) I want to point out that even though Frost isnt as experienced as some would like, if he's hired as OC I dont see how he can be any worse than Watson so its not exactly a huge risk IMO Edited February 5, 2011 by AngryHusker88 Quote Link to comment
Fuzzy Posted February 5, 2011 Share Posted February 5, 2011 Im going to throw this out there and read the replies in the morning as i drive to Lincoln. Do most people want Scott Frost as OC because he is Scott Frost? or because of what he can bring to the table in an offensive scheme? I guess what i am trying to say is that it seems folks want him because of his legacy at Nebraska and i haven't seen one comment that talks about what kind of offense he would want to bring to Nebraska.
