SouthLincoln Husker Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Watson fell into a place with a great QB, now Frost. Only time will tell if he is as good as he seems. Quote Link to comment
NWHuskerfan Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Well considering Oregon has been in BCS bowls for six straight years this is much more than Mariota. Scott Frost has been the main recruiter of many of these big name players. He's the real deal. Word is Oregon is in the lead for Hawaiian Superstar QB recruit Tua Tagovailoa who they say is the next Mariota. Oregon just reloads. I think they'll have their first National Title next week. The Frost stock is going to continue to rise. He is just added dollar amounts to his resume. 1 Quote Link to comment

I picked them because of Mariota and the D has been getting better. The future will hold the truth. Quote Link to comment
NWHuskerfan Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Sorry my facts were off they played in Alamo bowl last year and ended 10-2, but Rose Bowl victory this year and a second national title appearance in recent years. Frost has also coached DB's and I believe WR's at Oregon prior to his promotion. The head coach was a NAIA QB at Southern Oregon. Quote Link to comment
I am I Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Can Scott Frost do what he is doing tonight with Oregon at Nebraska in less than ten years? Can Huskerboard posters stop getting sweaty thinking about Scott Frost? I agree to a point, then my my wanders to dream land when they show him in the booth looking cool as a cucumber calling plays for an Unstoppable offense in championship games. The experience he is gaining and the ability of him to mold a play sheet to serious destruction...if hes at all interested in nebraska, im interested in him whenever that may be.

He wouldn't have that here. Who's to say he would be any good at all here? Let him cut his teeth somewhere else besides Oregon and prove his mettle. Then let him come here. until then, cool the Frost talk because he is unproven outside of his haven of Oregon. That's like saying Tom Osborne is unproven outside his haven of Nebraska. You either have it or you don't. He obviously has it leading that offense the past two years. 1 Quote Link to comment
HuskerPowerVA Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I am not saying if I prefer Frost now or ever, because it really doesn't matter. The reality is he will be a hot prospect within the next year and will get a HC chance before NE needs one again. Whether that opportunity is one he will leave to come back here, or if the state of the Huskers requires a completely new direction, is speculation that I can't get my head around.

alexhortdog95 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 You guys who think that Frost is the #1 reason why Oregon is so dominant are mistaken. Mark Helfrich was the Offensive coordinator for four years prior to becoming the HC. Frost needs to get some more experience before you can say he's the 2nd coming. Quote Link to comment
VA Husker2 Posted January 2, 2015 Author Share Posted January 2, 2015 Look, I'm not all wet over the prospect of Scott Frost at NU. My original question was: Could he do what he is doing at Oregon at NU in less than ten years? I think he has had an abundance of help achieving his success and those who think he could pack up his scheme and game plans and bring it to NU and be immediately successful are delusional!!!

And the fact that they are the new Free Shoes University doesn't help, I'm sure Quote Link to comment
gobiggergoredder Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Speed is far from the entire story. The difference for Oregon this year, that has pushed them a higher level is physicality to match their speed.I agree with this. The biggest difference I saw in Oregon yesterday was their control of the line of scrimmage (specifically on defense). This is something that the Huskers have done almost never under Pelini (both sides). On a side note, the offense that has attacked the most during this bowl season has been GT. Maybe even TCU. There's going to be big changes in Lincoln if we start winning the war up front. Quote Link to comment
TGHusker Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Looks like Scott does a good job of helping the Oregon QBs keep a balanced perspective: http://www.worldmag.com/2015/01/heisman_trophy_winner_football_doesn_t_define_me Oregon, on the other hand, won eight games by at least 24 points. The school and its alumni boosters have spent tens of millions of dollars on palace-like facilities to recruit players who will help the school win NCAA titles. But the Ducks have yet to do so. “It’s a huge pressure, but you learn a lot about yourself through it,” Mariota said. “Coach Frost has helped me learn that football doesn’t define me. It’s just what I do.” That may be harder to accomplish now that he’s a “Heisman Trophy winner,” but Frost helps him keep that in perspective. “Even if you’re competing for a national title and you lose a game, if you’re all in for God first, then your foundation is on the rock, and you’re not going to be shaken,” Frost said.
