Yeah, it's not like Nebraska has a history of 1st time head coaches having success: Tom Osborne - 255-49-3 (.836) 1 of only two head coaches in D1 CFB history to never win fewer than 9 games per season Frank Solich - 58-19 (.753) Never had a losing season Bo Pelini - 67-27 (.713) The only other head coach in D1 CFB history to never win fewer than 9 games per season 2 Quote Link to comment
Scratchtown Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 I've been saying it all along. Scott Frost is your answer!Another first time head coach, brilliant!!! Well the experienced ones we've brought in have done exponentially worse than any first time guy we have ever had....so idk why people keep thinking a first time guy is bad. 2 Quote Link to comment

I guess you've never heard of Harvey Perlman or Steve Pederson? Nebraska is the only school in history to fire a 9 win coach without any losing seasons. In fact, they've done it twice! 1 Quote Link to comment
Frustrated Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 The fans of other B1G teams I have talked to are sad that we fired Bo. I think that they would throw a huge party if we hire Frost! Quote Link to comment
Excel Posted October 11, 2015 Share Posted October 11, 2015 It doesn't make sense to fire someone in their first year unless they are win-less. Riley hasn't been great for you guys but he has been competitive, you've been in every game this year and could very easily be 6-0 right now. Firing a guy like that so early sets a terrible precedent and it's not as if people are beating down the door to coach at Nebraska. You have to play to your strengths. Some schools have location, others have tons of money, fertile recruiting grounds or a prestigious conference but in Nebraska's case I think we'd all agree that your greatest strength and source of appeal to potential coaching hires and recruits alike is your history and tradition. Flipping between guys every couple of years sort of cheapens that. Were I a Nebraska fan I'd give him at least three years. 4 Quote Link to comment

Now, he was pushed out as AD, not head coach. I digress, I guess I'd take any of those 3 over what we currently have. Quote Link to comment
