Belichick failed miserably with the Browns, now he might be the greatest NFL coach of all time.... There's hundreds of examples. 1 Link to comment

Second of all, I mean, come on: 10-4 // #16 9-4 // #23 12-2 // #8 // Conference Champions // Orange Bowl Champions 14-0 // #1 // Conference Champions // National Champions 13-1 // #5 // Conference Champions // CFB Playoff #3 Seed 10-3 // #14 // 10-3 // #8 // Orange Bowl Champions Currently 2-4 I agree it would be stupid for them to get rid of him but to say his seat isn't getting warm is wrong. Go read through their boards and see for yourself. A lot of them said they wouldn't hesitate to say goodbye if he decided to take another job (LSU) if it came open. Most are clamoring for him to fire assistant coaches and if he doesn't do that, then they want him gone. No one can really confirm his buyout but I have seen it as high as $40M and the buyout for his assistants is at $10M. That's a lot of scratch right there to be wasting just because of the season they are having. Link to comment

That's a lot of scratch right there to be wasting just because of the season they are having. It's a lot of money, but there's also no reason to think they won't bounce back from this. They lost their starting QB.... Not that it alone excuses the 2-4 record, but that guy was damn good. Also, one of their losses came to Alabama.... So their record is really 2-3-Alabama.

Guy Chamberlin Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Just for the record, I personally think Scott Frost would be a smart hire. I'm just worried we're acting like someone who hasn't had sex in a really long time, and how creepy that can seem to the person we want to bang. 7 Link to comment

That means literally nothing. Link to comment
River-runner Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Let me ask a couple of questions, don't flame me for asking honest questions: 1) Does Nebraska have structural issues that have led to our last four coaches being unsuccessful, I'm too far away from the program to know, but sure seems so - 2) Scott Frost is indeed a guy with a very bright future: a) Would NU present too much of a risk to his future earning potential given the last 17 or so years versus other schools?, b) Would a rising star coach demand more money coming to NU just because of the underlying risk of failure(you have to admit NU's Winning Tradition is broken)? In my own mind, if I was Frost, I'd think about my own future.....didn't the stadium boo him when he was playing....probably remembers that experience like it was yesterday....... GBR Link to comment

The stadium didn't boo him. It was a few drunk students. Besides, if he's making his decision based on something like that that happened over 20 years ago, then he probably isn't the coach we want. Fun Fact: The game when the boo birds came out was against none other then the UCF Knights! Edited October 27, 2017 by Isle of View Link to comment
