MKMScat20 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 It’s all very interesting. Another former player on another board claiming “Scott ain’t coming to DONU”. Yet former players here saying he is. Just hoping he does come back and restore the order. Here’s my post to get us to 56 pages by midnight. GBR! Link to comment

Moving it is a bad idea, though. The entire purpose of it becoming a mega-thread was to act as a catch all for SF topics to prevent the board from becoming a cluster of SF topics. Moving this makes it increasingly less visible, and therefore increasingly less likely to fulfill its purpose. 2 Link to comment
Stone Cold Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 13 minutes ago, ladyhawke said: This is what I’ve been thinking as this discussion continues. I think it’s a done deal and it may have happened when TO went down to speak to Frosts’ team. I think Mike Riley was brought to Nebraska to help us all calm the heck down. His demeanor helped to heal all the angst that was left after Bo was fired. I think he was only going to coach until Scott had some head coaching experience under his belt then Riley would retire and Scott would come home. That’s my take and I’m sticking with it. I just dont see this being a possibility. If that was the point then eincorst didnt need to be shown the door if that was the long term plan. I do think Riley was brought here to calm things down but i just cant see us hiring a guy for only a few years. And if that was the case then why a contract extension, it just seems like a waste of money. And if they want to waste some money they could always just give it to me. I sure could use a new car.

Just wondering what kind of defining moment would have an employed coach seek an agent. They have continual relationships with agents just like pro players. Link to comment

Well, now that I think about it, my thoughts have gaping holes. But it does make for a nice conspiracy theory. 1/3 ain't bad. If I win the lottery this week I'll buy you a car! Link to comment
bisonwiches Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I think ladyhawke may be on to something in regards to Tom’s visit to UCF, but I don’t think it would’ve been an official offer or anything like that. “Hey Mr. Moos welcome to Nebraska, listen the day after Iowa you’re going to fire Riley and hire Scott Frost, ok thanks!” I can imagine something to the effect of “Scott, you’ve done great things down here, you think it might be time to come home?” Then Tom tells Bounds/Green/Moos his response. 1 Link to comment
Landlord Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 There have been too many conflicting reports from people you would expect would know their stuff, and from people who say they have legitimate sources but can't (naturally) reveal them. It's all very fun and exciting to take part in the fantasy, but to actually put stock in any of it is setting yourself up for disappointment. Those of you who were around during the initial emergence of the sock puppet should remember that. 1 Link to comment

Frost invited Osborne to speak at a UCF function. There’s videos of it on YouTube. Osborne understands commitment and continuity more than anyone and it doesn’t seem to be in his nature to try and sway Frost from his current commitments to UCF. There’s nothing to read into about Osborne’s visit. 1 Link to comment
huskerfan69 Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 (edited) i believe at the end of the season frost will ask osborne for advice, and i imagine osborne will simply tell him to do what's best for his family and his career. i don't believe osborne will try to sway him to nebraska.
