He was preparing Walters to call plays in a couple games this year when Frost's baby was about to be born. It will be interesting how long Frost will want to call plays in his coaching tenure. I am sure he enjoys doing it, but I wonder if there will be a time where he wants to oversee more of the program. I hope he always call plays. Osborne did. It keeps the offense stable regardless of who steals our OC's. Look at ohio state. Thats why their offense goes up and down depending on the year. Meyer doesnt call the plays anymore. So if you hire a crap guy like Tim Beck you suffer. 2 Link to comment

Or do Nebraska just hate their OC so much that even if all Walters does is not obstruct the offense, it's still a massive improvement? Our OC is very bad. Anything would be an improvement. 2 Link to comment

I thought it was established that in order to be a finalist for the Broyles award, an OC or DC had to call plays. And Walters is/was a nominee. Link to comment
ScawFraw Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Well, it's the most confident I've felt about Frost N probably ever. Peer pressure by reading the board. The confidence level on this thread is amazing, more than it's ever been. We're close. Link to comment

BigRedBuster Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I never have understood why, if the HC is going to call plays, there still is an OC on the staff. The OC is going to formulate the game plan through the week and go through the thought process of how to attack the defense. That should be done by the guy who is actually calling the plays...(with input from others). So, why have an OC if the HC is going to basically do the job? Link to comment
Packerhuskerfan Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 So when is the Frost announcement supposed to come? After the championship game if they get there or before? Link to comment

I am sure there is alot of duties in the job description for OC. The OC would still do everything else but call the plays on game day. Some people have a gift for calling plays in the moment on the fly. That talent should never go to waste. Link to comment

He could trust his DC to do the same. Those teams were well oiled machines because their head coach was so deeply involved in the game. Link to comment

Either way, coaches can be successful calling plays and not calling plays. Link to comment

I would rather have the coaches be successful at developing players and know how to game plan and coach during games. 3 Link to comment
