Will they ever let it go or will it be something fans have to hear like Johnny Rodgers and driving the getaway cracks I've been hearing my entire life. Don’t you think any and all questions Damon would have had of Scott when this incident happened were answered a very long time ago. I certainly do. They are adults fir crying out loud!

Popular Post epocSoN Posted November 22, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted November 22, 2017 Real talk, if we miss on Frost and hire Brett F'ing Beilema I will never watch another Husker game. Not an ounce of hyperbole in this statement. I've ben a Husker since birth but I'm out if that jackwagon steps foot on campus. 21 Link to comment

His inflection and long ass questions are an attempt to portray himself as a savant. I absolutely dread his interviews. His questions are commentaries. Great running back though. I am at the other end of the spectrum. I find Damon to be articulate, intelligent regarding his subject matter and interesting. I thought the segment on Bug Red Wrap Up when Damon and Jason Peter were in was the best one of the season. Link to comment
cheekygeek Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 It might sound like chicken feed now, but Scott Frost gets $100K for appearing in a major bowl this year and another $100K for winning it. Link to comment

Damon is better in a supporting role. He's lost when Sharp is gone from the show. He does very well as a color guy or sideline reporter. He is a better assistant coach or host than being the lead guy. 1 Link to comment

IIRC it supposedly split the team for a while, and (again, IIRC) I remember reading Benning wasn't the only one that is still grinding that axe--he's just the only one with a voice in the media.

BoNeyard Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 I don't know about that number of 8 mil from Florida to Frost, but that Lars guy did break the news weeks ago (maybe less then a week ago, but feels like weeks at this point) with the first Nebraska offer to Frost and Frost practically accepting or whatever that was. So I wont immediately throw him out for credibility. This also depends on if Kelly doesn't go to Florida. I do find it hard to believe Florida would offer Frost 8 million and they have zero connections to him. To Florida he is a guy who is doing really well at UCF in year 2. I just don't see them offering that much to Frost. Also didn't they publically come out? Or "Leak" their concerns about Frost? This was of course an effort to save face for Frost turning them down and them having to come up with a narrative to move on from Frost and go to Kelly. Lets fast forward this week. Link to comment

Hopefully the image below will put this guy (Lars) into context for you. Do you really think Bielema would be acceptable to Moos, Green, Bounds or anyone on the BOR? I don't know who this Lars Anderson guy is, but I don't believe a word he says. No way do the Gators offer $8-million, and if they don't land Frost or Kelly, their next targets are Strong and Taggart. Now, if they miss out on Chip, will they come after Frost again? I'm sure they will. They won't get him, though. I'm confident that Moos and Frost have a preliminary deal in place. Moos comes across as a guy who has his shi.... stuff together.

Also, let's just remember that even if Florida offered Frost $8 million/year, that a) doesn't mean Frost accepted it b) the offer may come with stipulations that Frost does not agree to (e.g. Florida's concerns about Frost wanting to bring/use his own staff) c) a large sum offer this late in the game and after flirting heavily with Frost's mentor reeks of desperation Edited November 22, 2017 by VectorVictor 3 Link to comment

I am a Benning fan, but sometimes I think he tries way tooooo hard to show that he is knowledgable. I think when he speaks on football, he intentionally uses terms and phrases that show he has remarkable insight, but he forgets that 95% of his audience aren't football coaches and maybe don't understand a lot of what he is saying. I am even a football coach of over 20 years and he loses me now and again. Don't try so hard Damon ! 2 Link to comment
