If we want him, it will take a visit from Coach Osborne. Osborne did visit him. I'm pretty sure he knew some things about the status of our program prior to his arrival.

Orlando is a hick town itself, just propped up by a bunch of tourist traps (okay, very large grandiose tourist traps). My dad left home in Michigan when he was 15, 70 years ago, and ended up working on a ranch in Immokalee, Fl........he's told that story about a thousand times. Link to comment

They seem to give up some big plays every game and a lot of yards. Maryland lost it's q/b so that wasn't really a good gauge on his team against a B1G team. They score a lot so it doesn't seem to be a problem against who they play now. I'm worried if that staff does get hired, if their D/C can stop the teams he will be going up against week after week .BC had a good offense, but his D/C was in over his head. I hope its not the same with Frost's D/C, if the hire is made. GBR!!! They don't care if they give up some big plays if they are getting turnovers. His DC wants to take the ball away as the top priority. Link to comment

They're also going to naturally give up more yards than most teams because the other team has more possessions than they do against most teams, due to the UCFast offense. When you score fast, you give the othe team that many more possessions in a game. Having said that, UCF is still #30 in Total Defense and #17 in Scoring Defense. Link to comment
Crusader Husker Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 My take on the situation is two fold. One is I don't like the fact that most of the fan base forcing our AD to have to hire Frost. If he feels Frost is not the best guy he has the fan base turn on him because he didn't hire him. If he does try to hire him and Scott turn's it down, he is screwed again. He is our AD, I want him to be successful. That leads me to the second part. I know I am in the minority, but I don't think it is a slam dunk that he would take the job. There now is word that Florida may need a new coach. It can be hard to compete with fertile recruiting grounds.This leads to a second problem. No matter how good another hire might be, part of the fan base won't want him to succeed because they want to be right about Frost. The win-win is Moos wants Frost and he comes. I just think the entire process is not a slam dunk. 2 Link to comment

Not saying they are not good on D, just wonder what their D/C could do against B1G teams. The teams they are playing now, except maybe Navy are not close to what we have in the B1G. Would have liked to seen that G Tech game played. Our D has been a problem for quite some time. Your not going to win much in the B1G without a decent one. GBR!!! Link to comment

Remember there were many people that wanted us to hire UCF's AD so we could get Frost. I understood what you said. I don't understand your reasoning. AD makes Frost an offer which is what many want. Frost turns it down. How is that on Moos? Because he's Moos and someone Frost doesn't want to work for? If an AD hires you as a coach, generally you'll get every opportunity to succeed and not be spuriously fired. 1 Link to comment
Enhance Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 The way I understood @Crusader Husker 's initial comment was that Moos would be screwed if he didn't offer Frost. If he feels Frost is not the best guy he has the fan base turn on him because he didn't hire him Link to comment

That makes sense but this didn't Quote If he does try to hire him and Scott turn's it down, he is screwed again. I really don't understand some people's comments. This isn't rocket science but we seem to come up with reasons why we can't get something done. Link to comment
