That’s all I’ve got to say. I didn’t come here to go 6 and 6. That’s one thing. The other thing is you can’t do it over night. The third thing, I’m still learning about the last transition and what was here with regards to players and all that kind of thing. I go back to my thing earlier. If it’s dormant, it can come back to life because the brand is solid.” Edited November 3, 2017 by BIG ERN 1 Quote Link to comment

No pro style QB, well we have one now? Is he learning about the dreaded toxins? Is anything better then 6-6 keep Riley? Maybe he views 5-7 in the first year as unacceptable so he wants to look at the transition? The transition comment causes me concern Quote Link to comment

brophog Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Any word on if he had a pooper scooper in his hand. Quote Link to comment
Pedro Guerrero Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Maybe he wants to figure out why the last transition didn’t go smoothly so when they start the next transition it doesn’t go in the ditch again. Quote Link to comment
I.M. OLD Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 I read it as give HIM 5 years not give RILEY 5 years. Sounds like he wants to hire another coach and give him 4-5 years to put it together. 2 Quote Link to comment
TGHusker Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 This made me comfortable. I think we are going to be fine wt Moos' selection - Scott Frost or not. You have to listen to the fans, and especially these fans, they are very passionate and some are very knowledgable, especially former players and those who have been involved in the program,” Moos said. “That’s good. Those are all good signs. I know a little about football and having been around it all my life and major college football for a great part of it, I know what to look for. I know what could be a snag here or there. That’s why I wanted to make sure I went on that trip. I won’t be doing a lot of glad-handing on Saturday. I’m going to be observing some more of it. and this: “Certainly if there is going to be a coaching change, you had better have things lined up,” Moos said. “These days of a 45-day search and 22-person search committees, you’re going to be left in the dust. All the good ones are going to be gone.” “As far as football goes, this is my fourth program, and all three of the ones before weren’t even close to the shape this one is in right now and look at them now — by the time we left they were winning championships or darn close to it. So, we’ll have some fun. Quote Link to comment

In otherwords he expects a big turn around quickly. Check back in 5 years and then make a judgement on how well his replacement did. 2 Quote Link to comment

The Dude Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 We all know you were hired to fire Riley and hire Frost. But I get it, you have to act busy. Most of us do that at our jobs. 1 Quote Link to comment
