lo country Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Simply put no...... As someone aptly put in the megathread, NU needs Frost more than he needs NU....... I think he checks the blocks and has the intangible of being a Husker and is the one link to our once proud and storied past. They're several others that could succeed, but wouldn't have that wow factor of Frost. The thing with Frost is getting him would be the biggest win the Huskers have probably had in 20 years. He is the media darling, the hottest coach, the SEC teams wants him and we got him....Think of the positive psychological benefits that would have for NU. It would catapult us to the head of the line in positive feel good stories going into a depressing bowl season.... Some others I'd name: Campbell Candle Venables Moorhead Niumatalolo Calhoun Fuente Morris Norvell Stoops Petersen If we are truly talking about dropping 5 mill on a coach, that really opens up some doors that were previously possibly closed. For the record, I want Frost. He checks the blocks and Husker nation will implode if it's not him....Although some of the above listed would be great IMO. 2 Quote Link to comment

As of today, Scott Frost is going to be a home run hire for any school. But Nebraska will be WAY more butt-hurt about not getting him than any other school. Remember however, there is a toxic culture in Lincoln that has to be purged. It has been festering for close to 20 years and has poisoned the well. This is about the Administration, Athletic Department and its staff, Coaches, culture, and players. Not just one coach. I am VERY hopeful that Bill Moos can become the Bob Devaney of this era. He needs to be, or we are going to become Kansas in football. There are many outside of our State who already consider us to be a bottom dweller of the Big Ten. Quote Link to comment
stargazer Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Kelley is going to UCLA.. makes perfect sense. He can keep anonymity he wants among a celebrity saturated community. Quote Link to comment

stargazer Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 So Spurrier is apparently on the UF search committee... you can bet he's pushing hard for the Nebraska alum with the high falutin offense. Quote Link to comment
Bornhusker Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Hell no he is not the only answer, it is silly to even think that. Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 We won't hear anything for at least 8 days..... The best to hope for is serious talk that UF is pushing for someone else or in contact with another person. It means,IMHO, that word has gotten back to UF that he isn't interested. Doesn't mean it is us, just means it's not UF..... Quote Link to comment

You seem to be pretty good at bemoaning the state of the program but not so good at imagining how it can be improved or even seemingly wanting it to improve. This “we’re not good enough to attract anybody worthwhile” sh#t needs to stop. 2 Quote Link to comment
stargazer Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 Everyone is forgetting about Mike Leach... that would end up being the "you're kidding me" hire by Bill Moos. Quote Link to comment
BaytownHusker Posted November 25, 2017 Share Posted November 25, 2017 His style offense is. Idk if he is. I would like to hope so. But he isn’t coming here. Quote Link to comment

Number 2 - the second step is giving the next coach on our coaching merry-go-round At Least 5 seasons to rebuild. How does that work for you? Quote Link to comment

So, you’re saying that we should’ve given Riley more time? Or Pelini? Or Callahan? Not sure I’m getting your point about a coaching merry-go-round or a specified timeline. Quote Link to comment
