It wasn't 1 full cycle worth and he took over a better team. If signing the best class in years last year and being on track to sign and even better class this year isn't enough I don't know what to tell you. This staff obviously puts emphasis on recruiting if you pay any attention. This weekend was a huge weekend for it. 1 Quote Link to comment
Cdog923 Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Frost is still playing with one and a half arms tied behind his back, in terms of recruiting. He only has, basically, a class and a half to work with. That, coupled with the absolute train wreck of a 2017 class, has him behind about three or four 8 balls. 3 Quote Link to comment

Also Dabos first 2 classes were 36 and 27 lol Alabama was 12 the year before Saban arrived 2 Quote Link to comment

We’ve had recruits in town when we’ve gotten lit up before. Want to be a elite program? Go do the obvious. Hire elite coordinators, position coaches, recruiters. The lack of emphasis on recruiting and not having a elite recruiting staff is never ever ever going to work in Lincoln. The staff Frost brought isnt that outside of a few and he’s paying the price. Until Nebraska gets a elite staff across the board its the same old story. Nebraska continues to be its own worst enemy. You get what you deserve when you refuse to do the obvious. Money is not a problem. The fan base is the only thing carrying this program at this point Quote Link to comment
BIG ERN Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 How easy is it to throw a TD fade on Bootle? I feel he has given 10 of those up in his career. One of those was a great catch, but the other was a drop in the bucket EZ throw. I def can't stand when we keep Barry and Honas in on 3rd and long and have them running down the field covering receivers. Smart defense 1 Quote Link to comment

Wisconsin begs to differ. Tennessee has had great recruiters in their past and look where they are. 3 Quote Link to comment

Seven years ago Its time to lay on the line what it is we want from this team. If it’s championships then we need to switch models. Quote Link to comment

Nebfanatic Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Capo I'm still waiting on the name of the recruiting genius who could recruit top 10 classes at Nebraska coming off of back to back 4-8 seasons and pushing 2 decades of mediocrity. Could we be doing better in recruiting? Some sure. We have missed a bit at OLB but outside of that we have really done well across the board. You keep acting like this staff is a bunch of bums on the recruiting trail but that is false. 2 Quote Link to comment

Dabos half cycle was 36 and first full cycle was 27. Frost is doing better than Dabo at 23 and 18! We are well on our way. Maybe try facts instead of throwing crap at walls to see what sticks. 4 Quote Link to comment
