Moos and 6 Wins Goal in Jeopardy


Recommended Posts

Ulty: “...Frost didn't come to Nebraska as a stepping stone job. This is home. Secondly, if he has multiple losing seasons at Nebraska, which big name schools or NFL teams would be trying to poach him?”

Frost, regardless of what his Husker record turns out to be, remains a better coach than most college programs have right now. And for some programs he is MUCH better. He would be in demand - especially if there is a “better fit” somewhere. If Frost simply feels he isn’t getting it done in Lincoln, he might “for the good of the program” look to open the way for someone else. To date, he clearly was a better fit for Central Florida than he’s been for the Big Red. This isn’t all his doing or fault, just a statement of the results.

Not saying he actually wants to leave now or ever. Frost has maybe 30 years of coaching ahead if he wants it. That’s a long time. He pretty much has two possible futures. He either is the new Tom Osborne at NU, or he’s going to seek success in a new direction.

It was an act of courage for him to come to Lincoln, as much as “home” that might be. Strong guy willing to take on a big challenge with lots of pressure. Sometimes going home is the toughest thing you can ever do. And sometimes, home isn’t home anymore.

And sometimes you might be a 3rd year 16-20 HC when a coastal team offers you a few mill and a new start.

No way.

 

First of all, Frost didn't come to Nebraska as a stepping stone job. This is home. Secondly, if he has multiple losing seasons at Nebraska, which big name schools or NFL teams would be trying to poach him?

This is a great point. Another coach might lose interest after some losing seasons and just go through the motions while looking for another place to land. Win or lose, Frost is our guy. 

(Lose is spelled correctly)
