I think his second season at UCF is an anomaly and he is an average coach at best.  He hasn't shown anything in his two years here that makes me think otherwise.

Some of these guys have had 3 head coaches or were recruited for different positions.  Riley wasn't given enough time as well.  We have had 2 seasons of lame duck recruiting.  Fired coach and his staff and had to recover in recruiting.  That means that in the last 5 years we have had two seasons that really didn't matter for recruiting.  Frost coaching at UCF for there glory bowl game against Auburn didn't help either.  We have to see Frost at least given 4 total if not 5 seasons to get results.

Oh, so YOU don't believe Scott Frost is a great Coach?  You know more than these guys?

I do question some things that  Frost and his staff are doing or not doing.  I watch other college teams play and also see things in those games that are questionable.  The football that is getting played now is not the football we grew up watching and therefore throw out all common sense approaches to the game.

It was also a little concerning to me when UCF didn't miss a beat the year following Frost.

Frost and Co are not adjusting to power 5 football. Plain and simple.  Getting up for a game or 2 at UCF is not the same as week in and week out of power 5 football.

You mean like Oregon didn't miss a beat after Chip Kelley or how OSU hasn't lost a beat after Urban Meyer? The year after is not the year to judge

He did inherit a much better situation:

10-4

12-1

9-4

0-12

Then he went 6-7 and 13-0

Evidence trumps opinions and awards.

 

He is 27-20 and he and his staff look lost in this conference

 

Reality is Bo does not go 4-5 with this schedule or roster

So those awards were not based on any evidence?  Those 21 first place votes were not evidence based?

Yeah, I agree totally that the UCF players he inherited were much better than (some of) these NU players, especially in the areas of attitude and commitment.

So very true.  Not to mention he developed Shaqueem Griffith into a game changer.

You don't go 12-0 by accident.  You don't even go undefeated in high school by accident.  

DDaniels looks like if Suh had fat slow little brother.

Far as I know the door to the weight room is always open.

Sun can shine on a dog's a$$ anyday.

 

Im still not convinced our S&C needs to be where it's at.
