I know nothing about Washington football so who knows if that was all on him . He was a pretty damn good recruiter for Washington. All the players he recruited are either RsFr or TrFr currently. He had 1 player he recruited transfer and the name might sound familiar to Husker folks, QB Colson Yankoff. Here is who he landed for Washington. 2018: Spiker - .9703 4* Yankoff - .9564 4* ( transferred to UCLA ) Osborne - .9180 4* Lowe - .9094 4* 2019: McDuffie - .9442 4* Turner - .9007 4* Davis - .8796 3* 5 1 Quote Link to comment

Coaching, he said, left little time for anything else. Typical work days ran from 6 a.m. to midnight, seven days a week, during the season, and even when you did have time off, you were constantly sending text messages, taking phone calls and sending emails. “It’s always hard to leave coaching and the relationships you’ve had, but, at the same time, this was kind of thought out; this wasn’t a whim,'' he said. "To me, there’s stuff more important than football, and this lets me explore something different.” That doesn't inspire confidence about his commitment to football, he left coaching in 2019, maybe he found his spark again. It’s one of the things you say when you want out. Like “I want to spend more time with family”. It’s been done by Urban Meyer 64 times. Furthermore, Chris Peterson just stepped down this year. I wonder if something is broken in that program. 2 Quote Link to comment
teachercd Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 I know these guys LOVE to talk about how much they work...but if you are working 6am until midnight as a CFB coach...you are a moron. Steve Spurrier used to make fun of the coaches that did that and for good reason. I get WANTING to be at the office, because you are hanging with your friends, you have catered meals all day long, you can watch sports all day...but the 15-18 hour day thing is sooooo dramatic. 3 1 Quote Link to comment

There had been a little smoke over the past couple years that Peterson was starting to get burnt out and he was vocal after UW's Rose Bowl loss to Ohio State that he was pretty unhappy. While hardly the straw that broke the camel's back, the transfer portal was the bane of Peterson's existence. He hated it. I just think he was ready to be done. He's made tens of millions, he's in his mid 50s. It was time for him to get out. I do think he'll coach again as either a position coach or maybe a HS coach but I'd be surprised if he ever was a HC for a major college program/NFL again. The only thing that would make me take it back is if the Seahawks came calling. To stay on topic, I'm extremely surprised that Lubick is joining the staff as I figured he'd stay put in Fort Collins. He'll be a good addition to the staff and knows HCSF's schemes inside and out. 1 Quote Link to comment

Huskers93-97 Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Is it possible that frost also wanted an OC that he saw potential in to trust enough to call plays in the future? I don’t think he is ready to give up playcalling yet but if he gets to a point he knows he needs to be more of a CEO to take us to the next level. 4 Quote Link to comment

Yeah, they’re not shingling roofs or screeding off concrete, they're sitting around talking on the phone, watching TV and eating little smokies. They should give people who do real labor a break with their work stories. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Lol. How do they do it? It takes real dedication and hard work! 1 Quote Link to comment

Same with Bob Stoops. After coaching under Snyder, he always talked about not putting that much pressure to work long hours on his assistants. Says it’s not worth it 1 Quote Link to comment
Dagerow Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 I don’t know much about the guy, but Frost said “He is the only person I considered for this position,” and to me, that speaks volumes. 1 Quote Link to comment
