lo country Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I remember when Frost was hired. To paraphrase, if you want to work hard and put in effort this will be the most fun playing football you will ever have. If not, this probably isn't for you.....With the roster flip, comments and performance, it would appear that Frost's way was not for a lot of guys..... 6 Quote Link to comment

Came from a place with pretty decent credibility as a former player and within pretty short time he was no longer with the team. This doesn’t surprise me to hear something similar. Did he start a change.org post on Facebook? Those seem very effective. 1 Quote Link to comment
JJ Husker Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Sorry, I can't quit laughing about the thought of a player petitioning for shorter/easier practices....on a Scott Frost led team. If that actually happened... Quote Link to comment

"Leaders" calling for mutinies during cold practices, "leaders" partying too much, "leaders" spending too much time with the dopey smoke. I'll admit, after last year I wanted to pull the trigger on SF and Co. But after hearing what I have, from a credible source, I'm willing to give this staff as much time as they need to clean house. It may be a long haul... Thoughts? On a positive note, Ozigbo apparently had a peace pipe attached to his hand during the Riley years. Once Frost came in, changed his attitude and focus and we saw how his senior season turned around for him. Quote Link to comment

Well, to Tyrin's credit he probably needed to go see a house or meet with a contractor to talk about sink options in a kitchen. Quote Link to comment

Maybe the team should start an internal organization...or even a club, dare say, to address this. I mean, it's time these kids should hold each other accountable and start by asking "do you really want to hurt me"? And each mister, man...I bet they would move away like a runaway train and say "yeah, I'll tumble for ya." And when that happens, our karma, chameleon-like, would change instantly. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

ANSWER: It's a matter of expectations. The army still has 18 and 19 year old kids. Insisting otherwise doesn’t make it so. Quote Link to comment
