Wow just catching up on this story.  How pathetic of our AD and Coach if this story is legit, and how sad for our proud fan base. Outside of some kind of scandal involving recruiting or the coaching staff, I cannot think of much worst off-season PR than something like this.

The logic that says Frost and Moos are ducking Oklahoma is on par with the kicked-by-a-donkey level thinking that won't let Run The Ball Guy just go away. 

 

You honestly think that a team that gets stomped, routinely, by Illinois, Minnesota, Iowa, Northwestern, Indiana, Purdue, Colorado, Troy, Northern Illinois, TROY (!) is afraid of playing one of the best programs of the playoff era because they think they are going to lose?

He burned what to the ground? We just came off of losing to Iowa 56-14. Gave up 56 to Penn St the week before that. Gave up 54 to Minnesota the week prior to that....

He could have modified things to any current talent at the time and tried to be competitive while recruiting his guys. He chose to not to do that, and throw current players under the bus, complaining about the state of things and the culture.  That was his choice, right or wrong. A lesson for his guys, and himself, is that you have to deal with the consequences of your actions, not try to skirt obstacles in front of you like scary football teams.

 

There are thoughts flying around this is about another home game and money for the AD and the local economy, but they had to have known this would come off. If they didn't then none of them belong in a major college athletic program.  One small boost won't save the AD, and these businesses while they would benefit will have been surviving for 20+ months without a Husker game with fans already.

Well perception is reality.  Right now the perception is Moos is ducking OU.  To not anticipate that perception is shortsighted.  You don't sell out your brand for whatever up front scratch you can get from this move.   Remember the tough guy PR campaign with the Blackshirts alternate unis last year?   How do sell that now?
