Scarlet Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 This isn't apologizing for Frost so let's get past that but.... Is there something going on in Lincoln that needs to be identified, addressed and fixed before we possibly bring in a new coach and whoever that is walks into a situation destined to fail? It's just striking that each one of the past four or even five coaches seemingly couldn't ever punch above their talent and yet consistently laid eggs against outmatched teams. How many times has this program came out flat and listless regardless of who was coaching? The malaise hanging over this program has spanned the better part of 20 years. It like we've become the graveyard for coaches. Quote Link to comment

At one point we only settled for excellence now we settle for moral victories and a .500 record. And the .500 record is only those of us that expect more from the program. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yeah, I'm not saying you're wrong but it seems to me like our lack of concentration has cost this program a boatload of games over the years. Moreso than what other teams go through. We've underperformed our recruiting for years now. If it's coaching great but if it's something in the fishbowl that needs to be cleared up too then hopefully that's done before another coach comes in a flounders. Quote Link to comment

Correction, we excel at hiring s#!tty ADs that don't understand the program nor culture. Aside from Osborne's brief stints (which are kinda iffy), we haven't had a long term AD that understood the true importance of the football program since Devaney retired in 92. Quote Link to comment

We should expect a minimum of 6 wins most seasons. If I am not mistaken, TO never lost more than 3 games in a season during his 3 decade career. Quote Link to comment

I just love how TO himself basically gave Callahan a number of games he had to win. Which was more than Frost has achieved in any of his years here. Quote Link to comment

We're 5 years removed from winning 8+ games in 10 of 12 seasons. Our last 2 hires have just been trash. 1 Quote Link to comment
