GlobalHusker Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I think the uni leadership was smart to hire Albert’s. Just in case, A Nebraska guy that bled big red will fire a guy that bled big red. Not the easy thing to do. But acceptable since it’s coming from one of our own. 1 Quote Link to comment

Archy1221 Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 As long as Martinez goes with him. Otherwise it will be the same story with a new coach next year. 2 Quote Link to comment

I think most would "forgive" him by going this route and not making Trev let him go and still collecting the $20mil. A deal is a deal, but this place is special to him. Why take all that money when he knows he hasn't held up his end of the bargain. He doesn't like seeing what's going on either. In the post-game presser when asked a question about fans, he responded with (I'm paraphrasing) his gratitude towards the fans and having the opportunity to coach at his alma mater. I don't think he said "we're close" once. I think he knows it may be time to get away from football and spend more time with his family. But, this is pure speculation on my part. I don't know anything. Just trying to put myself in his shoes and mostly, I'm just disappointed that this is not working out. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment

A new coach would never let Martinez set foot on the field again. Frost is the only coach in modern history that would still be letting Martinez start for the program. 1 Quote Link to comment
VectorVictor Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 Keep Frost, but cull underperforming assistants (like Verduzco) and bring in experienced B1G coaching talent. Also encourage Martinez to transfer and get someone experienced in the portal (or from Juco) to be QB1 if Smothers isn’t up to snuff… Quote Link to comment

I think IF he were to resign, it would be to truly ride his ego out the door. He met a match coaching in B10 and the conference won. one or two freakin tweaks here or there and were singing a different tune. And I hate it when you all bag on Martinez. He’s a confused as we are. After 4 freaking years a pattern has emerged. When bad Martinez comes out, you know it’s not going to get better. He’s not good desperate, but he can also be a wizard. What’s wrong with hitting the reset button and playing a back up for a few series? 1 Quote Link to comment

He picked them. He’s responsible for them. 2 Quote Link to comment

I OC/QB (sole control) Tom Herman-knows the B1G, was at OSU, wining record as a HC, can do QB's -OR- Jamey Chadwell- Innovative scheme. W have the players that would excel in the system. Relational. Would make football "fun at "NU" OL-Ed Wariner- Resume to lengthy to list. Been around good programs. Hard nose RB-Ron Brown Never had an under performing RB. All ran hard and "next man up" wasn't just a slogan. ST/Safeties- Bill Busch. Great recruiter, under Cally the ST's and DB's played very well. He is already "here" OLB-Mike Eckler- Now at UT. Also did ST's....Coached Lavonte David....Nebraska's D's were solid.... Verduzco, Held, Austin, Dawson, would be gone. Fisher to coach DB's Quote Link to comment
Glendower Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 It's gotten worse with each coach; so, if we're going to look awful, it might as well be with a Nebraskan. Quote Link to comment
gobiggergoredder Posted October 31, 2021 Share Posted October 31, 2021 I’ll give Frost one more shot. Regardless of how season ends. If he goes and gets Rattler I’ll give him another year. Otherwise pack your bags brother. Quote Link to comment

That would take a lot of courage to admit that things aren't going they way he'd hoped and Nebraska deserves better, and I think the fan base would respect him for it... but I don't think he'll do it. 1 minute ago, gobiggergoredder said: I’ll give Frost one more shot.
