Frost is returning for 2022

[talaricohusker]

I am a little surprised at the Lubick firing but if your going to go for the big change go big or go home!!! By the way I don't think for one sec that frost was forced to fire any one and that he did it on his own which is a good thing in my eyes

I strongly disagree with several parts of this take.

 

I am not surprised it is from Cowherd.

He’s a jacka$$ that just wants clicks.

Not to wander too far off topic but occasionally I'll catch a bit of his show on at home and I just have no earthly idea how people watch that.

I have no idea what Frost’s restructured contract is going to look like, but it definitely needs to be more incentivised than what he currently has. If I were in Trev’s shoes, the numbers would look something like this…

 

Base salary of $1M  

 

Regular season bonuses (bonuses are cumulative)

• $1M bonus for winning 6 games     (total salary = $2M)
• $200K bonus for winning 7 games     (total salary = $2.2M)
• $400K bonus for winning 8 games     (total salary = $2.6M)
• $600K bonus for winning 9 games     (total salary = $3.2M)
• $800K bonus for winning 10 games     (total salary = $4M)
• $1M bonus for winning 11 games     (total salary = $5M)
• $1.2M bonus for winning 12 games     (total salary = $6.2M)

 

Postseason bonuses (bonuses are cumulative)

• $400K bonus for winning B1G West         
• $600K bonus for winning B1G
• $800K bonus for making CFP
• $1M bonus for winning CFP semifinal
• $1.2M bonus for winning CFP final

Sadly, some were calling for Verdizco and Held 2 years ago........

 

getting rid of al but Beckton was the best case scenario in this situation.  Hires will bring some excitement back to NU....

Yeah, but many of those same calls were also calling for Chinander, so more of a stopped clock scenario.

I wonder if Beckton was sitting in the room during the cannings

The decision to fire the offensive staff was made weeks ago by Scott and he let Trev know.

This is different than what you were saying earlier today.    ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Let me clarify, weeks ago is when Scott came to the personal decision to fire them. 

Essentially after the Minnesota game is when he knew it was time to let go. Told Trev and since then they have been inquiring with other coaches.

Two offensive staff members are being let go immediately after the season, and one is retiring. The players do not want to transfer. Many want to stay and made it known that there won't be a mass exodus. There will be some though, and the staff is for it. Trev and Scott have been talking to replacements for a little while. Oops. 

You’re a wizard, Harry!

[BoNeyard]

So now with Frost bringing in an entirely new staff, if he meets the required amount of wins next season, whatever that may be, he is going to seal the deal for an additional 3 years. 
 

Alberts is giving Frost something very rare in this business, a second chance. If Frost hits a home run with his hires and wins games next year to get us bowling and maybe at least in the conversation of a Big Ten West title in the later parts of October, Frost will have a rebirth as Nebraska’s head coach. I don’t mind this second chance at all.

And Chin silenced the doubters by developing and producing.

No doubt Frost looked at the continued progress by the D when a lot of the "star power" was going to the offensive side.......And was like WTH.  2 years late, but I'll take it.  

 

Yeah I agree should've happened before this year for sure but I will take it as well.

Can we just go ahead and flush all punters and kickers as well.  For me, it would just be a nice flush.  I'd go with no experience over what we have.
