runningblind Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Is no one going to bring up the fact that Busch hails from Pender? We found Thurston people! 3 Quote Link to comment

huskerfan74 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Finally, we will see some much needed improvement in one of the worst special teams units in P5 football. 1 Quote Link to comment
84HuskerLaw Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 It’s good he named the guy but why wait all this time when he’s been there all along? If Frost was trying to get somebody else instead, that is not reassuring that he couldn’t get his guy. Now, Frost had to at least admit Special Teams is worthy of a coach. So will Frost actually let Busch have enough practice time and quality players to put good results out there? That’s the ultimate measure. These coaches are all paid extremely well and have nothing but time year around to get things done. It’s long overdue and the players and fans alike are owed Frost’s best effort. 1 Quote Link to comment

Busch was still being paid by LSU. Might as well let that contract run out before signing a new one. 5 Quote Link to comment
Toe Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Delaying a bit probably also let Frost keep his options open, in case he landed someone like Knox with both RB and special teams experience. 1 Quote Link to comment

Let me do everything I can to put a negative spin on anything remotely positive... Seriously man. To your last paragraph-. You do realize coaches can't work with players outside of their allowed practice times, right? Nothing but time year round?? You are out of touch. No matter how much negative crap you post, Frost will coach the team in 2022. Give it a rest and maybe give the new staff a chance. 17 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment

Treand3 Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 11 hours ago, Cdn Blackshirt Two said: I thought I read that we were potentially going to more 4-man fronts which could mean your DL coach [Dawson] now looks after (4) players on field, leaving only 2 or 3 LB's for (1) LB coach [Ruud], depending on if we're 4-3 or Nickel.... I could see that. Primarily because a 4 man front is more effective against nearly half of our schedule than a 3 man front is. When we aren't I could see Chins taking responsibility with Busch backing him up. Quote Link to comment

knapplc Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 Now put your top players on ST and make the unit an actual factor in games. No more backups and walk-ons manning special teams. I think it was DeJon Gomes who tweeted this past season after yet another ST debacle that if he was a Blackshirt he'd be in the coach's office demanding to be on Special Teams. I don't know if the coaches are keeping the top players off ST or the players don't want to do it, but that has to change. 5 Quote Link to comment
MinnwiscowaSker Posted January 5, 2022 Share Posted January 5, 2022 I don't know how these practices are run, but I'm guessing you have so many backups on ST because the starters are working on O & D during practice? That leaves the walk-ons and backups with free time??? Quote Link to comment
