Nebraska Doubles Down on Frost

[SCKnight]

I Guess the idea that if SF can't do it nobody can.. Gets a 2 year extension. It is probably good to show confidence in the coach, but really, with 3 years still left was it necessary?https://www.espn.com/college-footba...cott-frost-2-year-extension-running-deal-2026

 

[Happy Hands]

They've shown improvement. You can't expect a team to do what UCF did while he was here. Most teams take 4-5 years to turn around. FSU was dumb to think a coach could fix the mess there in two years. Frost is going to have to break with his DC, but they'll be back.

They aren't going to do anything if they can't find a QB and be better than the #73 rated defense.

 

[Ucfmikes]

Recruiting is down.

Frost’s offense hasn’t been proven to be successful in Big-10 play. Especially, if you can’t get the Athletes from the warm weather states. Chinander is not a good defensive coach

Now, they have Minnesota to deal with and a few other improved teams. Doubt that their ceiling is much more than a rare division title

They should beat a Terrible Maryland team next week and have to upset Iowa to be bowl eligible

They wasted 2 years of Martinez’ eligibility

 

[muckdawg24]

Need more depth on the o line and overhaul the defense and step one is firing Chinander

Very true, I wish we were showing that improvement. Like frost or not he took over a dumpster fire.

What was done in the past can take years to correct, especially for a team like Nebraska. Frost is showing he can get them better, how long? Ehhh, even great coaches take time to correct years of mismanagement. This is why I'm worried about having heup at the helm.

Contract Extension was likely worded as follows.....

"If you sign this 2 year extension worth $10 million you agree to fire your BFF Erik the moment the season ends"

I'll take exception to the idea that his offense hasn't proven effective in the Big10. OSU runs a similar offense and nebraska just put up 500 yards against a top 5 defense. Nebraska left 24 points on the field today due to mistakes and frosts ago.

Frost will thaw, Heupel freezes!

Frosts postgame interview sounded like a guy who isn't far from firing assistants.

Good. Some of them are subpar baggage.

 

[Crazyhole]

Good. Some of them are subpar baggage.

This week he kicked a senior off the team who had 3 games left in his career. Sounds a little bit cold but kind of demonstrates that he's tired of the BS.

Chinander used to get roasted on this board on a daily basis, even during the undefeated season. And for good reason.

Other than Chinander, who? DeWitt is the only one I look at and see major deficiencies in. Too early to tell with Austin. Fischer and held look like they are the real deal. Walters has nothing to work with but seems to be a good coach.

Austin did a lot of good work with what was the worst performing OL in FBS when he got here. If CSF cuts him loose would love to see him replace Elarbee.

To say he's pissed at Carlos as well would be an understatement. Unless you play for the Jets or the Colts, what football player tells the coaches they're not healthy enough to play after practicing the whole week?

 

[SCKnight]

Yeah because improving over perfect is possible

 

[GoKnights2003]

Nobody's perfect!

I know you're not one of us but spot on crazy ass!

3 losses is far from perfect!

 

[SCKnight]

3 losses is far from perfect!

Perfect was last regular season. hard to improve on that

 

[GoKnights2003]

Oh you mean 17? We lost to LSU in 18 And I agree that wasnt reg season. However a 3 loss season this year is a FAAAAAR cry!

You could tell he wasn't thrilled with his in the postgame conference.

Normally a new coach is expected to see improvement by his third year. 2020 will be interesting.

The season is not over yet. USF is a young team so we will get their best on the last game of the season

What's the alternative Dan?

Yes a far cry from perfect. Can't improve on perfect

 

[Poolside Knight]

either way it will be interesting to follow how Nebraska's Program turns out in the next few seasons. You got guys like Herbstreit who lust for Tradition and think that alone should give them the right to be good again but then you have most others that say it's a different era with Conference payouts, exposure, & demographics. Recruiting is different today, I know T. Fischer is trying to bring in some FL guys this class

Chinderella had to go. This week's highlights shows poor DB tackling. Something we've cleaned up since he's gone.

 

[UCF_SystemsEng]

So at least to date the NCAA has successfully imposed a salary cap (tuition, fees, books, room, board, FCOA stipend) on student-athletes in the name of fair competition amongst schools and to limit expenses, why don't they impose one on Head Coach salaries, counting at least 50% of buyout money against the schools cap?

I will hang up and listen.

Talked to a buddy of mine who is pretty close to the program. He is saying that Chins is going to get a pass because there is no NFL talent currently on the defense.

When does the NFL talent get there?

One day after never. They had nobody drafted last year

Maybe they should just skip tuition books, room board and go to straight salary. Don't worry about them going to school even. Why not? Just make it a semi-pro league. Those who can pay can play. Everyone pays taxes on their salaries. Remove the school end of things in everything but name. Then we can see what players and coaches are really worth.

So, are you for or against having salary caps on coaches if the players compensation (regardless of it's magnitude) is capped?
