Honestly, as the offense gets implemented, Nobraska will need to rely on the defense. Just like UCF had to in 2016. I’m predicting that Frost will eventually be forced to make his friend Chanander his first casualty, possibly next year.
Starting S Tre Neal to Nebraska
- Thread starter Poolside Knight
- Start date
Good lord I hope not. It goes without saying but Frost is going to have an extremely long leash, but if he has to start making staff changes in year 2 it won't go over well with the administration.
Meh, at this point I'm pretty used to it I guess.
There’s going to be a time someday when he has to fire someone, unless his coaching career is going to always go perfectly.
So if Tre Neal starts at Nebraska...that means UCF players are better than Nebraska's.
13-0 vs 4-8 already proved that.
No..it's a significant gain for Nebraska. Unlike Nebraska...UCF has depth. Our players are better than Nebraska's
But I thought all Nebraska players are 4 or 5 star phenoms and the problem's been coaching? Shouldn't take three years to turn a former dynasty around? It didn't take Frost that long at lowly UCF with our bad 1 and 2 star players. (sarcasm)
Do you even know we weren’t FBS 38 years ago? 20 years about. In 98 we went 9-3 and they didn’t invite us to a bowl.
Someone needs to tell UCF, that without Frost..... Milton never steps foot on UCF campus.
Neither would these guys:
Sorry I have to apologize for some of my Nebraska brethren. We are all not bottom feeding trolls as it might appear. Some are very bitter because we have been awful for quite some time and are just hoping to rise up and at least win half our games. You have to understand that most of them acting like total a$$es weren't even born the last time we accomplished anything meaningful on the football field. They are just full of UCF envy. They don't know what it is like to win a division or conference championship and can only dream that someday we might go to a NY6 bowl game. That would be very special! Once again my sincerest apologies for those bad apple NU fans that have come here and embarrassed our fanbase. Best of luck to UCF. #GoKnights #ChargeOn
How could he possibly know that? His Brainpower and football knowledge are very limited. The Troll Cornholios look up facts on google as quickly as they can and just throw anything out there.
How was I wrong? Despite what level you were playing at, it is still the truth. Not my problem that you all sucked too bad to be FBS.
A lot of new programs throughout football history started at the D-1 level. What's your excuse?
The truth is, Frost' offense was able to win in spite of Chin's terrible defensive scheme's
And that was with a couple of defensive NFL talented studs in Hughes and Griffen.
You will see how pitiful that D Coordinator you now have, really is. Something tells me that BIG schedule, will truly expose him.

You better get ready for a another bad year because you will be the dog in all those games. Your answer is UCF would win more games than Nobraska.
Tyjon Lindsey would easily start for UCF. I’m not dumb enough to believe that means Nebraska is far more loaded with talent. Nebraska signed three Florida four star recruits last year. When is the last time UCF did that?
I don’t think anyone is claiming UCF is a better historic team than Nebraska, just much better recently. 4 bowl wins in 38 years, but also 4 bowl wins (and 2 major bowls at that) in the past 8 years. Nebraska has 2 bowl wins and 0 major bowl wins in the same time frame. Like I have said before, congrats on inheriting a rich history but wake me up when Nebraska acomplishes something in the lifetime of the current generation of players and recruits.
You do realize that we have been D1 since only 1996, and from 1996 through 2003 we had a football team and not a football program. Sure, we have history before 2004 but that is the year we really started taking football seriously. So in a short 13 years we've accomplished quite a lot. Our upside is as high as any program in the country if given the opportunity. Prior to 1996 there are no bowls since we weren't D1. There are only actual playoffs to determine who is the champ....a concept FBS still can't grasp.
I will make an attempt at not being totally condescending just because you don't understand Florida recruiting. Florida is undeniably stacked with football talent....the success for UCF is in the ability to scout the lessor known hidden gems in their own backyard that don't get hyped with the subjective recruitment ratings. That is how UCF can be so successful with the sleeper 2 and 3 stars that would otherwise fall through the cracks. Just as one very small example, Blake Bortles played HS QB 5 miles from UCF, did not get recruited to play QB anywhere and ends up being a 3rd overall NFL pick. Sorry, you just cant do that from the the cornfields of bum f*ck Nebraska.......
Nebraska can’t do that? Or just doesn’t need to? Big difference. Of course...both fits. I see you didn’t answer my question. When is the last time UCF signed three 4 star Florida recruits in a recruiting class? I’ll wait.
All 4 and 5 star? Hardly. Nebraska's recruiting classes pretty much always land between 20 and 35 nationally. Had Frost been hired in 2015 then it wouldn't have been nearly the project it ia now. Riley screwed up the culture, the s&c program, and had no strategy in recruiting for building depth. Its why Frost is taking so many juco kids and transfers.
The answer is probably never. What’s your point? My question for you is what has all these 4-5 star recruits done for Nobraska? Your argument is irrelevant. You were 4-8 last year with a loss to Northern Illinois with a top 20-35 recruiting class for years
UCF would have blown Nobraska out last year with 2-3 star recruits and recruiting classes double that number
Now do you want to start a new argument discussing the discrepancies in resources and money
No doubt. Nebraska’s main issue for over a decade is the inability to develop said talent. Frost and company had zero issues with that at UCF which makes it very encouraging to finally have a staff that can recruit and develop.
Obviously Frost doesn't have that luxury in Lincoln, but its never mattered. Like most teams outside of Florida, Georgia, and Texas, Nebraska has always recruited nationally.
Don’t actually claim something before it actually happens. It’s apples and oranges
Anything could happen. It’s a whole different environment.
Frost’s classes last year and this year so far have been no better than past classes. As far as developing talent, who has he developed so far?
Pretty tough to judge when you haven’t played a game
What’s going to happen when your QB and undersized running backs get knocked out for the season playing physical big -10 teams week after week?
CANNOT! Unless they have someone spend full time recruiting Florida. Our coaches can hit most of these high schools in their spare time riding their bicycles. Nebraska coaches have to hop a flight on dedicated recruiting trips. UCF has Florida HS players regularly attend every home game. Can Nebraska do that. I will answer that for you. Absolutely NOT! Can Nebraska effectively scour Florida for the lessor publicized HS talent. NFW!!!
We don’t have any undersized running backs. How can you make such a post and In the same breath pimp Huepel who has zero experience at head coach and go on the claim he is better than Frost? Interesting.
Its the kind of statement that should never come from a Nebraska fan. Our strength was always player development and system just like UCF, not in stacking up on elite high school talent.
UCF has always benefitted from being in the fertile recruiting grounds of Florida and used that as an equalizer for what it lacks. Nebraska has to do the same thing, except our equalizer was always superior coaching and money. Its 2 sides of the same coin. Neither of us will ever be Texas or USC but that doesnt relegate our teams to the 2nd tier of FBS.
Nebraska fans like you can keep on pounding your chest about all of the 4/5 star players you win recruiting rankings with....UCF fans will keep bragging about about winning football games with 2/3 star players
Nebraska has always recruits nationally. No reason to believe Frost can’t continue to go into Florida and other parts of the country and find the “diamonds in the rough” trickled in with the 4 stars he is signing.
Just a few short years ago you all went winless and lost to Furman. Then came Frost and company and totally turned everything around. No reason to believe he can’t turn Nebraska into a winner eventually with his ability to develop talent and now being at a program that can pull in top talent around the country.
Not well. That doesnt mean it was the problem. Up until this year our AD has been an absolute dumpster fire since 2001 thanks to a chancellor who was openly critical of the idea of sports being a focus of the university. There was a lot of sabotage that went on.
I have to admit that you are certainly the most rational and logical pro Nebraska poster on this board by a long shot.
Nobody is pumping Heupel. Heupel just needs to not screw anything up in 2018 with all the returning talent
And how can all your fans say that Frost and is a better than Heupel since he’s never coached?? Goes both ways. Will he be as great if he goes 6-6 this year? 8-4 or 9-3 next year. Sounds like the same old Nobraska. Could Heupel win at Nobraska??? Who knows.
You Nobraska fans are as good as predicting the future as you are rehashing the past
