Cornhuskers keeping Frost

Maybe Madison WI is a "destination city"

I think this is more of a Nebraska problem than a Scott Frost problem. They don't have the best facilities, their stadium is outdated, and Lincoln Nebraska isn't a destination city. All Nebraska has is tradition, and that tradition is getting less and less relevant with each mediocre season. Tom Osbourne isn't walking through those doors anymore. College football has changed, and unfortunately, it has left Nebraska behind.

You must really like frost. The stadium is not a reason their losing. They pick it and it’s a better atmosphere than most anywhere else.

Every time I watch Nebraska they kind of suck on offense and blow coverages or assignments on defense.

Neither is dead center in the middle of Pennsylvania ... Happy whatever. Norman Oklahoma. Most of the Big 10. Most of the Big 12. Much of the SEC.

Surprised to see this coming from a Duck. The "middle of nowhere" is an old Auburndawg Doog staple. There was a time when Nebraska was pulling the best talent out of LA to come play in Lincoln. It was what it is now back then.

Omaha is a big city

When nowhere is Mt. Vernon-to-Montlake away from kind of somewhere, nowhere is still nowhere. Otherwise, I'll have to rethink if Aberdeen is really a nowhere.

I used to think of Lincoln as the middle of nowhere, just literally like a football field in cornfields like the Wizard of Oz, but it's an easy coast to Omaha. I drove cross country. I saw a lot of nowhere. A LOT. Lincoln isn't nowhere.

Have just enough interest in this for one more post and then out: we should define what we're talking about.

There's Forks "nowhere" and there's Norman, Oklahoma or Happy Valley nowhere. Neither of the latter are tiny little towns out on the prairie or whatever. They're all going to be bigger and less isolated than, say, Walla Walla.

But when Auburndoog is lauding UW's locale in a big and vibrant city where shit's going on, he's also saying these other places suck by comparison and thus are recruiting disadvantages by comparison.

My point is that NGAF if the program is a winner. There aren't many other reasons for a kid in LA with options to find himself in Lincoln other than to play for Big Red. And when they had it rolling, it wasn't a problem.

At this point Pellini looks good to them.

They fired Pelini for winning nine games a year. Ten years later Frost might, if the stars align, he might get them to eight or nine wins. Nebraska is (almost) back (to nine wins)!

It's stupid to hire alums or present assistants. It almost guarantees failure.
