sad!

They actually are making incremental progress. Problem with not firing him is that they could win 8 or so next year and then are stuck with Frost for at least another year.

He has gone 3-6, 3-6, 3-5 and now 1-6 in conference and was just retained.
I thought he’d be good for them when hired but they have been absolutely awful in what is a pretty weak division.

It’s not. A lot of close losses this year and when I watch, they look to have some good players. I didn’t notice that the previous couple of years. They are losers tho and program morale seems very low.AtomicDawg said:

Obviously Frost isn’t a great coach, but I don’t think he’s abysmal either. He was a grand slam hire for them that hasn’t worked out and it’s ugly all the way around. -
They should probably fire him. He’s not leading them to the top. I do think he could win 8+ next year and after how bad they have been, I bet that gets him another year or two.

Isn't this the same guy who said you can't recruit 5* talent to Eugene? The Scandy (no offense @NorwegianHusky ) has limitations.

They must be getting Stockholm Syndrome or some other mass disorder in Lincoln. Some people say that Lincoln is like an isolated college town, but it's a quick drive from Omaha, I found out. The museum in the stadium grounds is impressive. It's amazing they've taken the Frost era this far even, let alone extending it. Never hire an alum or an assistant with little or sketchy head coaching experience. It just doesn't work most of the time (Frost and Lake I give you).RoadDawg55 said:They actually are making incremental progress.

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 They don't have the best facilities, their stadium is outdated, and Lincoln Nebraska isn't a destination city.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.

well, none of the college towns in the Big-10 is a destination city. I was actually surprised how close Lincoln is to Omaha. It's not like Bellevue to Montlake but about like Mount Vernon to Montlake.greenblood said:I think this is more of a Nebraska problem than a Scott Frost problem.

Frost needs to do what Dr Tom finally had to do. Cheat
