USC could have to play Utah twice. I also figure that ND and UCLA will both have things figured out by the end of the season. Don’t sleep on the trip to Oregon St. in 2 weeks. They are sneaky good. Divisions are pointless for college football now. Maybe it helps with travel for the MAC or a conference like that. But what does divisional alignment do for the B10 at this point?

It’s kind of a shame it’s worked out this way for Frost, and really for Nebraska in the B10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddha Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 i thought frost was a total home run for nebraska. turns out he's their brady hoke, without that first season when brady had a magic horsehoe up his butt and michigan somehow won 10 games.

casimir Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 It seems odd to me that he’d be fired before September is over. I get that losing this weekend is bad, but if the situation was that close to it’s tipping point, it seems like a new coaching staff should have been assembled after last season.

I had similar thoughts. Even if you decided now that he was done, why make the move now? Anointing his assistant as interim coach is just declaring the 2022 season a wash. That’s not good for morale, recruiting, or retention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleterious Posted September 12, 2022 Author Share Posted September 12, 2022 They had no choice but to do it now. Everyone knew once they lost this weekend that he was going to be fired. It was a matter of when, not if. Think about potential future coaches watching this play out. What if they let Frost twist in the wind for 3 weeks just to save a couple of bucks? A Nebraska legend like Frost? A guy who won them a NC as a player? If they do him dirty like that to save money, how are they going to treat someone like me if it doesn't work out? They paid $7.5M for good public relations. Cost of doing business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motor City Sonics Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 Couple of points on Scott Frost. When he was hired Harbaugh was struggling to get to Indy and it looked like it was just never going to happen. I thought with Frost being in the West that he was going to come in and do what Harbaugh did and get his team to Indy (to be destroyed by the East team). I thought we'd be watching something that we can't have like watching Pujols get celebrated and have this surge of home runs while Miggy can hardly walk anymore and goes out with a whimper. The opposite happened. Look at Frost's history with onside kicks ....... then you'll see why the Northwestern game was a fireable offense. If Mickey Joseph comes in with 9 games left and wins 6 of them, do they keep him? I mean, anyone in the West is beatable. I know the names thrown around are Mark Stoops from Kentucky and Matt Campbell from Iowa State and the coach from Kansas..............I don't know that Nebraska is an upgrade at this point. If Matt Rhule is not at .500 or better by week 6 or 8 in Carolina, he's going to be fired. That might be the guy for Nebraska. I'm enjoying this. The two reasons they got a share of the 1997 title were Tom Osbourne's retirement sentiment and they had an illegal TD in a close game where one of their guys kicked the ball up in the air on a touchdown. It should not have counted and they would have lost that game. So screw Nebraska. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you referring to the contract buyout? I did hear about this in more detail yesterday. So, it was, what $15M that Nebraska would owe Frost if this occurred before October and only $7.5M if he were fired after September? So, yeah, Nebraska did the right thing here by just getting it over with now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deleterious Posted September 17, 2022 Author Share Posted September 17, 2022 Nice behind the scenes look at Arch Mannings official visit to Texas. The Longhorns hosted 9 recruits that weekend and spent $280,000. They hosted 14 more the following weekend for another $350,000. So $630,000 on two weekends and 23 recruits. 12 of the recruits were already committed to Texas. Of the remaining 11, 9 ended up going to Texas. So money well spent I suppose. Inside the Texas spending blitz that hooked Arch Manning and a No. 2 recruiting class Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
