Had talented teams at UCF with a couple of great QBs especially Milton. Ran the score up on UConn. Karma’s a bitch.

He inherited those teams too, right?

Paul Chryst at Wisconsin is on the hot seat also

Inherited George O’Leary’s rebuild 0-11 team. Whether Frost developed the young talent or brought better I am not sure. O’Leary had good success as well.

Nice payday. He's either gonna end up on Saban's staff or on a NFL squad as a specialist for a few ticks, then end up as a HC somewhere at the FBS level

Frost recruited McKenzie Milton when he was hired by UCF and he became the starter during the 2016 season. On the 2017 team, he recruited the QB, top 3 rushers (includes Milton), and some of the top receivers.

Personally, I think Frost had better athletes at UCF than he had at Nebraska even though the recruiting rankings are higher at Nebraska. Since 2018, UCF has had 12 NFL draft picks (10 non-linemen) and Nebraska has had 8 NFL draft picks (3 non-linemen). For whatever reason, he could not get it done at Nebraska, but most of his losses were close losses. He will be college head coach again, maybe at UCF as they tire of Gus Malzahn.

I assume Ferentz is untouchable....but Iowa has struggled mightily.

 

[LBird33]

I think Diaco has a shot

 

[MilliniumPrince]

The unholy Trinity of Mayfield, Darnold, and McCaffrey inability to stay healthy will probably have Rhule looking for a job by Thanksgiving. He may not but out at that point, but the boxes will be ready to be packed.

 

[DoctorWho85]

Frost's offense works in the Big 12, Pac 12 and G5 schools. It absolutely gets dominated in B1G, SEC and probably the ACC

 

[Waquoit]

Still, 0-11 is 0-11.

Is Alvarez still in charge there? Chryst I believe was handpicked by Alvarez.

Whenever someone mentions Diaco, we should all have a shot.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

The media covering for Trev Alberts making an absolutely idiotic decision to not wait until after the Indiana game to save $7.5 million.

 

[Get a Job]

I was gonna say anyone who mentions Diaco should be shot...

The media covering for Trev Alberts making an absolutely idiotic decision to not wait until after the Indiana game to save $7.5 million.

Yeah....it seems pretty crazy to not just wait a few more weeks. There really isn't much of an advantage to fire someone this early. Other than appeasing cranky donors.

 

[BigTenFan]

When you are getting 100million a year from Fox....what's another 7.5 million?

 

[DoctorWho85]

Nebraska should have never fired Bo Pelini.

 

[Buffett10]

Nebraska should have never fired Bo Pelini.

Winning 9 games a yr isn’t good enough for the fan base or donors

 

[LBird33]

I wish we could win 9 games a year

 

[DoctorWho85]

Winning 9 games a yr isn’t good enough for the fan base or donors

They'd most likely still be winning 9 games a year under Pelini even in the B1G

 

[pepband99]

The media covering for Trev Alberts making an absolutely idiotic decision to not wait until after the Indiana game to save $7.5 million.

You don't think he simply went to a list of known donors and asked for the cash, in the hopes of getting top candidate first? This was probably hours of work, no more.

 

[Bongo Fury]

They were being decent to Frost by giving him the extra money. They can afford it.

 

[nelsonmuntz]

How many need-based scholarships for students could have been funded with Trev Alberts’ temper tantrum?

I bet every Nebraska student that has to drop out because they can’t afford college appreciates this sentiment.
