Going to be tough to pull him especially if Florida comes calling. He won’t have to travel to recruit (which he said he’s not a fan of). He just got married 3-4 years ago. Is he going to take a job that requires him to be gone even more?! 

I hope Frost gets to NU but unless they pay him a hell of a lot, he’s gunna end up picking Florida for the recruiting reasons.

I’m sure they can come to some agreement behind the scenes. I just think this scenario is best for all involved. The program doesn’t take a hit for firing another coach, Riley goes out in a respectable manner and everyone moves on

and I think Riley's tired.  I'm not sure if he's ever lived under a microscope before.  His D.O.D. was written on his tombstone  when he brought his assistants with him and I don't really blame him..I think most coaches do it.   He just really had no idea

 
You have the whole 97' NC team Skype him this morning begging him to come home. Have Mr. Rimington in the room as well with a check for $3.5M

This is Frosts Cincinatti pregame press conference.

Compare his tone and assertiveness to Riley's post game Wisconsin press conference.

Dirk Chatelain had a good podcast with Scott's mom, Carol.  The podcast was centered around Carol's own amazing athletic career, but they do talk about Scott and his experiences.  Carol made a funny comment how she made Scott take speech class at Wood River, because they figured it would be a good way to learn how to handle speaking in front of people, and he would probably have to do that being a QB at a big college, etc.  I just thought it was something interesting that she pointed during the interview.

frost is going to have some insane leverage in terms of how much money we have to pay him. all the fans want him and will be very disappointed if we can't get a nebraska alum to come coach here.

Agreed - we've almost backed ourselves into a corner. The new ad will always be looked disfavorly on/questioned if Frost isn't the hire. Similarly, the new coach will always be compared to Frost - unless we get a homerun hire like Patterson which is slim to none.

Going to take more than $3.5MM. I still think we land him, but the price is going to be quite high. I also think we need to offer him enough to where it'll pain him to say no.

 
Why would Gary Patterson leave a university in a talent rich state in a power 5 conference? Which has high prestige and appeal right now.

I'm confused, what is the signing bonus?

It's an exaggeration some, but the $3.5M is. Just meaning we need to quit talking like money is an issue around here. Said in previous threads that it's laughable that our HC is paid less than over 40 head coaches!

Oh, sorry - I agree. $ is, or at least should be, a non-issue.

s#!t, he's angrier after their 30 point win, than our staff is after our 20 point loss.

In hindsight we should've hired him instead of Riley.

Edit- Doesn't sound like he's making crazy promises either....our coaches are doing a great job, want to win our conference.
