He also had tons of talent he couldn't win with. He definitely won't win 8 games with the talent we have now. Nobody could.I know Les Miles is 63yrs old but hear me out. WE need an immediate turn around. Frost is in the first year of a contract with UCF in his first head coaching gig ever. I just don't think he's quite there yet. But bring in a guy like Les Miles who never won fewer than 8 games in his 11 years at LSU. He's won a National Championship. He's had a consistent winning record. He is a good recruiter with a big name kids want to play for. His son plays on the team and he's had a year off to refresh and get ready to coach. Bring in a guy like Miles to keep our current recruits and get this ship turned around. Miles coaches for 4-5 years, retires, and Frost then has the HC experience and slides in.
I think Frost would have a harder time turning this around year 1 and recruiting than a guy like Miles would.
If nobody could win 8 games with the talent we have this year, why so hard on MR?He also had tons of talent he couldn't win with. He definitely won't win 8 games with the talent we have now. Nobody could.
No no no, we have been told that it takes at least 5 years to determine how well a coach is doing. :sarcasmI agree that Frost would have our current roster performing much better than it is. He took a UCF team that one ZERO games in 2015...that is right, ZERO games, and now has them performing as a top-20 team. Last I checked the players who are succeeding on the field this season are not all freshman that he just recruited, and most are with the talent he inherited from the prior staff that won ZERO games in 2015.
Still speculation at this point. He has to win at the highest level to be great. He looks like he has it but without results, we can't lump him in with the greats.Yes, Frost is a great coach. Watch his pressers and his mic'd up practice sessions and look at his results clear back to his UNI days. He IS a great coach now and he's only going to get better.
I hope it wasn't a whole lot.I have to go put a lot of money on Clemsom now.
In what sport?Clemsom is still undefeated.
In what sport?
And I meant to say was NOT a whole lot.
That said, with Clemson coming off a national title and undefeated yet again in 2017, there will be plenty of knocks at the door.
I guess I missed it. I was hoping you hadn't put a lot of money on Clemson since they got upset.That original throwaway comment was in response to this quote from that top 5 article a few pages back. I guess no one caught the reference.
