** Scott Frost megathread all things SF***

The Chip Kelly offense (AKA the Scott Frost offense more or less) does not require a mobile quarterback. It does help and brings another dimension to what the offense can do. A smart and accurate quarterback that makes good decisions is all you need though.

For example, Nick Foles had a great season in Kelly's first season at Philidelphia in 2013. In 10 games as the starter, Foles completed 64 percent of his passes for 2,891 yards with 27 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. Foles is less mobile than any quarterback on Nebraska's roster.

 
Frost listed as #3 on Tennessee's Hot List according to an article from their Rivals' site but the update from yesterday says that "multiple sources from various camps" say Frost is headed to Lincoln.
Thanks, Jessica.

Lol jk man

 
To go along with my statements above. Something I find a little ironic and maybe its nothing. At the last press conference for scott frost. I think the last question was from a reporter who asked him what his favorite fry is. His response was Runza in lincoln.
Great. Now we are monitoring what fries the man likes. If he dips his fries in mayo then Florida can have him.

I dont want to say I have a source because I know everyone thinks it is a lie. So I will just say I have a really good feeling we offered Frost $5 million per year and are probably negotiating terms. Those dang gators probably offered him a little more than us before we made our first offer.


I think you just said it.....

 
Why would anyone want Mike Gundy over Frost?  Why would anyone think Gundy would leave his alma mater for Nebraska?


Because Mike Gundy is a proven coach with a great record while Frost is still an unknown. Thats why. And nobody does think he will leave it was just a poll in the Sipple article that said 50% of the people would be unhappy if MG was hired over Frost. Which in my opinion is ridiculous. But im not a Frost or bust guy like you are. 

 
Scott Frost is -200 to become the next Nebraska head coach. Riley fell way down for staying here next year. Chip Kelly is the second favorite at +300. 

Obviously all of that Vegas stuff means nothing for coaching searches, but you can tell the masses think highly of Scott Frost for P5 level jobs. 

 
Mike Gundy is a proven P5 coach. One of the better ones out there. I love the potential of Frost but it's a different animal having to play Ohio State, Michigan, PSU, Wisconsin etc. Having to compete with Urban Meyer is a tall task.

Plenty of "hot" G5 coaches flame out when they get to the big time.

Gundy wouldn't leave either, I agree there. 
UCF has a higher Sagarin ranking than every team in the B1G West except Wisconsin.

 
And what happens if Frost comes here and fails? Then who? Turner Gill? Zac Taylor? You know since we have to have former Huskers as head coach because anyone else is a mole sent to destroy the program.

 


Howard said. “We saw what it did to Urban Meyer when he was there."

I know he said he had some health issues, I just thought it was BS drummed up to take a year off while OSU imploded. It would be interesting to hear from him how Florida compares to Ohio State as far as pressure/fish bowl effect.

 
Great. Now we are monitoring what fries the man likes. If he dips his fries in mayo then Florida can have him.
Safe to say the reporter that asked that question does not care what fries he likes. They probably knew something about the contract negotiations and was baiting him to say lincoln, NE

Was this that Bianchi guy? He is the trashiest media person that I have ever seen. UCF people hate his guts. 

 
Also check out the 25 million dollar plus upgrade to the athletic facility at UCF.  

Building a lazy river and beach for the athletes. Total resort feel. 

I'm impressed with that AD.  Wants to win and has a vision.  

 
If Nebraska had a head coaching vacancy they’d at least mention us as a possibility, though both hate us so they wouldn’t say he’d come here. I think it’s professional courtesy to not suggest coaches for a school that is not yet searching for a coach, publicly.

 
There is no alternate universe in which to find the answers, but I wonder how much the cancelled UCF games added to SF's future paychecks? Georgia Tech might have been one of the toughest tests on their schedule (and would have surely bumped them from the Ranking that they now enjoy - had they lost). Even if they were not losses, those two cancelled games are games in which no UCF players were injured, which paid unknown dividends down the road. While those two hurricanes caused a lot of financial damage, they likely resulted in quite a windfall for Mr. Frost & Co.

That's your proof people, he's completely locked in and isn't going to entertain any offers and take a job midseason and he shouldn't. The only time he's going to listen to anything is probably after the season is over. Yes things could be going on behind closed doors, but to think he's just going to jump on another job midseason is pretty unrealistic. 

 
I'm curious as to why you would be surprised if Frost actually ends up here?  I would surprised if he didn't wind up here. I know I don't want Leach here. Kelly? Even though he wasn't the guilty party, the 'baggage' still clings to him.  Neither Leach nor Kelly understand Nebraska culture like Scott does.  Sometimes I think these sports personalities get busy with their jobs and end up a little behind on the most current news. The people on this board probably have more current info than they do. Anyway, interested in your reply. Thanks for dialoguing with me.  
I agree with you on Leach.  Although fun to listen too and pretty good coach, I am not sure he is the guy.  I wasn't saying that I would "want" either one, just that their names would make sense entering the conversation.

My take on Frost is based on nothing other than gut feeling.  Reading articles and listening to people whom I think "should" be closer to the situation than most, have me thinking that Frost is a long shot.  Way too many people and articles written about Frost at Florida or staying put.  I think that there is too much smoke surrounding those rumors to not take it serious that he doesn't have Nebraska first on his list.  He wasn't treated well here at all and really doesn't have a strong connection as we would like him to have.

 
Folks, 

This is your like every 4 day reminder to be civil to one another. Attack the message, not the messenger. If you want someone to stop doing something, the best way to do so is to ignore it. So instead of reacting to off topic posts, don't attend to them. 

Additionally, please try to keep the conversation focused on Frost as much as possible. We've given quite a bit of leeway, but it's drifting hard again. 
How dare you try to introduce civility into our anarchy!

They have entire segments devoted to hot seats and coaching carousels. They don't have any courtesy in my opinion, they need views.

I have said it before, but I will say it again. There is smoke for Florida,  because that job is OPEN. Nebraska still has a head coach. See how much smoke there is when Nebraska has an opening.

 
I cant embed tweets to save my life... but take a gander at darren heitners twitter right now. Posted some interesting things regarding the frost chip saga.

If I were Scott, I wouldn't take the Oregon job anyway - he'd be always compared to Kelly which is a much more recent coach to compare against vs comparing him to Tom.  At NU he'll be compared to MR, BP, BC, Frank. 
Every head coach at Nebraska will absolutely and unequivocally be compared against Tom Osborne. Especially Scott Frost who has essentially been immortalized into the legend that is mid-90s Nebraska football.
