I'm not convinced "back then" is some kind of coded message. I'm thinking it's the kind of phrase everyone uses to distinguish the past from the present.

I'm not saying it's a coded message. I think it's something that Moos has talked about and it slipped as part of his talking points. What else in the context of what he was asked would he be referring to. What is "Back then" referring to in his career? He wasn't looking to hire Frost when he was an unproven coordinator at Washington State. And Nick Bahe didn't ask how he felt Scott had grown in his coaching career since being a coordinator. It was mingled in with his talking points and leads me to believe it has been a part of his conversations since he's been at Nebraska. Not trying to stir up a rumor, but in the context of his answer it doesn't just randomly fit.

I’m married, and that’s most definitely not the case with us. So... maybe his wife isn’t the whiny, pouty kind that uses sex to get her way.

ROFLOL!  I'm totally pulling your leg.  That's not the case with my husband and myself.  I have too much respect for him to ever treat him that way. I'm hopeful that Scott's wife isn't that way either. My point is that his wife's preferences will be taken into consideration if he chooses to move back home. I venture to guess that this has been discussed at length at one time or another during their relationship if Nebraska is indeed Scott's dream job.

Yes. But you obviously don't follow sportslines regularly if that's your basis for thinking they are wrong.... and I don't mean that as an insult by any means, good for you if stay away from it. However, anyone who follows lines/bets knows Vegas is pretty damn good... that's why they are still in business.

They don’t make money by being “right” necessarily, they make money just by getting people to bet....no bets are placed for free. It’s about public perception IMO.

I'm pretty sure he said "back then" because now he is a head coach. So now he has that experience that he didn't have "back then."

Ok, what question is Moos referencing when he uses that term? Back then has no context in answering the question.

Frost and Phil Knight have a very good friendship.  One of the first thing Frost did when taking the UCF job was to call Knight and request an upgrade in uniforms and get a variety of jerseys, pants, helmets (much like Oregon).  Frost wanted "cool uniforms" to use in recruiting.

Interesting, when I took my new job I also called Knight to ask for stuff...I am still waiting to hear back from him.

It would've seemed to be another reason for Frosty to come here, if we hadn't signed that Adidas deal already. 

(I AM NOT SAYING WE SHOULDN'T HAVE SIGNED WITH ADIDAS) Just saying that it would've possibly helped us land Frost if the Nike possibility was on the table. In the end, it probably doesn't matter much though.

I suppose technically we could buy out of it in a few years or immediately (not sure what that would cost though)

And let me guess...Florida is a Nike school, isn't it?
