Too much baggage right now. Might insight protests on campus.Matt Lauer has become available too, if the Frost thing falls thru.
No, but I'm also not one who thinks that he's a bad coach. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised to see Bo win a championship at a P5 school someday with a fresh start, change of scenery and lessons learned from his time here.
What kills me is that every year we got our DB coach poached. We wouldnt pony up and keep them, but they bring in Riley and we open the wallet quite a bit for assistants. It was like they were wanting him to fail so they would have an excuse to fire him.Would of loved to have seen Bo with competent assistants around him. Those assistants (and his attitude obviously) is what cost him. But yeah, after Riley, those consistent 9-10 win seasons sound pretty good.
And that basically sums it up. See you all on Sunday!Still in the belief if there has been no chatter or leaks about any other candidates really, that this is probably as close to a done deal as there is with Frost.
The only other name that has been leaked is Fuente and that he is the back-up plan if something crazy were to happen to Frost to Nebraska.
Basically we are just in a waiting mode until Saturday or Sunday.
I think it did have a little to do with that but I also think it was just in our nature a bit and we are finally starting to come to the realization as a program if we want results we need to invest considerable funds into coaching. We've been playing moneyball with the coaching staff for too long and now we really have no excuses with the BIG 10 money coming in full this year.What kills me is that every year we got our DB coach poached.

I agree. Like one of the paper guys wrote, we need to pay coaches to match our expectations. Will be interesting to see who Frost brings in. I think it will be mainly his guys from UCF, but I will like to see who he fills the holes in the staff with. Does he go with loyal guys he knows and trusts, or does he hire some big name proven recruiters.I think it did have a little to do with that but I also think it was just in our nature a bit and we are finally starting to come to the realization as a program if we want results we need to invest considerable funds into coaching.

Yes, but when you look back it at, the way Eichorst treated him probably deserved the comments Bo made about him. Sorry for the thread derail. Cant wait to see Frost on our sidelines and DONU competing for Conference titles againThere's probably a lot of truth in that, but Pelini has nobody to blame but himself. Yeah he was winning 9 games a year, but if you want to keep your job after all those blowout losses you can't berate the fans/media/bosses and expect to do so. Let's not forget how embarrassing his antics were becoming to this program. Nebraska football was becoming a national punchline.
