I've seen enough.

I’m so indifferent on this I’m surprised at myself, maybe it’s the apathy, maybe it’s the let down from all the hype that was supposed to be with Frost.

Keep him, I can live with that decision. Most certainly would have he makes some serious changes on the staff, or at the very least shows improvement with the roster.

Fire him, completely understandable and I’d be okay with that decision, although I’d sure hope Alberts had a big hire ready to go.

I do think he gets one more year. Alberts probably doesn’t want to come in and immediately fire the native son and long term PR move is to show you gave him essentially two years and there was no progress. Also Nebraska is always going to be Nebraska. The fans loyalty has completely spoiled the athletic department. We will be there for them no matter what, so what’s one more year to see if things somehow work out?
This is where I am at

 
Then before we know it, it's late summer and everyone having a tizzy tonight will be doing Stone Cold Beer Baths with Cherry Kool-aid yelling GO BIG RED!  And it will be Frost as the coach, and we'll probably have a low pre season ranking to boot.  I'm putting my chips on next year as the make or break.  Nobody has to follow suit, but it's going to play out like I've just described, like it or not.
You should try it

He does deserve a 5th, legend or not.  Everyone wishing this was his swan song must have a slam dunk hire in their back pocket.  Or, we just want to keep hitting reset forever until we hire a magician that can turn it around in 1 year.

Half the people being a drama queen today will be back to normal by Wednesday.  The other half, well they can continue spewing nonsense that we have to fire Frost immediately to somehow feel better about ourselves, Idk.


None if this explains what he's done to earn a 5th year.

 
I just don't think this style of offense will work in the B1G. Execution aside.... and it's terrible.... I kept getting the feeling during the game this week that we were moving the ball too quickly.  When you are dealing with an opponent who keeps putting 7 and 8 minute drives together, it just doesn't seem smart to go up tempo. We'd finally force a FG or a punt and we'd only run 4-5 plays on the next drive - even the successful drives were the result of one or two chunk plays that moved us into the red zone quickly.

Perhaps the coaches would say "well we are most comfortable being up tempo" - but I think to stick to a philosophy stubbornly you need to be able to impose your will onto the game, and we so rarely do that.

This style does work, finally, in the Big Ten.  We just don't have a line that can play it for 4 quarters.  Backs get gobbled up at the line and defenders break through at will.  Fix that, it works fine.
