Frost Fired!

Red Five said:
Yup.  This is what happens when you keep around a coach with a .333 winning percentage for a 5th year and lower his buyout with a publicly acknowledged date.  Every game this year was going to be a referendum of Frost.  It was unhealthy for him, the players, the staff, the media, and the fans.

Everyone knew he wasn't cut out for the job after last year, but people's feelings about him winning the '97 ship cost us a year of program moving forward.  Hell, after the 2020 debacle most knew it was over, but just wouldn't admit it to themselves.

Reality is if he was not Frost, he would've been let go NLT than 2021.  I know some wanted him (had serious doubts) prior to 2021.  At least IIRC, Shiano and Cutcliff are safe as far as being the only 2 coaches to actually get a winning season after 4 losing seasons  (might have been 3).  

Bottom line, Frost was not going to turn the program around.  Giving some magical drop dead date to be fired or kept was a poor decision.  Every game Frost and Company were waiting for the shoe to drop.  Who would want to coach or play in that environment.  Talk about tension and the elephant in the room.  Maybe with the HC gone, the team and staff can get them playing better.  Be interested to watch TBH.

Why the f#&% not?

He tried his absolute best. There is not another single person on the planet that cares about the football program more than he does. He simply couldn’t get the job done. It wasn’t for lack of caring or trying.

I’ll stop there cuz anything else I have to say to this asinine comment will get me banned.

Scott got paid very well for all his coachspeak.  He also got the full support and the benefit to any doubt for far longer than any coach would or has ever gotten.

Getting fired and put out of his misery was compassion ... and he gets paid even more money.  

It's not an asinine comment at all.  Scott actually won today and got rewarded.

I wish him well and he will be just fine.  His coachspeak will live on in infamy.

100% agree.  My hope is that a weight is lifted of everyone's shoulders, and with MJ breathing new life both the players and staff can play loose and free.

If I squint I can see 5 more wins - Indiana, Rutgers, Illinois, Minnesota, and Iowa.

Very Christian and compassionate of you to balance things out simply because of enough money being involved. You should be proud.
