Mike'l Severe rant on Scott Frost

VectorVictor said:
Okay...so what if Frost was late a few times? 

What should bother folks more are the allegations that:

  • Duval's S&C put a kid in the hospital right away and hasn't been up to snuff his whole tenure. 
  • Frost continually blew off the Adidas NCAA rep (who is more important than ever in the era of NIL) and negatively impacted our relationship with Adidas
  • Frost blew off recruiting calls which cost us recruits
  • Frost didn't fix his program when kids being drafted were told the program was an impediment to their NFL hopes (see: numerous upper classmen transfers)
  • Frost had personality issues with multiple assistants and couldn't stand being in the same room with them (including Chinander)



These things, to me, are significantly more damning than tardiness.

Where is any of this? Wasn't Chinander in his wedding??

oh of course. Mike'l had 4 years to spill the beans but he chose not to.

Now, I don't necessarily blame him. plus, he's one of the few media members who have been critical of frost since the 2nd year. lol even in this thread, people think he has an axe to grind or something. he just doesn't care as much as others.

He has a bad combination of thin skin, a big ego, and enough lack of care of the program to insinuate unflattering things over the years. He's walked back some stuff already from his "rant" as hyperbole.

It's not surprising that people who have had run-ins with his ego and thin skin would not view him charitably.

Do you guys know how sources work?  Media guys are told stuff things all the time, but can't make it public because things are "off the record".  Shoot, I bet media would tough base with Trev the past year and ask him "is Scott still coming in late on a regular basis?'

Yeah, I don't get how many people on the web (primarily twitter) are lambasting the media for this.

You're a media member and you hear rumors of Scott banging co-eds at Gate 25. Better yet, let's say you know it's happening. What are you supposed to do with that info? Quote yourself? Quote people who won't go on the record? Commit career suicide? There's no tenable option there.

From "Doc Talk" with Dr. Rob Zatechka and Travis Justice.

Justice - Okay, let me give you an example. I was with what I think was a pretty good money man. Got invited to an NIL presentation. He (Frost) showed up an hour and half late. He showed up in a cut-off t-shirt with no sleeves, with a big old wad of chew in, spitting the whole time. Now you may say that's just who he is. If you are trying to impress people to give you money and that's the way you are with donors who you are trying to get to pay your players?

Coming back to this one. It really makes me laugh.

Nobody has any real idea of what his afternoon was like that day. Like, maybe he's in the middle of his own scheduled workout with plenty of time to get cleaned up & go to the thing...and then he's pulled into some high-priority issue that tied him up on campus for a couple hours.

This kind of stuff is such a huge stretch. And honestly for anybody that didn't know him well, they'd probably think it was cool that he shows up looking like a normal dude. I guess I wouldn't care, anyway.
