** Scott Frost megathread all things SF***

[ColoradoHusk]

I don't know.  Nor do I know what role Frost has him play in recruiting.  Don't really care.  The guy can coach and players will want to be part of that offense

I'm with you.  I understand recruiting is important, but that seems to be the first thing fans look to with assistant coaches.  I would rather have the coaches be successful at developing players and know how to game plan and coach during games.

Well, it's the most confident I've felt about Frost N probably ever.  Peer pressure by reading the board.  The confidence level on this thread is amazing, more than it's ever been.  We're close.

Did you read this board when Diaco was hired?

I hope he always call plays. Osborne did. It keeps the offense stable regardless of who steals our OC's. Look at ohio state. Thats why their offense goes up and down depending on the year. Meyer doesnt call the plays anymore. So if you hire a crap guy like Tim Beck you suffer.

Meyer still has input. The problems while Tim Beck was at OSU shouldn't be laid all on him. You can't cycle talent through the system like they have and be consistent.

What was it like?

I don't know about the details about that award.  I am 99% sure that Frost calls plays for UCF right now.

I think if you scroll back to pages somewhere in the 60's or 70's of this page, it was discussed.  I believe it was Hedley that posted it.  I have no inner knowledge of the rules but I do remember that it was posted that a rule was a coordinator had to call plays in order to be up for the award.  Take it fwiw

If we could develop talent based on our recruiting ranking we would be representing the West.

I remember that item being discussed, but watching the past few UCF games, it looks like Frost calls the plays.

National media etc said it was the best hiring in the off-season in the conference I believe lol just like Riley was a really good hire

I never have understood why, if the HC is going to call plays, there still is an OC on the staff.  The OC is going to formulate the game plan through the week and go through the thought process of how to attack the defense.  That should be done by the guy who is actually calling the plays...(with input from others).

So, why have an OC if the HC is going to basically do the job?

Assistant TO THE Head Coach?

The local media people probably know all of this right?  But they were probably told to keep quiet

I haven't watched one game so I will take your word for it.  But again, it might be that he actually coordinates the game plan and Frost executes.  Don't care how they do it as long as Walters is part of it.

I was wrong about Riley announcement Friday. Will hold press conference on Saturday now. 

Well Hedly, that ties up the only bit of information I had that was a little different from what you've stated as I knew there were several folks on call for a Saturday announcement. If they aren't announcing Frost at the same time, it seems like that presser will be very short as I see no for Riley to be there.

Do you see any chance that they announce Frost on Saturday even if UCF beats USF? Otherwise, this state is going to go bat $hip crazy (fueled by the media) if we're coach-less for a week.

Or close to DEFCON 1!  :cowbell:

Okay I need the collective knowledge of this board to fill me in on details I am missing.  If need be I will start a new topic after the Frost hire.  Jay Foreman was just on Sharp and Benning.  Both Jay and Damon were dancing around the topic and discussing the "complicated" past of SF and LP.  Jay almost expects SF to address the topic and apologize once he is hired.  What's so complicated about it?  SF was dating LP's former girlfriend.  LP went crazy and broke into SF's apartment and drug her down the stairs.  The story about hiding in the closet is not substantiated in the police report or court transcript.  What would SF now a 42 year old man need to apologize now for given he wasn't really wrong and he was 20 years old at the time. What am I missing??

Bring back Beck?

Oh God I hope not.
