** Scott Frost megathread all things SF***

[Redux]

The ONLY thing that bothers me is his lack of experience in the B10.  But I guess if that were a major criteria, Bielema would be a legit canidate.  Yuck

Where it says "57 recently browsing" at the bottom of the page, how many of you are like me and have a tab open with this thread, but generally are doing something else, coming back now and then to refresh?

I think the best sign that we might have Frost locked up is that we haven't heard any other names gain traction in the rumor mill. You'd think at least another name or two would have come through.

I can’t think of a positive way to frame Scott passing on us. The only thing I could see is that he feels he’d fit better in the Big 12/Pac 12.

I keep thinking about those anonymous coach quotes in Athlon this summer. One coach mentioned how Diaco’s mindgames only work when he has the talent. Another coach mentioned how far our job has fallen. I shrugged both those comments off at the time - Frost passing on us would really give me doubts going forward. Especially if we end up with a Mike Leach or Craig Bohl type of hire.

Desperate as I am, I'll buy that!  It does actually make good sense.

I'd have more doubts if Moos wasn't our AD. I really trust the guy to hire a quality coach. The right coach.

I just hope we don't get Eichorsted.

Not only this, but our local media has been very very quiet about mentioning any name other than Scott Frost. OWH writes an article daily about Frost, gotta think they have a hunch who the new coach is.

Gonna get Moos'd.

It is either that or no one Moos has reached out to is interested.

You said ‘this summer’. (this past summer) We had come off of a decent second year under Riley and were hopeful that with the addition of Diaco that we would have a great season this year. We weren’t even thinking of hiring Scott at the time so I’m curious as to why you are basing your thoughts that Scott will pass on us based on your impressions from last summer?

Also possible, yes. Unlikely though, in my opinion.

Tennessee Rivals site continues to report that they are hearing Frost to NU.

They have Mullen, Gruden (who even they say isn't going there), Campbell and Schiano as the likely candidates for their job.

I’m not saying Scott will pass on us. But people were discussing how Frost passing on us would say more about him than the state of the program.

Athlon had an article over the summer where anonymous coaches said something about each program. Someone said that the Nebraska job isn’t a good job anymore. I’m saying I didn’t think twice about it in the summer, but if Frost passes on us, I’m worried that comment might be more true than I’d like to admit. We will see, I still feel he’s ours.
