Speaking of when Ohio State wasn't threatened by us......

Remember Mike Riley's tenure?

Going on 4 years since he was here, but I'm old enough to remember it. 

Remember when you told us to be patient? That Scott Frost would be a sub .500 coach for at least three seasons, but only because he was playing multi-dimensional chess that mortal fans couldn't understand?

Whats more. My original thread had nothing to.do.with the new AD but how the teams win/ loss record over the next two years might affect the tenure. That there is a new AD is not even mentioned anywhere in the post for consideration. It really doesn't belong in this thread.

Had an interesting thought over lunch today. I do not believe frost is on the hotseat, this year, but without improvement this year, he may be. I was thinking about his long term prospects of remaining head coach here. And an interesting scenario came to mind. 

What if Frost goes 9-3 this season, but reverts to a season between 5-7 wins next year. I think his sear would be even hotter following a let down year than it would be if he had 2 consecutive 7-6 seasons. Say both 2 year scenariis had the exact same win/loss record 14-12. I could totally see a breakthrough/letdown combination leading to a coaching change before back to back 7 win seasons. 

Thoughts???

@Born N Bled Red Your thread was about potentially firing a head coach. Guess whose job it is to fire head coaches? These things are inseparable, whether you mentioned it in your post or not.

Another mod merged the topic; not sure whom. It is better to use the report function than tagging individual mods in situations like this.

Either way, I would tend to agree with @Toe's assessment and the mod who merged it. It would be difficult to discuss Frost's performance in relation to job security without involving conversations about the new athletic director i.e. his boss. A lot of potential for conversational crossover, so I see why it was merged.

Suspicious thoughts:  Former AD Moos was urged to release Scott Frost at the end of this coming season if he did not produce "a significantly competitive effort in the conference."  There was arguing and attempts at negotiating.  The bigger boosters were/are divided.  Moos was "retired" in favor of a new AD who would set that ultimatum Moos wanted no part of.
