Why Scott Frost Should Stay

I think you just proved my point.  My response to Hedley was five [5] paragraphs, two of those paragraphs are a sentence each.  To bloviate your point, [where you are trying to insult and make me look like an idiot], you are making out my three [3] paragraphs and two sentences into eight [8] paragraphs and each of those are stated as "long".  

It's the same thing that Trevor was doing.  Frost is not just "1-2 games in".  At a minimum, he is 8 games in and 3-5.  

I get it.  I see what you are doing.  It's more than obvious of your issues with me.  You and I both know what that deeper issue is ... but rather than truly converse and agree or disagree, you continue to use the forum to mock and insult. 

You are an interesting human for sure.  I can't throw stones at you as I get it.  But you win again JJ ... applause for you.

You are correct, I didn't need to use three long paragraphs.  I just found it interesting to have the opposite feeling as Hedley ... and thought I'd take the time to share with him how my mind was seeing it.  FYI, I did purpose to construct this as five [5] paragraphs so it could get ridiculed as well [trust me, I'm not a bad guy.  I wouldn't ruffle your feathers in person].

It’s not always all about you. Yes you had plenty to say about what Trev really meant, but you weren’t the only one blowing a few sentences into multiple paragraphs of explaining exactly what it all must mean. Sorry if you felt that was aimed directly at you but it wasn’t (not all of it anyway).

BTW, I went back and counted your contribution. Ironically it was exactly 8 paragraphs (even if I did pull the 8 number right out of my a$$). And then 5 more complaining directly to my off the cuff one sentence post. Maybe I should’ve claimed 20 paragraphs, to help you avoid confusion, because that’s the minimum that’s been wasted on what Trev really must’ve meant.

Everyone is scared to say it so I will. Trev has a verbal agreement with Nick Saban.

Hmmm. That's not making me feel good about it either. The person in the article felt it was definitive.

That is very very interesting that back then that he couldn't say "No, he will be back next year."

Things were probably being set up just in case.

Trev didn't want to produce a sound clip of him saying "Scott is coaching for his job". I also think many people assumed 6+ wins and a bowl was a foregone conclusion. The media and all our fans thought this would be a 7-5 type team. The people in the pre-season prediction thread that we're calling for a loss to Illinois or a losing season were told to not be so pessimistic. I think people are still holding out hope for 6 wins, but 3-4 wins would create an insane amount of pressure for Trev to make a move. We aren't living in the same world when Trev made that original quote. 

 
In the 122 years of Big Red football... any Husker fan can name the two best coaches in Nebraska history (by far)... Bob Devaney and Tom Osborne.

More than one thing went into making them both successful. But there is a personal quality they share that is an important one to their success:

Both of them were ‘Father Figures’. (And both became 'beloved' by the fans).

Major college football coaches for years now are more than just guys who coach football. They have become Father Figures for their program, their fan base, and their State. In many States, they are the highest paid and highest profile persons in the State. They come to represent the State on the National stage. Like Dr. Tom, they can transit into high profile positions away from football.

Nebraska has not had a ‘Father Figure’ coach since Dr. Tom.

Can Scott Frost become a Father Figure in the mold of the two Husker legend coaches? Is that in his personality? If not, can he find ways to have a winning program without that?

And if a new person is in the Husker future, do you go with the hot young coach who seems on his way up like Frost was? Or do you find that already established Father Figure to return the program to glory?

What personal qualities should the next Husker coach have?

 
Honestly at this point I don't care if he's retained or not. I don't think one more year will make a difference one way or the other. If he finishes with 3 or 4 wins, he should be let go in my opinion..... or if there's a coach Trev really wants who he thinks won't still be available next year (like Chadwell, whose offensive system I believe would be a great fit here.)
