The rumor mill around the Nebraska football coaching job is spinning out of control

I'm talking some of the funnest and/or funniest stuff you can imagine

LEACH

LET'S DO IT

I just want people to start dressing like pirates.

I'd have no issue with Leach, he plays to ****ing win.

I'm still all aboard the Frost hype train

My god. Anyone who doesn't want Frost after reading that post is completely dead inside.

Anybody here been listening to Sipple talk about Perlman and the firing of Solich and Pelini?

Stay away from Sipple and stay away from Huskerboard. Good god man

Lol I don't go on husker board, was listening to talk radio and he was on.

I was one of the top posters on Huskerboard for a few years until some **** went down. As a result of that **** + other nonsense, almost all of the good posters there have been run off and they're left with like, 6th grade teachers who spend all of their time posting porn online, and amateur ghost hunters, and people who hint at being completely fine with domestic violence, and the like. It's quite the selection bias

Yah like I post on Reddit and listen to sports radio during football and basketball season.

I just was surprised at the counter narrative that Bo was run out of town and not given the resources, really makes the hiring of Riley just completely inexcusable.

Bo ran himself out of town. Oh Sipple.

Scott Frost's new role: scout-team quarterback

Glad we won, but that was ****ing ugly.

I'm getting real tired of the offensive line play. Whiffing on blocks, holding calls, false starts. Seems like after every running play, all the linemen are standing there looking at the running back on the ground. And luckily Lee was ruled down on the sack where he lost the ball. Farniok kind of half-assed an attempt to pick up the ball instead of diving on it.

Yeah we just have to move on from this coaching stag staff. Next season is going to be rough, but Id rather be headed in the right direction.

I went to the game Friday. My cousins and I, along with some of my cousin's friends, have kind of made it a tradition. We didn't pregame as much as in the past, but I did get me some Elk Creek Water and a very tasty jalapeno ale.

I was starting to think we had a chance in the first half when we went up 14-7 and forced them to punt. We even had a good laugh when the Iowa kick returner went out of bounds at the one. Breaks were going our way.

But I didn't know that running into the kicker was the signal to roll over and quit. From that point on it was all Iowa. After the three quick scores to open the 3rd quarter, our group wanted to leave. I said let's finish the quarter and see where we're at. Then Lee threw a pick, Iowa scored in like 2 plays, and we said **** it, time to go.

We finished the game at a hotel bar and I pulled up the UCF game on my phone. After the Husker game ended, everyone was asking to see the UCF finish so the bar changed the TVs over. At least that game was entertaining, and at least that got our minds off the game we just left. We all met back up for dinner at The Oven in the Haymarket. Excellent Indian food if you're interested.

This was without a doubt the worst Nebraska team in my lifetime (I'm 52). I was hopeful when we hired Riley. He got a pass his first year and we did have a lot of last second losses, and last year seemed to show some improvement with a better record, but this year should have never happened and it was time for him to go. I think coaches should get 4 years minimum to get through their first recruiting class. I think Kansas pulled the trigger way too fast on Turner Gill after two years. But in Riley's third year, we saw a team moving in the wrong direction. They seemed to give up and no one, including the staff, seemed too care. If this had been a first time head coach, maybe another year would be warranted, but this was an experienced coach. It was obvious that Riley was a bad hire and had to go.

Everything is pointing to Frost being our next head coach. My cousin's friend claims to have inside info about his decision (friend of a friend, blah, blah, blah). I am skeptical until the official word comes down, but the details of his source sound pretty legit. This is the most excited I've been about a new coach since Osborne retired. For once we're getting our first choice and not settling for whomever is left after all the other schools have signed new coaches. He's going to get a long leash as he is still inexperienced, but as long as there is progress he's going to get the time needed to build the program.

Him turning down even interviewing with Florida makes it sound like it's a done deal.

Gonna be a big change but his teams play lights out.

Coaches should really get 5 years or maybe 6. Recruiting a class basically starts in a HS junior year, so it's mostly too late for Frost to bring in his guys this year, unless he can carry over some folks from UCF relationships. That's just the reality of the college football landscape these days. To be successful, you need to start winning with a different coach's recruits, since the natives start to get restless on year 3.

That brings me to my second point. Based on the current state of the program under Riley and Frost's relationship with Nebraska, he should get a longer leash, but I wouldn't count on it. Fans have entirely unrealistic expectations about how soon to expect a turnaround despite most of the 2018/2019 success already being locked in by recruiting efforts 1-2 years ago.

Harbaugh should have a similarly long leash, but UM fans will be pretty vocal next year if he doesn't get the Wolverines back to 10 wins. They are cranky this year with 8-4 in what everyone knew would be a rebuilding year.

People aren't expecting CCGs in year 3, they are expecting to not give up 50+ points to Iowa and Minnesota. I think the expectations are realistic, but Frost will get alot of time.

He will get push back from the RTDB crowd but that'll be drowned out. I'm guessing they give Frost a 7 year contract to start.

Florida is a dumpster fire. He is close enough here to know what the recruiting issues are in Gainesville - as did C. Kelly. He is much better off in Neb - if he leaves UCF.

WE GOT OUR GUY!!!!

It has seemed to be a done deal for a while, but it's a relief to get an official announcement.

The tweets I've seen from current player all show excitement for Frost coming to Lincoln. Combined with all the love fro his current team, this could help keep commits on board and maybe bring back some decommits. I heard he's going to coach the bowl game, but he'll still have time for recruiting and to get his staff in place.

The future of Nebraska football is looking up.

Yah like if we can piece together a non ****ty recruiting class and make a bowl game next year I think we can call that very successful.

Great hire

These ****ers have been busy

Yah, I think Matt Davison has led the charge on all this to earn that associate AD.

Feels good to know we are in the right direction. First year is gonna be rough but there's so much talent on offense that as long as we make a bowl game ill be happy.

If he beats Wisconsin and Iowa there might be a ****ing riot.

How Nebraska brought Scott Frost home
