BTW, how many threads have been merged into this one???!?!? :wacko:
Great post - my thinking exactly. When Messingham was named OC, Rhoads jokingly (?) said at the presser that now he has an OC that will "keep me informed." I'd like to think that our HC has enough confidence and knowledge to have input on offensive philosophy, offensive game plans, etc. CPR should have his hands around the throat of the entire program. Way too much delegation, IMO.
I guess I would like to know how other DC's-turned-HC's have/are doing it. Saban? Stoops? Pelini? Dantonio? Bielema? Charlie Strong? Just would like to know their input and influence with their team's offense.I disagree with that completely. He should hire someone capable and keep out of the offense. We can't know for sure but maybe he was making Herman do things he didn't want to do. Hell, maybe he's doing that with Mess.

People were angry all over this board when CPR refused to say he was going to be at ISU for life last year. I'll look up the threads if I have to and make fools of a bunch of you. CPR would go on his radio show and talk about how difficult it was to keep a CFB job because it's so difficult to keep the fan base on your side. He was the one who was right!
It's so difficult to win in college football...there is a ton of money there and you have the best of the best competing against each other.
Nebraska fans wouldn't like this at all.And the fact fans are turning on him scares the crap out of me. It's unlikely, but it wouldn't completely surprise me if Nebraska gives him a call once Pelini's fired at the end of this year.

A knowledgeable Nebraska fan told me his name was being thrown around on message boards. That's where I got it from. I don't think it's likely, but if Scott Frost would say no I wouldn't be completely stunned.
