Nebraska gives Scott Frost much deserved extension to only fire him.

Just dropping in to see if this thread still makes me as happy as it did on day one. It doesn't, it's so much better. The Nebraska spiral is like a fine wine that keeps getting better with age.

If Nebraska has a lot of starters leaving, it could open spots for transfers from other programs to get more playing time. That is really the only thing Nebraska can offer to transfers.

Playing time and the chance to be Frost's wingman at the bars on campus. He'll teach you a thing or two. Really, learning how to pick up college girls at the bar is something that will serve you well for decades to come, just look at where it's gotten him.

Adrian Martinez in the portal

KSU bound...girlfriend that my daughter went to school with is down there on a soccer scholly.

Also saw they are close on getting the current LSU wide receiver coach. Not sure why they would hire any position coach before they have an OC signed, but whatever...seems to be the Nebby way (chaos) at the current time.

Huskers hired Mickey Joseph from LSU as an offensive coach.

Chubba Purdy to Nebby? Pitt OC resigned position this morning, was recruiting Purdy to attend Pitt and did interview for the open Nebby OC position. Was at Purdy's house last night...

Well, that would be interesting...

That's a good hire and now explains why Martinez isn't there.

Fred is 14-46 at nub.

ouch

I watched about 15 minutes of the Nebraska-Michigan MBB game last night. Huskers amazingly inept on defense. 3 years ago I would have welcomed Fred back to Ames with open arms. Today I'd much rather have TJ.

Interesting. What would be the selling pitch on bringing him to Lincoln other than money? I know Nebraska has a more favorable schedule in the coming seasons but why would he take that job when it seems as though the HC is close to being fired?

Money and maybe he didn't get along with Narduzzi at Pitt? Only things I can think of. Pitt losing Pickett too so maybe he knows there are struggles to come there?

The negotiation process started with Whipple first thing Tuesday which later led to his resignation with the Panthers. At Pitt, Whipple made just under $500,000 in 2021. Expect Nebraska to come close to doubling the number he made with the Panthers.

At double the pay I assume he is willing to take the chance. With the easier schedule and the Huskers go to a bowl game Frost will stay and Whipple will be able to keep collecting those big checks

Plus he's 64

No to mention, if they get back to a bowl, this staff will be treated like gods (until the next sign of adversity)

Oh man, I can't wait to hear the "Nebraska is back" talk as they play in the Pinstripe Bowl!

You leave a good coach like Narduzzi to go to Frost, I question your intelligence.

I figure he’s getting a fat retirement check like Mike Riley did.

 

[VeloClone]

Maybe the AD had conversations with him about next year being an audition for the HC job.

Nebby is becoming nothing more than a "Good ol' boys" program with Fred being the outsider. What better way to bring back the Glory Days than to hire and retain everyone from it?
