it isn't about today or playing games close for moral victories. It's about 4 seasons with no winning seasons. Time to clean out the office and go be an offensive corodinator somewhere.

I whole-heartedly agree. He's had 4 years and In all honesty we are no better off than we were before. How many of these "1 score" games should have been multiple scores and the dogs were called off, weak opponents, etc.

I take no solace in a 3-7 record after 4 years of the Frost regime.

It is past time to end this experiment.
 
Meh. I think he needs and gets another year . I think he should get another year . Look at our schedule ( and try not to be all emotional) we played the hardest schedule in the country, and played it tough. Next season is not as bad, and next season should be the deciding season . Not many coaches have too face the kind of schedule we have had the last few years during a complete overhaul of the team, and to some degree the athletic department.

What does not get him fired next year in your mind when he comes back with the schedule they have? 6-6? 7-5? Will 5-7 with all close losses be ok?

That's my issue. I think we're so freaked out by the coaching carousel that we're willing to settle for less than mediocrity, all while trying to convince ourselves that we're making progress and next year, well that's going to be our year.

Next year we may win 6, simply because our schedule is easier. I really don't think that the easier schedule will help, with Frost and AM2 tied at the hip. If Frost returns (God help us) and AM2 is his QB, I won't be surprised for 0-4 wins. I am totally and deadly serious here
 
Bielema and his new staff not only handled us (with what most would agree is lesser talent), but knocked off ranked Penn State and Minnesota teams on the road.

Coaching matters, and can be impactful in far less time than this staff has been given.

I hope he gets another year. But he has to take a long look at what and how he's doing things. Correct the problems and win 7 at least

So..

We should keep a coach based on the ease of next year's schedule?
no we shouldn't can him , in a rebuild because of this year's schedule.
our boys are better, just not there yet. it doesn't hurt us to give a little more time . look at the pockets we will be competing against this off season. if Scott can't turn the ship in 5 then fine ( original contract was 7 and most people thought it would take 5 to 7 ) pull the trigger, just seems like a rinse repeat kinda mistake at this point. our boys are better, just not there yet

I disagree with your comment slightly. This is not mediocrity, it is failure. Mediocrity could have been tolerated this year as moving in the right direction.

Not buying the "easier schedule" rationale next year. On paper replacing OSU and MSU with Rutgers and Indiana makes for an easier sked, but does it matter? It's still a B1G schedule. I think next year sets up to be more disappointing than this. Nebraska doesn't lose games to the opposition. They lose games by a thousand self inflicted wounds every week. Whether its Illinois and Purdue or Oklahoma and OSU, Nebraska just keeps gashing themselves until they bleed out. This year Husker Nation is finding solace in playing Top 10 teams competitively. What comfort will there be next year when the Huskers punch themselves into submission against Indiana and Rutgers?

We keep canning coaches and it ain’t worked, maybe give a younger head man the time to cut his teeth, worked for Tom
That’s not a fair comparison, and I assume you know it. Every season with SF at the helm was significantly worse than any season under TO.
 
Watching Ky for the first time this evening. Empty the pocketbook and get Stoops, and have him bring their QB Levis with him. Hell maybe Wandale will come back if we assure him he won't run the ball 15 times per game.
 
It's analogy time: You're a sales manager and you hire a sales person who was successful at their last sales job. In fact, salesman of the year in their previous company. During the first year you overlook their slow sales performance due to getting their feet wet with a new product. During the next couple of years, their performance is sub par due to economic conditions and product problems beyond their control. You're impressed with their sales presentation skills but finally you begin to realize that no matter what, they just cannot close most of their sales. In fact less than 1/3 of their potential sales.

At what point do you cut them loose?
