Hey everybody.....the thing that tends to get lost here is the "What If" scenario.....Ok let's just say for discussion sake Frost takes the gig, comes home to much ballyhoo and we promptly go on a bender and Frost lays a huge Ostrich size egg that continues for 2-3 years and the program continues to decline into obscurity......what will happen then.....oh my good giddy aunt Jane the fan base (which has an elephants amazing memory) starts grumbling and teeth gnashing and hair pulling and Frost's supporters start throwing out ......."Well remember what Osborne went through and we gave him all the time he needed to get the job done!" And we wind up with 6 years invested in another failure....?.......Not to mention what it would do to Frost's meteoric rise as a head Coach.....see what I am saying ?...... Frost has a lot to figure out for himself and his growing family.
I know if he were to come home and lay an egg every thing the poor guy has done in his past will get drug up and aired publicly.....is he willing to take that walk ...?....Is he willing to subject his wife and child ( more than likely more by then God willing) to that kind of verbal and mental abuse he would get should he fail here.....It's just he would be under tremendous strain here to succeed and is he willing to take that risk with his career and his family at stake ?.....
Sure we would all turn into Demons if in fact he turned us down for a while but that would eventually die down and go away.....maybe clearing a path for him to come home and Coach in Lincoln sometime down the road after his kids are grown and in college somewhere..
These are things that he has got to be going over in his mind no matter how focused he says he is on his current job.....when he is home laying in bed at night and it's quiet in between trading off who is going to go feed the baby or change it's diapers with his Wife,.....go through his head these thoughts are, or have already..... gone through his mind.
There is a whole lot for him to decide and he was never one to make a rash decision since he chose to spurn Coach Osborne and go play for Coach Walsh when he was at Stanford.....I heard him say once that his decision to go to Stanford was based solely on being able to learn from Coach Walsh....but that opportunity quickly dried up and he decided to come back home if Coach Osborne would have him......he would have played any position just to come home and play, knowing all the time that he was in for it when he got here but it still didn't stop him.
Bottom line here is Scott Frost is a Tough S. O. B. And he earned the right to be the starting QB at NEBRASKA despite all my Brother Blackshirts best efforts......he would not quit or give in.....he just kept coming back for more till basically everybody got tired of trying to get him to quit.....and he won a lot of friends through that......in the end he was a competitor and a grinder.....you just knew beyond a shadow of a doubt if he was in there.....you were going to get every ounce of play out of him.....we wasn't going to complain or take a play off either.....and that is what made him into a winner that had no reverse or back-up in him......so my question is now......I already know what Scott Frost we would get for a coach......but are you all ready for it ?.........................
Or will you turn on him like a pack of rabid Coyote's ....?
Think it over cause I know he is or already has......
