Scott Frost: They (OL) when I playing, looked like they were running the 40 yard dash coming off the line and I wanted to see that for a long time.
Me: But you're the head coach and you put up with substandard OL coaching for 4 years and only made changes in your offensive staff because (I'm 97% sure) you were forced to, to save your job.
Like, I still want Frost to succeed, and I am still rooting for him, but that statement was dumb.

I want to believe, in the worst way, that things are going to be different and that the Huskers are on their way up. Then I hear Frost say something incredibly stupid (see above) and I fear that not much is going to change.
Time will tell but I just find my optimism lessening.
"...in that way."
Seriously, I listened to his presser linked above and I bet I heard, "in that way" 15x.
And now Frost has come full circle and is now saying, "We're moving around well."
The more things change, the more they stay the same.
If you're telling me that he's Frank reincarnated, I'm not sure what I'm going to do. :arghhhh:"...in that way."

Well, maybe we would move towards mediocrity...which would be great compared to where we've been since Frank was let go.
I'm more in line with maybe one, but continuity sill has value. It won't make up for really bad coaches, but it can overcome a mediocre coach or two imo.
I wonder if that has anything to do Chris's information that coaches will have more say in the S&C needs of their specific charges.
If Frost has evolved/improved - so be it - be glad to see a team wins games under than scenario.
Most of the negativity in this thread is based on the fact that evolution/improvement has not happened in prior seasons - at least in terms of Ws. I am still concerned about game management given it costs us so many wins over the last 4 seasons. What has Frost done to ensure he is making decisions in the 4th quarter to give his team the best chance to win. Example - Michigan game last season. At one point in the 4th quarter we had over a 90% chance of winning the game per the analytics. Frost proceeded to make bad decision after bad decision after that that let Michigan steal the game. What has changed to fix that? Maybe Whipple calling plays is enough. We shall see.
