I'm sorry to those who were jumping with glee over the prospect of a "Air Raid" type O but if you will indulge me just a bit here, below you find my observations as to why it would spell death for Nebraska.
First, and most important is this process of making a Old Dirty Scruffy Scared up tattered and torn Junk Yard Dog into one of those streamlined, sleek, pampered, slick not a hair out of place Show Dogs has been tried at Nebraska and BOTH times it crashed and burned badly. I won't re hash or open old wounds but those guys and their attempts is part of the reason we are where at now. That type O is great when you live smack dab in the middle of a glut of talent like the west coast or the Southeast And Deep South....but NEBRASKA AINT THAT !
WE are built on hard nosed blue collar values....your never going to find a more Blue Collar Conservative State than Nebraska and our school represents our people.
Tough, Honest, Fair, Friendly but able to flip the switch and rip your head off if needed.
We were founded and found success doing things no one else was doing Tough Run the Damned Ball in your face, hand in the dirt smash mouth physical football. Not for the faint or weak spined.
This is our niche and who we are, the people of the state are very proud of the fact that we beat the odds and do things the tough way because it's hard work but good work.
If say for instance Scott Frost lost his freaking mind and wanted to get the fan base frothing at the mouth howling at the moon mad and get fired before next season is even half way done.....this would be the way......hire a Air Raid O.C. and switch completely.....not only would this get him fired it would fix our team with players that would bail and the type guys who would come play (and we know what kind of egos they have) into a upside down cyclone and give any in coming HC at least 2-3 years to get it all sorted out again and now your at 4 more loosing seasons trying to be something we just simply are not.
You can make a purse out of a Pigs ear but no matter what you do it's still a PIGS EAR !
So if your screaming for a more modern pro based offense....slow your roll and see how the NFL is gradually going..more of a run based dual threat QB is the wave of the future in the NFL and offenses that cater to being more unpredictable for Defensive Coordinators to figure out.
These are just my opinions and things I see agree or disagree but you can't argue that had Tommie Frazier had come along today.....he would wind up a 1st or 2nd round Draft Pick.
