Scott Frost was the next big thing in coaching and was pegged to save Nebraska football, but sadly that did not work out and he was fired. Today we talk about the rise & fall of Scott Frost, enjoy!
Coaches have the sickest golden parachutes 🪂. Sickafants workshop the ground even bad coaches walk on. Call em sham elections, at least there is a process at some point
Here’s Frost issue Nebraska and UCF are two different recruiting foot prints. It’s why Iowa is a slow paced ground and pound team, KSU is similar except they are a pistol RPO ground and pound, etc. Frost tried to fit a square peg into a round hole. He tried to take a style that works with Florida athletes and use their speed in his spread offense. Nebraska doesn’t have access to enough talented speed. They have access to big mauler O lineman/D-line. Also no one wants to go to Lincoln over other options and so it’s hard to recruit the speed needed from other recruiting foot prints
WOW..no line outs like the FBI Gestapo did for their re-acted from the Marxist BIDEN DOJ/FBI.- Time time to close all IDCs/ electrical energy sources...then we can start again with TRUTH instead of this Corporate Nazi entities that seek to destroy America.
We don’t, we still love him as a person. He’s just not the guy to turn our program around, just the reality. Most of us hold no ill will towards him and wish him nothing but the best
I dont know. There have been plenty of rumblings that Scott Frost is an abrasive prick and had a way of pissing off everyone who knew him. Doesnt suprise me. Between his comments during COVID and the infamous "throw up" conference. I think a lot of people inside the program were happy to seehim go.
My family are huge Nebraska fans we are from the state and no one hates home you are right they love what he did as a player but are all extremely disappointed with his performance as the head coach
WOW..no line outs like the FBI Gestapo did for their re-acted from the Marxist BIDEN DOJ/FBI.- Time time to close all IDCs/ electrical energy sources...then we can start again with TRUTH instead of this Corporate Nazi entities that seek to destroy America.
But you also have to come to terms with nebraska over estimated by a hilariously level how good they thought they were and how good the b12 was when they left. I mean to everyone outside of nebraska it was very very obvious they were at best mediocre and have an occasional decent season if they were lucky in a far superior conference. Nebraska will not be much more then a 7 win 8 win at best team from here on. Take what ya can get at this point. Kids nowadays born after 2001 nebraska is completely irrelevant and has nothing what so ever to offer any one in terms of recruiting. The dumpster fire they have become is all they know and have seen from nebraska
@@jbills7292 Pelini coached Nebraska to three 9 win seasons when they joined the Big 10 so Nebraska didn’t fall off a cliff as soon as they jumped conferences or something. You can claim that Nebraska has nothing to offer from a recruiting standpoint but somehow they’ve still had consistently top 25 recruiting classes and have been at or near the top of their division in recruiting rankings. It may not be realistic for them to compete for national championships year in and year out but I don’t think getting to the level of Iowa or Wisconsin and winning the west consistently and having 9+ win seasons is out of the question. It’s not like Iowa has access to a much better recruiting base yet they find ways to win. The problem at Nebraska isn’t talent, it’s bad coaching.
I loved Suh when he was at Nebraska, but he became such a dirty player in the NFL. Even Coach Osborne spoke with him about his conduct. He has no coaching experience, and unfortunately, his reputation doesn't compensate for lack of experience.
No way Frost is hated in Nebraska. Also his great season was not 1995, it was 1997. Tommy Frazier was the starter on the 1995 National Title team. And the pass versus Missouri did not bounce off a Missouri player’s leg. It bounced off of the Nebraska receiver’s (#3) leg.
He left Nebraska for Northern California. Came crawling back. He made a fool of himself in the nfl. Frost was blessed to have the level of success he had.
@@cacornhusker2940 interesting point. Obviously I have lived my life in Michigan. The media instruct everyone to believe that brother Tom was a scumbag. Tom is a great man from the heart land of America. Frosty ☃️ thought he was to good for Nebraska til they gave him millions. Screw frosty
Scott Frost wisely left Nebraska for a superior education at Stanford. Tom Osborne recruited him to come back to Lincoln. Scott frost is a freak athlete that stepped into the QB position....did you see Scott throw the ball? Dude was a suck athlete bringing in a national championship for TO versus Peyton Manning.
Aside from a storied tradition, there is NOTHING in the northern Plains states that attracts today's young players. It's all about media market, which fuels NIL. When Saban retires, Bama will come back to earth. UGA, UF and LSU will continue to be perennials, because of their financing and media market sizes.
Nebraska high schools don't produce much talent, and Lincoln, NE is a hard sell for out of state recruits. Nebraska is boring, and the winters are hellish. I don't know how they managed to build those teams back in the 90s. Maybe it was the Texas recruiting pipeline they lost when they moved to the B1G.
I doubt he will go to Alabama. They’re pretty set right now as is on both sides of the ball. His only hope would be if Bill O’Brien leaves after this season and he can come as an offensive coordinator.
& the NU alumni have 0 allegiance or fidelity.8 coaches since Osborne who took 21 years to get NCAA🏆;8 years for Devaney. Solich was there the whole time Osbourne was there.They ran 2 coaches(Solich & Frost) that knew the old program but didn't recieve same alumni treatment as the old coaches,w/time to make eventual unbeatable squad.NU gets what it deserves for acting like every other school🏈program, expecting relative immediate results & gratification
Under Frost, it seemed like Nebraska just couldn't make the big play when it was needed. There were so many games in which one play could have made all the difference.
Nebraska never should have fired Pelini. Martinez sucked from the first snap. Frost was more worried about “culture” and guys “buying in” than actually winning football games. Frost ran off so many good players especially QB’s. Good riddance.
Pelini had some good teams in Nebraska. He kind of reminded of Mark Richt who won around 10 games year in Georgia but just couldn't get them over the hump.
oh puhleeze ..... "land on his feet " ????? he was gifted MILLIONS of dollars from Trev Alberts. ---- wisen up !!! Frost was a complete scam and doesn't deserve any of your sympathy. Don't be so naive !!
Pay him for the number of O-linemen he sent to the NFL and he’ll be rich. Throw in tight ends and he’ll be insanely rich. One season Fererntz had 2 tights ends drafted in the 1st round.

@@2DanTube It wasn't just recruiting. Riley had pretty much destroyed that team. I have a feeling that had Frost been hired in 2015 rather than Riley, things would have been a lot different. At least Frost would have had more to work with, coming out the gate.
It really is a shame ,, I reallly felt that scott frost would be able to turn things around for the huskers!! But what is odd that any team including Nebraska would have 9 games in the same season that would come down to the final play or the team who scored last and Nebraska was not ever one of those teams and even more amazing is the huskers for some very strange reasons could not win just one of those games 9 chances
Two things: 1.Wood river is 2 hours away from Lincoln. 2.Very few people in Nebraska are upset that he got fired, but very few hate him. We're just disappointed that it didn't work out. Go Big Red
@@csnide6702 The result succes is not important so much for Nebraska board,they are getting enourmous amount of money for being in Big 10,that is the most important thing to them.They will never go back to Big 12.Money talks.
I'm far from an expert on college football, but Frost the player will always be legendary I would think. I occasionally watched games with my dad back in the 90s, but I still remember that crazy play against Missouri. Unforgettable stuff. And perhaps his coaching skills are better suited for smaller programs that aren't a pressure cooker of expectations.
Unfortunately, Frost’s coaching stint at Nebraska was among the most disappointing since Willie Taggart at FSU. I have been just as surprised as many others that the Nebraska job didn’t work out for him. Hopefully he can rebound elsewhere and find another quality opportunity. I don’t think he’s a bad coach per se, he just needs more experience because Nebraska definitely has the resources to be a successful program.
I actually feel bad for him because he wasn't ready for this. I think any power of five job would have been an adjustment for him but Nebraska is one of , if not the biggest rebuild situation in College Football right now. If he had stayed at UCF his legacy would be very different.
These days, it is VERY hard to to recruit and build at a place like Nebraska... Not alot of kids wanna go there... And you're right, he should have stayed here in Orlando and he would have been great... UCF is literally in the middle of a rich pool of talent and anyone would have wanted to play for him here.
@@RobotRebelCinema they recruit at the same levels as Iowa and Wisconsin. Those teams win most years. (Granted not this year) Nebraska is fine on talent
Scott Frost is not hated in Nebraska. Bill McCartney's hated. Frost led us to a national championship as a player and never has to buy drinks or dinner anywhere in Nebraska.
Steve Pederson is hated. Bill Callahan is hated. Shawn Eichorst is hated. Bo Pelini... Well, guess it depends on who you talk to. Personally, I didn't think he was a bad coach at all. Even with all the rough edges. Mike Riley is hated. Hell, Riley was worse than Callahan. He was the one who destroyed the team that Frost ended up inheriting. Scott Frost will never be hated by genuine fans of Nebraska Football. His time as a National Championship Quarterback alone, guarantees his status as a Nebraska legend. I was hoping to see him retained at least to the end of the season. He could still have salvaged something. Not so sure that'll happen with Mickey Joseph. Still, I hope he does real well. Even if it didn't work out for Coach Frost at UNL, I'm pretty confident that he'll land somewhere where he will see as much success as he had at UCF. He's a good coach. All that said, they should never have fired Solich.
Tom osborne set a legacy that's impossible to live or catch up too! That 1996 fiesta bowl title game where the cornhuskers head whupped the florida gators 60+ to 20+ points is still the stuff of legends!! Good luck to the next permanent head coach.
I moved to western Iowa in the early 2000’s and had to listen to Nebraska fans talk constantly about how amazing their football team is and make fun of big ten football. I am so happy now to see them fail over and over again. It makes even more sweeter that they came to the big ten and are losing so much.
I'm from Nebraska and I can tell you right now no legit High School Prospect is going to want to come here. None of them are old enough to even remember when we were any good there's no connection to Nebraska from them. And who the hell wants to spend Winters in Lincoln Nebraska? I literally have not been able to watch a football game in 2 years in the first two games of the season is exactly why. Every single time they're in a position to win a game they find a way to s*** the bed and I can't do it anymore
I feel bad for him. He seemed like the right man to restore Nebraska. Nebraska also is reaping what they sow. Fired Solich and Pelini? Both winning coaches? You will never be like the Huskers of the 80s and 90s ever again. No one hates him, it is sad to see a nice guy fall from such high expectations.
this is such a bitter and sad reality to accept as a fan of one of the most and perhaps THE most legendary football program in cfb history. im an LSU fan and i can relate to a big degree after that screw job we got handed because of the media and polls riding bama d1ck. we beat them in tuscaloosa. they didn't deserve to play us again. then the infinite frustration and sadness of losing to them 8 years in a row to our former coach whom lifted us to the peak of our programs history. 2019 was so fucking elating though and im satisified because we are in the same breath as 95 nebraska as perhaps the best team of all time im more than okay with that. thats something bama can never take from us and they will never come close because all evidence shows that program is in decline and saban is in decline in the twilight of his career. im also actually so happy to see that Georgia program on top of the NCAA because they always competed with us hard in our best seasons and just couldn't quite make that push to greatness. we look forward to an exciting, less toxic rivalry with a school i think all LSU fans respect. i want to see Nebraska return to prominence. all the best, big red.
The players and assistant coaches said terrible things about Scott Frost in the newspapers and during interviews. It showed those players and coaches have no class. Frost lost most of these games by less than a touchdown. Literally one different play in each game could have produced a different result. Those players and assistant coaches should not be saying such bad things publicly. I saw what happened without Scott Frost. Nebraska got completely blown out by Oklahoma. It is now painfully clear the Athletic Director of Nebraska should have just waited a few more weeks to save the program $7 Million regarding the buyout of Frost's contract. Nebraska won't be keeping this current interim coach. Someone from the outside will be brought in.
At UCF Frost has a pool of talent to recruit from. In this day and age what elite football player would want to go to Lincoln when the SEC is dominating college football. Bottom line he did not have the players to be successful at Nebraska.
Scott frost will definitely find success a Job AAC, MAC, or C-USA school. He was able to find success at UCF. I wouldn't wouldn't be surprised if he coached at GA Tech next season.

It’s really sad, as a UNC fan I wish he had done well. 5-22 in 10 point games is just heart breaking. I wish he would have looked in the mirror and realized he is not in Florida anymore and needs to adapt to the talent available to him. More of a spread power run game or just traditional I and run it down peoples throats and have 1,000 yard backs every year with those massive Olineman y’all get and have low turnovers and then play great defense. Nebraska should be able to field a really good front 7 and offensive line.
I do hate him he is trash 🗑 so don't speak for everyone. He is the guy that drove the program into the ground and smiled while doing it. He is also the guy that cheats on his wife with students. The guy that is a coward in a closet while a girl he cheat with is being assaulted by her boyfriend because of him. Sorry your hero is a loser zero.
Coaching isn't what most people think it is. Coaching is business management. This means hiring quality coaches who can recruit and who can make each component work. Take, for example that mess Frost called an offense, this year. Who was running that? IIt should be working, and it's not. Now, as an Ohio State fan, I was looking at a great head coach who was running up the record book on offense, and squeaking out wins, in spite of a horrible defense. So, what does he do? He changes all but one coach on the D side of the ball. In the meantime, he puts Hartline to work recruiting positions he doesn't even coach because Hartline is a fantastic recruiter. These kinds of head-coaching skills don't make headlines, but management is the name of the game, and it is only getting more difficult in the day and age of NIL. What does all that say about Frost? Well, he might be a great coach, but he's not a great manager.
As a Colorado fan, it was fun seeing him lose to two different head coaches. Especially when they blew the 17 point lead and lost in OT at Folsom. Always is fun beating Nebraska 😎
Lifelong OU fan here. I genuinely feel bad for Nebraska's fan base. They are some of the best in the sport and don't deserve this. With that said. they should have stayed in the Big XII.
This was a fairly quickly-made video considering the time. I applaud you. With that being said, I haven't been this pumped since Frost CAME to Nebraska. Five years down the road, I at least expected a bowl game from him, and it never happened. We could lose every game for the rest of the season, but firing Frost is the start of something better. Notice I didn't say "big"; just better than where we are now. Many players that played under Frost had their potential wasted by him, such as Adrian Martinez, who looks at home at Kansas State (also praying for the Mizzou Tigers to bounce back as they are historic rivals of Nebraska but now I'm okay with them). I consider the head coach to be the mind and soul of a football team, while the players are the body. Why this needs to be known is because the mind and soul is the source of connection to how the body reacts. Frost just looked so dead all at the end of last year and so far this year, and I believe that may have passed over to the players, and ultimately the fanbase. I will not miss Frost as head coach of Nebraska.
There's no reason for Nebraska to be bad. They've got good recruiting, great school and community support, one of the better NIL infrastructures, and the mystique of being one of college football's traditional blue bloods. Frost was probably out of his depth, and would have probably been served better by head coaching at a power 5 school with less expectation and scrutiny.
I think one major problem is Nebraska isn’t exactly a great state for producing talent. And most 4 and 5 stars are from the southeast, California and Ohio
Unfortunately wrong place, wrong time, wrong strategy, wrong personnel for Scott Frost. I never thought in a million years his teams would struggle so much. I'm sure there are things behind the scenes will never know of but I'm glad we gave it a try with him. He had the pedigree. It just didn't work with Nebraska. Sometimes luck just doesn't go your way either. Very disappointing but I still respect the guy. Every season brings new hope. Here's hoping 2023 goes better. GBR.
There's nothing like being fired when you're rich. He's had to of made millions from coaching different teams and he will be coaching again if it's only as a position coach which pays well. If only we were all so fortunate
As a Texas fan myself I will say to turn it around like Texas looks like they have done they need to do 2 things. 1. Use that NIL money wisely. 2. Spend the money on a good coach not a flashy coach.
The elephant in the room, when discussing NIL is media market size. UT has it; NU never will. Destinations, as much as developmental and playing opportunities are what lands recruits now. For NU to succeed, they might want to try instituting a culture similar to that of the service academies. Sell Lincoln as a place free of distractions; as a place that enables unyielding focus, and you might get a few studs buying in. Trouble is, that's always been the kind of "nice guy" 3-star recruits that they have always gotten. The flashy 4 and 5-star guys want a bigger stage than what NU can provide on its' own.
I’m an Alabama fan from way back and I sure do miss a good and often great Nebraska being an elite team - we tried and failed miserably with alumni in the head job - is it coaching or recruiting or both is a question I can’t answer - the late 90s and early 00s were dark days that Coach Saban has basically erased - and he’s a Kent State graduate. We felt your pain Nebraska fans, and look forward to the day those iconic “N” helmets make their way back to prominence
@@christophernash1846 you definitely have that right! The era of the “Mike’s” was what blew everything up - Perkins wasn’t a total disaster as an alum, and neither was Shula. I think for a lot of new or bandwagon fans history began in 2007!
@@joewilliams3919 Alabama's strength is that they have had the 2 greatest coaches of all-time lead the program. Also Wade and Thomas were great too . Bama , along with Ohio State, Michigan, USC, Notre Dame , and Oklahoma are the only schools that I can think of with 4 or more hall of fame coaches who have leads programs at respective schools
@@christophernash1846 complete agreement again - I remember when things were so grim we were excited about landing Rodriguez, until his old lady said she didn't want anything to do with us Alabama rednecks - and Ears Whitworth went 0-10, (with Bart Starr at QB no less), which led to the Paul Bryant era. I know I'm bouncing around, but the history of the program is a hell of a story for lovers of the game....
I would like a tragic downfall that ends with me getting $15 million and a quiet life probably fishing and playing golf is some upscale tax haven. The poor bastard.
As the Oregon OC he had Marcus Mariota at QB. Really fun offense to watch. Took the job at UCF and, again, his offense was fun to watch. He took a 0-12 team and turned them into a 12-0 team in 2 years. Really thought he could at least make Nebraska into a competitive team in the Big 10. That didn’t happen. Really hope he can get a good job and be successful.
Nebraska shouldn't have fired Bo Pelini. He averaged 9 wins a year. Scott Frost should have stayed at UCF and since he came to Nebraska he stuck with Adrian Martinez too long. 🚫😒👎. He never developed/recruited a good consistent quarterback
Nebraska fans just need to realize being in the big 10 no way we can out recruit other school. Also fan base is impatient as hell and still living back in 1997.
Bo Pelini literally won 9 or 10 games every season as HC of Nebraska and they still fire him? That's insane and any coach with a good, stable coaching job at a different school would be stupid to take this job as they clearly see anything less than a National Championship as a failure. They claimed that he was fired because of his behavior towards players, fans, and the school but they also mentioned how he hadn't won a conference title so I'd say that was definitely a factor or they wouldn't have said it.
Maybe learn from PJ Fleck how to inspire the troops as an assistant for a few seasons in an intense developmental setting. Quality people make quality football players. Talent is great, but talent alone does not equal wins.
Frost was given everything he wanted and was beloved by the Nebraska fans because he was one of their own. They were in love with the potential of a storybook ending. I can understand that but one should not lose touch with reality. The facts show that frost was not up to it, coaching wise. That is a problem but what bothered me about him was how he showed little class in the effort. He always reminded me of a spoiled little kid thinking his only responsibility was X's and O's. He was given way to much respect and his behavior was glossed over. I hope NU can find a class coach who can build a successful program. I am happy to see frost go, and of course he will go with his pockets bulging with Nebraska cash. I do not feel he should be loved, well of course if he gave the money back, I might reconsider. I hope he has an opportunity to redeem himself but the mess he made of NU football will take a while to clean up.
He seems to be a classic case of getting put in great opportunities and getting credit for simply getting lucky. He had all the luck early on in his career, and had zero luck at the end. Kudos for making the most of his chances but he seemed to be in over his head from day 1. I think he even knew it and would not have left UCF if it wasn't Nebraska calling him. There is hope bc he is you f enough and can learn and grow maybe, but he will have to either become a coordinator or G5 coach again and have to start over a little. I have never seen a team lose so many close games, which is ironic bc he won almost all the close games at UCF. He just seemed in over his head. Seems like a good dude, so hope he can turn it around..at least he has millions so he will be ok.
if he had been modest and humble, hadn't been greedy and arrogant, it might have been so different. but our unrealistic expectations, and his character flaws made a bad mix. $7,500,000 a year is a recipe for success, and when he didn't perform, it was his downfall!!! He had inherited an empty locker room, but 4 years of his recruiting didn't show any changes. 4 years of loses didn't show any show any talent development. I just didn't see the value of the 7.5 million dollar man.
As a husker fan. Let me say we don’t hate him. We all are really sad it didn’t work. We wanted frost to be the guy. And he’s not. And he’s gonna be a good coach somewhere else and we will root for him like we did when he was at UCF
As a Texas Fan I feel Nebraska’s pain. When we hired coach Charlie Strong who had success at Louisville the year prior it was clear his 3 year tenure showed that coaches who have success at small schools in weak conference’s doesn’t mean they’ll be great at big schools with high expectations.
Frost Should have stayed at UCF and continue to build a dynasty there. Even years after he left, that UCF was still a very very good team. And he was in the perfect position where he could get guys from the state of Florida (which has an amazing pipeline for talent), who maybe weren’t getting the offer from UF, Miami, or FSU and wanted to play close to home in state. Too many instances where “small school” coaches have 1 or 2 years of really great success and go and take these “big school” coaching jobs. They don’t realize that typically those situations are when those programs are in really bad shape or in a pipeline where it’s hard to recruit great players. I believe Nebraska overestimated Frost ability to win at that higher conference level And his ability to get big time recruits to come to Nebraska. Scott Frost is a very good coach, but not a very great or elite one. Ever year Nebraska was right there in games and showing program improvement, but just couldn’t get over the hill. If he were a great coach he would have at least compiled one or two 7-8 win season(s) at least in his 3rd or 4 year. Scott Frost is a good coach, but in that situation he just couldn’t get it done. And he had ample time to do so
We don't hate him. I figured he was going to be very successful and I don't know what the problem was but I think he did the best he could. He deserves respect even though he was not successful.
Ohio State fan here. Good to see Scott has support from Husker fans. He won you a national championship, that is special. I look forward to Nebraska returning to power.
you also never know if he truly had the full backing from the administration, hope he rebounds at a school that can give him their full backing. Administration can come out and say he is their guy but that doesn't mean he has access to resources that Kirby smart and Saban have from their schools.
Not everyone can pull off the homecoming. Even Jim Harbaugh was on the proverbial ropes, in Ann Arbor, then 2021 happened. Sad to see this happen. The B1G needs a strong Nebraska program for more competitive balance, but it now appears that the wandering in the wilderness will be an ongoing thing. The arrival of the LA schools as conference rivals in a mere two years will be staggering.
@@mistermann3225It would seem that the BIG 10 (or however many) and the SEC are intent on growing super conferences and gobling up all of the air time they can get.
I don't think it's fair to call Scott Frost the most hated. He just couldn't get it done and wasn't making any sort of progress. Returning Nebraska to a dynasty is no small feat. Nobody faults the guy for not being able to do it. Just time to see if someone else is up to the challenge.
I can't wait to go I go work and dunk on all my Nebraska friends. Can't WAIT. I'm just sad the failings won't continue. It made for such great jokes/memes
We do not hate him at all! Scott is a stand-up genuine guy, and loved by most in this state. Unfortunately, most of us also see that he isn't going to be successful here...possibly no one will, but the search continues. Shoulda kept Solich, shoulda kept Bo, heck if Callahan would got a decent D coordinator he could still be here
The power houses of the 70's-80's-90's are history. If your not a team in the SEC , being a 9-4 team is considered a miracle. Scott Frost needs to be in a run n gun conference. Old money and Alumni are the poison of most NCAA teams.
Well, you failed to mention exactly why the SEC is so good. It's all about the talent grown in the southern states, not because of any progressive forwards thinking alumni. A lot of players on those great Nebraska teams from the 90s had a lot of kids from California and Florida. Tommie Frazier and Tyrone Williams were from Bradenton, FL and they were dominant players for three years at QB an CB.
Every time I see that name, I think of the old San Antonio Spurs player, Sean Elliott. I know it's not him, but it gives me a chuckle imagining him coaching Nebraska lol.
Not even close to hated. People just don’t want him to be the coach. He’d be welcomed and cheered if he walked out with other alumni THIS WEEKEND. He’s still loved
There’s nothing “tragic” about Frost. Maybe he wasn’t a great fit at Nebraska but he will recover, find a better fitting job and rebound. Never know what’s going on behind the scenes at these schools.
Recruiting, recruiting, recruiting. This is college football. EVERYTHING revolves around recruiting. In the AAC, you can win with 2 and 3 star recruits. Maybe "gimmick-y offensive schemes" as well. When you get into a "Power 5" conference, that ain't gonna fly. Nebraska recruiting was average (at best) during his tenure. I LOVED Frost at UCF. Like Willie Taggert, he's probably more suited to coaching smaller schools where recruiting 4 and 5 star athletes to compete, isn't as important. As a Florida resident, I'd LOVE to see him come to USF (University of South Florida).
I remember he was the top coach in his cycle and was disappointed when my gators didn’t get him. Mullen didn’t turn out well but he did better than frost did
I feel like frost would have succeeded at florida. Talent there that he could recruit fits the offense he likes to run. He could get those Speedy Florida recruits to come to florida. He couldn't get those Speedy Florida recruits he likes to come to Nebraska.
