Does anyone think that Frost would forfeit his buyout? That would be honorable and keep him on good terms, but has that ever happened? I mean of this magnitude
Coaching Move?

Nope sorry guys, I must have been REALLY high, I watched 5 early interviews and I can't find it.
Not sure that would bode well for us. Kind of like the 9 win season argument. Why would any coach come here if they could get fired after the 3rd game of a season?
I remember when some were saying Riley should do this. Hell no they wouldn't forfeit their buyout & I'm pretty sure none of us would either.
I think Frost will be better off getting fired and he can go back to some no name school and not be heard from again and he can focus on getting his life back in shape.
I looked at game photos to see if I could see if Frost was wearing his weeding ring or not and it's clear from photos from the game he had no weeding ring on.
It's sad that he may be lying to fans and the media about his personal life. I know it's none of our business, but don't lie about it.

You really need to at a minimum add the “other” option.
I could list a number of reasons why
Let’s start with the biggest ☝🏻
The donors like Scott, the school likes him/ owes him $25M.
I get it’s not been good at points during a few to many games. The man didn’t come back to N and forgot how to coach. Our talent is better, mental lapses aren’t being coached believe it or not. The do have 11 more games to play. I’m sure by then we shall have a better idea what kind of changes are appropriate for the staff.
As you’re aware, in recruiting relationships take time. With both kids/parents & their HS coaches. So change sets schools back, it’s used negatively against us by others schools
I agree the coaching carousel is an awful, destructive game, but this is also ‘serious business’ and there’s a lot of consequences to persisting as bottom dwellers and accepting it.
The reasons have been outlined at length on this board, but in year 4 it’s abundantly clear Frost simply isn’t capable in this league.
1. Lowest scoring offense in 40 years last year (approx. 150 QBs threw more TDs last year, 150!!).
2. Illinois had a bottom tier defense last season, returning much of the same group, and had a few months with new coach to prepare.
3. They beat us with a Rutgers backup transfer and were missing top 2 WRs.
4. We had a 13 play stretch on Sat. that went for -8 yards (negative 8).
5. I re-watched the offense, and our OL play was puzzling. They got consistently torched against 4 man rushes (and a notable 3 man rush). It was rough.
6. The scheme didn’t help
7. Special teams woes years in a row clearly points to coaches not preparing their team.
8. A nation leader in fumbles in his 4th year being allowed to not cover up the ball in a collapsed pocket is also the coaches fault.
9. Other coaches coach fundamentals, and they win more games with ‘lesser talent’ recruiting-wise…. our Junior gets flagged for taunting.
Consistent lack of discipline and basic skills. I don’t blame coaches for isolated mistakes, but years of perpetual patterns are not coincidence.
10. …. the list is plenty longer, but how many reasons does it take?
September 4, 2015 was last time FBS upset was pulled.
Rutgers opens with Temple on Thursday.
Wisconsin hosts Army this year.
FCS upsets are rare. Congratulations to the Rams.
I don't see Appalachian State here.
You forgot the most hilarious part of Saturday outside of Cam's safety. Frost snapping the ball and dropping Adrian back to pass at the end of the 1st half. Even Reggie Bush was dumbfounded by it during the halftime show.
It’s over. If you can beat the Illini under the circumstances of that game. You are doomed. He needs to be done.
If I were doing the the hiring, I would look for a coach that has a track record of improving his teams each year and assure them they would be given a chance here to succeed. SF was given 4 years to improve here. If SF loses his first three games and gets fired, that’s his own damn fault for not getting the team ready to play. I’m not sure any school would be content with a record like SF. If he wasn’t SF, he probably would have been fired 2 years ago!
So prospective head coach, I see you have a track record of building programs, developing players, and improving their record each year. You would be given the necessary and reasonable time to do that here as we’ve done for previous coaches here (and pretty much what other schools do which is about 4 years). Do you believe in yourself to do that here? If so, then you are the coach we are looking for!
I get it .. but you’re over looking the biggest issue you have. Those that sign the checks LIKE him.
Might I suggest a GoFundThis page
Was it stupid? Yes. But it literally had zero effect on the game. He got sacked so what
