I wonder how close he was to be named the next HC.How did I completely erase the Mickey Joseph era from my memory? What a strange time haha
You could sort of tell that Frost hated it here right away, the "Don't ask about my family" and "Don't interview my family" stuff. He was super guarded before he even started.
I sort of get it but I think you actually embrace it, like Rhule seems to have done, it is probably better.
I agree. I felt like he was abrasive with the fans as soon as he was hired. Major miscalculation on his part. But he got a fat buy out to go away. His wife won in the end.You have to embrace it 100%. And that goes for pretty much any D1 job, especially any high profile job. You can’t have one foot out and the expect it to work. This job demands 100% of you, anything less will be certain failure.
And FWIW, that was super cringe when Scott attempted to publicly keep his family out of the picture. His wife may have wanted it that way, but she’s not the one hired to resurrect Husker football and cash million dollar checks. Some jobs are too big for your wife’s “feelings” to be a factor in how you operate professionally. If you want to be married to someone making $5 million a year you might have to put some of your trivial feelings on the back burner. JMO
Plus, it is not like the Lincoln/Omaha media was going to ask hi wife some hard hitting questions. They would have done one interview asking how she liked Lincoln and Nebraska and what it felt like to be married to one of the most "famous" people in the state.You have to embrace it 100%.

both of these scenarios have quite literally never been more realisticit's unrealistic to think that A) we should've purged the entire roster, or B) that every single "Frost recruit" was a worthless bum who is inherently bad at football.
I was JUST going to post this!Yeah I didn't understand that. I had no idea who Pelini, Callahan, and Solich's wives and kids were. Unless you're dating someone a third of your age like Belichick, I don't think anyone cares about a coach's wife/girlfriend.
But, don't they stay clear anyway?Frosty has given us plenty of reasons to make fun of him, but asking the media to stay clear of his fam ain't one of them. He had the juice at the time and i got zero probs with the ask.
But, don't they stay clear anyway?
I literally could tell you NOTHING about TO's family, Billy C's family, Frank's family, Bo's family...I remember Riley had a wife that was allergic to paint. That is it.
Matty"It was what some other people wanted me to do to some degree."
This sounds like he blames TO and his parents.
There were plenty of stories about their wives.I was JUST going to post this!
I don't even know if those guys were married (hopefully they were not)!
I can't even imagine the number of people who were in his ear about it. Definitely not just TO and his parents that's for sure haha"It was what some other people wanted me to do to some degree."

They would not have been like "How do you like Lincoln so far and what are your thoughts on abortion, trans-rights and the middle east?"
About as close as you were to fulfilling your dream of banging porn stars 🤣I wonder how close he was to be named the next HC.
Riley’s wife (surprised she didn’t get more attention)But, don't they stay clear anyway?

My dream and the porn stars nightmare!About as close as you were to fulfilling your dream of banging porn stars 🤣
Parcells always said, "My wife doesn't know if a football is filled with air or stuffed with feathers."The mindset of the average CFB fan who thinks they have the right to know everything, and access to coaches families is bizzare. Nothing a wife might say would interest me.. in fact, unless she's a smokeshow posting bikini pics I couldn't care less if I even knew what they looked like.
Fortunately for them the nightmare would only last 35 seconds 😉My dream and the porn stars nightmare!
I wish it lasted that long!Fortunately for them the nightmare would only last 35 seconds 😉
