The only way Frost agrees to a restructured contact is he is VERY confident in next year's wins. Otherwise, he takes the $20 mil buyout and moves on.
Official - Frost back in 2022 with restructured contract
- Thread starter BigRed_Cheesehead
- Start date
When Nebraska went through its last "dark ages" from 1941-1961, they cycled through 7 coaches in that time...including a couple native son former players. That was during a time when the athletic department was almost broke in the post WWII years. You absolutely can, and should, keep firing coaches until you find "the guy". Frost is not cut from that cloth.
Not the decision I would have made. But I will support it. Let’s hope they can make the needed changes (OL, ST, etc) to start winning games.
Smelled this a mile away.
Hope he does real good next year!
GO BIG RED!!!

You're salty tears are delicious! Keep crying anti-Froster's!!!
I have a LOT more money for other travel and sporting events in 2022. Not spending any in Lincoln. Good to know so I can plan accordingly.
Couldn't risk losing those 2 and 3 star recruits we have coming in next year apparently.
This program is nothing more than a joke at this point....
Yep. this off-season I can actually sit around in peace knowing that if he fails againt to win, there is no debate if he should be fired or not. Even the national media is saying that after this news brook today. It's a very calming feeling. This season was incredibly stressful and we all know, as you pointed out too, any other name and he would already be fired.
Now we just wait and see how things go next season and if it's another season of losses, he is gone but the football program will live on.
So Trev give him an ultimatum? If you don't want to suffer the humiliation of a firing, shave 10 million off your buyout?
Keep enjoying the 2nd worst coach in the history of the school!
Your prognostication hasn't exactly been on point.
Frost should stay.
We are close.
Frost is gone without a doubt.
OU will destroy Neb.
OSU will make Neb look silly.
But keep throwing stuff out there. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once and a while.
use the saved money to buy some players now that they can earn money.....bring in some 4-5 star transfers that with the endorsement deals......time to funnel the big money floating around (save 20 million not buy out SF contract) to buy the best assistant coaches and players we can get....ALL IN MODE
Absolutely unbelievable. We have turned into the biggest joke in College Football and are asking for more.
The entire AD needs purged. This is fvcking sickening.

And Trev Alberts won this round. Not Frost. New contract that Trev was able to leverage.
Relax man. Trev got us out of that terrible Moos contract. I consider that a win today. If it would have been the ame contract, then there would be a lot of angry people. New contract = less money to spend to fire him if he losses again and that saved money can be spent hiring a damn good staff after 2022.
Just because it's not your way doesn't mean it's not right. I'll trust TA since he's a bit closer to the program than you or any others here on this board. Where has all the firing in the past gotten us? Half the people here look back and claim, "we should have kept so-and-so". Hell, why not submit your resume since you have the answers.
He had to announce something to the recruits as soon as possible. At the same time it's still going to be a tough sell that Frost will be around after next year. I'm guessing that there is something in the contract that they at least need to get to .500 for Frost to keep his job. Otherwise this would be insane.
You seem a tad unbalanced
So if you are Chinander or Fisher or Tuioti, why wouldn't you try to flee the sinking ship after this season, knowing that Frost will likely get fired next year and the defense might take step backwards after losing Domann, Stille, CTB,etc.?
Well at least we know Nebraska's Athletic Department & Boosters are not interested in winning so now I wont have to spend my money on something that has already been pre-determined to fail. Win for my budget.
Well he does have Mania in his name so it's not like he's hiding it or anything.
Nobody is an anti froster dumb dumb… everybody wants Nebraska to succeed in all things football with Frost obviously. But call a spade a spade 3-5 wins season are unacceptable. I don’t understand why it’s so hard to comprehend.
This is the rational way to look at it. I don't expect it to go over well on here though.
it's really not that hard to figure out is it? if you were running a real business this would have never happened. without a real qb, next year will just be more of the same. you might call this socialist football.
And I'm sure, you and I and many others will be on Frost's ass from Day 1, as we should be.
I'm just a peon, but I'm not cutting the dude any slack. $ 5 million a year says there MUST be results. This "we're close" or moral victory crap doesn't fly with me and I'm sure others feel the same. A great coach can and will turn those close losses (not all) into wins.
I think the whole season next year depends on IF and HOW MANY changes are made on this coaching staff. A real OC and a real OL coach, a real QB coach, and a real ST coach are in desperate need.
This offense continues to go backwards each year, has ZERO identity, and defenses have shown they can slow them down after they move from to 20 to the 20 yard line. Throw out Ford, Buff, and Northwestern and look at what the offensive numbers show.
Chip Kelly at UCLA has an almost identical W/L record as SF, and Chip even plays in a weaker conference, and HE is proven as a head coach at the Power 5 level, yet he can't get it done in a hugely populated recruiting area.
We are now 3 weeks away from the end of the season. It will interesting to see how many current players hit the portal. With the loss of the Super Seniors and the weak recruiting class coming in, this staff is up against it if they strike out in the transfer portal.
I think it's great. We get another year or two of every week being "Frost's biggest game of his career" and weekly "we're going to learn a lot about what this team is made of this week."
Feel the exact same way. Wont be rocking any husker gear, wont be going to a game, wont be watching or listening to any games. I am done.
He has $20 million reasons to believe in more than winning.
So pull up a seat kids. I wasn't expecting this.
Let's talk about what this means then I'll take a step back.
We had sent out feelers. We had gotten some nibbles. I know this.
What happened between then and now I don't know. But this isn't something to celebrate. This tells us a lot.
It tells us that of the candidates Trev went for, and he did go for them, none wanted the job. It means that the reality of where this program stands compared to other programs is a gut punch of reality.
I hope against all odds that Frost wins more than 7 next year. I feel 7 is nothing to be excited about with next year's schedule.
I commend Trev for talking Frost into a restructured contract. I assume he did a "My way or the high way" speech and good for him. Good for Frost for turning down millions upon millions and agreeing to it. I will wait and see the contract to judge though.
But this isn't good.

Your last sentence in that post makes you a tad stupid as well. So sorry this is happening to you.
You didn't make the decision, what are you crowing about?
Cheer up everyone, Nebraska’s moral victories are about to sky rocket
I like the idea that Frost will stay at Nebraska! Did not want Nebraska getting Bob Stoops! From what I have been hearing is that Stoops is itching to get back into coaching again which give Iowa a chance to hire him. Ferentz can't coach for ever! Good luck with you new, old coach! In my opinion, Nebraska may piss pound Iowa this year! Your defense is much improved but your offense screws the pooch! At least you have an offense that can move the ball!
Are you an Iowa fan? All the Iowa fans are happy today. Along with the rest of the Big ten
