Well its hard to argue that culture has changed for the better based on the results. We definitely look more like a football team than we did in 2017 but the eyeball test only matters in pictures and weightlifting videos.
This is a JV gimmick offense through and through. I am expecting a bounce pass at some point during a game (an intentional bounce pass).
so is frost being to much of a friend to the players and when he ask them to do something they go through the motions because they don’t respect him?

What's stopping you bud? These guys are proving you don't have to be any good to get paid.
Great post and analogy. Its kind of counter-intuitive, but it seems like Frosts approach is almost too "team based". He rotates players like its a frigging clown car half the time and nobody can get into a rhythm. At some point he's going to have to identify the guys that can win and give them the opportunity to impose their will on an opponent. Sorry, but having 5 running backs that account for a total of 1000 yards is nowhere near as good as having 1 that goes for 900. Pick a guy, tell him "its on you", and go with it.
And there are people out there who will continue to say, "And they deserve every penny."
Criteria to be a coordinator at Nebraska
Nah we pay pretty average salaries. Since Frost obviously can't identify and pick up good assistants from some backwoods university like Saban can, we need to start paying top dollar and bringing in great assistants.
Unfortunately Frost never gave us a chance to do that when he was hired. Florida never gave Frost a chance to do that when they supposedly offered him and he wasn't hired. Who's the smart school here?
Agree with frost needing to take responsibility. The clapping take from him seems like another whiny take. It would be one thing if this were the first time Cam had bad snaps but now he seems to be making excuses for the players to not offend them or something. Hope he isn’t over his head but I worry he is another former player not cut out to be the head man
The staff has sucked a lot of times the last three years, but today wasn’t one of them. We were ready to play and had a solid plan on both sides. A huge miscue by CTB, cost us big time and so did a whiffed block by Farniok, but today (for once) wasn’t about being out coached.
Imo frost has surrounded himself with mediocre assistants there not making him any better
I’m usually one to defend coaches who aren’t on the field executing, and agree with the concept about today not necessarily being on coaches.
