I agree there is a good chance he is at UCF next year, but not regardless of who comes calling. That's crazy. There are about five potential openings that he would probably jump at and if none come open or none offer him, I'm sure he will stay.
I don't believe its Crazy at all. I believe he likes it where he is, and he is building HIS program from the ground up with limited Fan Expectations. And, both he and his wife, who is about to have their first baby, say they really like it at UCF. And he makes a Couple Million a year now, and is about to make more. He has a VERY nice situation right where he is. I am not saying he wouldn't accept an offer from a Household Name school, but do believe it is atleast a 50-50 chance he stays right where he is, regardless of the offers. And I also believe it will take more than just money to get him to move.
Good post. But the million dollar question is this: how ambitious is Scott Frost with regard to his coaching career? If he has little ambition and just wants a safe and secure school where he can pocket millions while raising his kids in sunny Florida then he will stay. But if he is ambitious (and I think he is) he views his current job as a stepping stone and not a destination. And as I said elsewhere, Frost has to know that his stock as a head coach for a blue blood power 5 team may never be higher than it is right now. The iron is hot NOW.
And if he and his wife came out and said they hate living in the Orlando area, then people would view him as uncommitted long term to the university.
Exactly. If you are Frost you know that so far NU has not fired Riley or Tennessee Davis. And no school has yet offered him squat and may not. So of course you keep saying and doing all the right things
Yes, but every coach is going to say they will be back, until they don't come back. This is the reality of college sports. It is no different when recruits commit and decommit to a school. They are committed up until they decommit.
Not intended that way at all. I do think Frost will leave UCF for a Power 5 school - if not Nebraska, then one of his other likely suitors. But if UCF makes a strong effort to keep him, that still speaks well of the program and other prospective coaches will take notice.
There are plenty in here saying exactly the opposite. That NU can do what they want, get who they want, any they will say yes. And if they don't, well, it means NU didn't really want them anyway. I think the fact that someone like Riley was hired anyway - from a mediocre to bottom tier P5 OSUw program shows that just may not be the case anymore.
And yet, it’s still a better job than UCF. Easily.
It's a message board. You should expect somebody to respond when you post stupid stuff. You, more than anybody, should know that.
We got Riley because that's who the former AD wanted, he didn't even do a search. I'm sorry it hurts your feelings that you might lose your coach, but you just sound ignorant right now.
Right there in the contracts. And Yes, Osborne is a dick who does not support anybody but his hires. He refused to come talk to Callahans team early in his tenure. And he made a show of "giving up his box" this year. That is his right, but shows just how bitter he is. He powdered Blos diaper so many times.
Thinking you can probably hire a native son coach with less than two years experience from UCF now equals thinking you can do what you want, get anyone you want. These guys are insufferable. I've never seen such a bad case of little mans sysndrome.
My nuts are really tired of fan boys like you tugging on them. Tommy Boy AD is gone, but the damage is done. Message received Nation Wide that we don't need no damn talented kids here with darker pigment in their skin.
At least we have a shadow.
