Having trouble with my vague post? Soon enough means sometime in the future. Take on the big dogs means give them hell on the field rather than giving up 60 points to them.You are delusional!
I am seeing the early signing period as a blessing. We will know with absolute certainty who is coming to NU and a pretty good idea who is not. We will not be wasting time and precious in-home visits on DLine players committed to Georgia nor to RB's committed to Oregon. We'll know who's out there and available, we just have to determine if it's grades, indecision, or something more undesirable.
I like the star ratings. In general, they're a pretty good indicator on which high school football players are seen as having a BETTER PROBABILITY of playing at a certain level. But, the specifics of any one player being great or washing out is not all that good.
personally I am tired of people having a victim mentality.
We have basically been irrelevant for 15 years. The nation does not see NU as a powerhouse. We are more like Minnesota in the 70s.
we can't expect just because we have a Nebraska guy he can turn it around in a few short weeks. Most of the nations recruits have been courted for months or years and cant be expected to change everything. Think of it , none of the present players have any personal recollection of NUs past greatness. They didn't experience it.
I am totally optimistic for the first time since Osborne left. I believe Frost will pull some excellent recruits but we need to be adults and have some patience. Stop being so negative and feel we always get screwed. Our time will come

Not really sure what I said that warranted that kind of response. I thought I was pretty respectful of Nebraska.
Yes, one was a sellout. The other was very close. The rest of the season we finished tops in the AAC for attendance including drawing well for away games. We traveled well too.
But like I said -- we've been playing D1 football for 20ish years. We've had a good amount of success and hopefully we can someday make it into a P5 conference. Nebraska football started in 1890, with that history you all have better fan support and a trophy case full of championships. UCF has gotten off to a good start in the short time we've been around but we've definitely got a long way to go.
You are delusional!
James Franklin's first class at Penn State right after he was hired was ranked 25th. And he took a full class of 25, and didn't have an early signing period to contend with.
His class the following year was ranked 15th. The year after that was 21st. It took him until his 5th recruiting class to get a Top 10 ranked class. It doesn't happen overnight.
Ohio State is always going to have great classes. They are the only major program in a huge, talent-rich state. They still got waxed by Iowa this year, and Urb isn't going to be around forever.
We need to start by winning our division again first. We have always won the recruiting rankings in our own division, so if Scott can coach em up, that should translate to winning the division on the field.
I'm fine with a smaller class myself. I remember a large and very mediocre classes brought in by Callahan & Pelini with their first classes. And I've heard experts say that they expect 90% of the prospect to sign early (sounds a little high to me). If only 10% of the prospects remain, it will be tough for Frost to find a lot of talent to fill out a large class anyway. Frost expects to sign 20. If for some reason he comes up short, I won't lose sleep over it.
I'm hoping for a great class in 2019.

Frost made his decision but from a UCF fan perspective I always thought 4 full years with sustained success would have led to a much bigger talent pipeline if he moved on to Nebraska. It is going to be difficult for him to compete and bring in Urban Meyer level talent when he was only in the State of Florida for 2 years. Meyer was in Florida for 5 years and won 2 National Championships. He established an entire recruiting network inside the State of Florida and the rest of the south in places like Virginia Beach as well.
I do think UCF beating Auburn will benefit Frost's recruiting at Nebraska the rest of this cycle. At UCF he did a good job closing the last few weeks before the February signing day. Marlon Williams and C. Richardson were 2 big gets that were not in the picture till maybe less than a month to the last signing day. Frost is going to really need to overachieve Year 1(9 wins) to get in the same neighborhood as Harbaugh & Meyer in the Recruiting World.

Hey smartass......you even graduate from NUB? We have won 3 conference championships and appeared in 2 NY6 bowl games in the last 5 years. And done this with a fraction of the $$$ resources that NUB has done nothing with over that time frame. If UCF could sustain this success it is only a matter of time before we are invited to a P5 league. It always amazes me why the fans of so called Blue Blood programs feel the need to shit on up and coming schools.
Best of luck to Frost and Co. I will always be thankful he saw what UCF could be.....unlike most NuB fans.
I don't understand your point here. You responded to somebody who was ridiculing you for your inability to sell out games by talking about all of the success UCF has had. By doing so, you are making the fact you can't sell out games in such a small stadium look even worse.
# of 'ships for this year alone mean lower rankings (learn the rating/ranking system for those that don't know). And please don't make me have to bring up the FACT that stars don't always translate on the field and that coaching can be a factor....
Since this turned into another UCF thread, I'll just say good luck to them in their bowl game vs. Auburn. I hope they play well (I know I'll be watching and cheering for them)

You also had an 0-12 season in the last 5 years. Remind me the last time that happened at Nebraska?
Makes your sustained mediocrity over the last 10 years even more shocking....
Your anger over us taking your coach is palpable. Do you realize how fun it is to watch you melt down? And not only that, you came over to our board to do it right in front of us. It's like the circus has pulled into town, and we don't have to plunk down one red nickel to watch the elephants take a massive dump all over the UCF logo.
Please continue. I love seeing you seething with anger and making a fool out of yourself. And the next time you feel angry about us taking your coach, come on back and display that anger for all of us to watch again. It's a beautiful thing.
UCF didn't deserve Scott Frost. You'll experience sustained mediocrity again soon without him. Good luck with your coach that got fired as offensive coordinator at his alma mater.
Keep the anger coming! I love it! Let it well up inside you. When you kick your coffee table just make sure you wear closed-toe shoes. If you happen to break a toe, we want to see pics your next visit, K?
Frost & his staff have just gotten started & some people are already unhappy? 
Come on, give them a chance. This will take a while to get going. I still think we'll land some big targets when signing day comes in February. If you're truly a Husker fan, than you'll show support no matter what.

The ignorance of this post is quite laughable. Good luck with CSF and your upcoming season.
Complain about him now but when he turns things around you'll claim you always supported him. Bandwagon fans are the scum of the earth.
Yeah, Frost sucks, doesn't he? Has only landed 7 recruits in 2 weeks, while working part-time. A 4-star QB, DB, and 2 time JUCO All-American RB, who was a 4-star coming out of high school. Sucks to be us.
Why do people insist that UCF only had success with Frost? Furthermore they also insist the he rebuilt UCF. Neither one of these things are true. Just my opinion but I think there are a great deal of Nebraska fans that are setting themselves up for disappointment.

I guess all of the organizations that awarded Frost National Coach of the Year must be delusional too. Pardon me for putting more faith in their opinion than some Iowa clown from a message board that thinks going from 0-12 to 12-0 isn't a rebuild. Instead of posting a bunch of garbage, why don't you just post "I'm an idiot" and save us the time of reading your messages.
Frankly, even if he was in Florida for 10 years, Frost may never "get in the same neighborhood" as Harbaugh and Meyer. Michigan & OSU are in much better recruiting area's and, even if you take Florida out of the equation, Meyer could get a top 5 class every year.
I think most Husker fan's will be happy to finish in the top 20 in recruiting rankings, and then trust Frost and staff to "coach them up".
I think many of us can admit we've done this, before the season, every year for the last decade!
Obviously, I was incredibly negative on Riley. I honestly think Riley and Staff could’ve taken the 2009 defense and manage to f that up.

I wouldn’t run my gums about our class. SF is known as a 3* recruiter and he backed it up. He landed 1 4* due to a coaching change and lost 2 4*. We have 5 different ranked 3.5* out of 14. That’s the most low level 3* recruits we’ve had in years!! The RB - we beat. out Boise St and ASU sigh
Yes because taking over a 0-12 team and going 12-0 in two years is so easy. How many coaches have done that? 1 and his name is Scott Frost
Ucf fans:
Ok, youre better, now stop acting insecure and get your asses back to the ucf boards and quit worrying about little old NU.
GTFO

It’s amazing how easy it is to poke a hole in this post… You claim that Frost got a four star player simply because of a coaching change. In other words, because Tennessee went through a coaching change, it’s hard for them to sign players. Well guess what genius… Nebraska is going through a coaching change too! And yet they’re supposed to get four star players? You are ridiculous.
