Title: Oregon OC Top Candidate for Nebraska Job
Post by: Marshal Dillon on December 01, 2014, 10:55:39 PM
Taking a huge chance on another assistant, instead of head coach.


Quote
Oregon offensive coordinator Scott Frost is Vegas' favorite to take over Bo Pelini's position as head coach of Nebraska, via Bovada.


Quote
Former Rutgers and NFL head coach Greg Schiano is also listed, as are current Big Ten coordinators Tom Herman and Pat Narduzzi.

Tough gig. Gotta be consistently better than 9-3. A tall order.

Vandy could be 9-3 in that league.   :popcorn2:

Scott Frost would be a Gus bus type hire. They'll play lights out offense with no "D".

Scott Frost is who the fan base wants. I lived in Nebraska for five years in the early 90's. Frost was the local high school stud at that time. He shunned Nebraska and signed with Stanford out of HS. He transferred to the Huskers after riding the bench at Stanford. He was a good QB for them and won a NC. He played for Tom Osborne who had nasty "Black Shirt" defenses at that time. Frost should understand the importance of playing solid "D".

He could be perfect for the job but like MD said it is a huge risk in hiring a coordinator with no HC experience. I also agree with Chech that winning 9 games with their schedule is not a great accomplishment. A typical schedule consists of 6 games you can not lose, 3 games you should win and 3 games that could go either way.

Coach Mac is a candidate as well.
