Not firing Frost this morning is more embarrassing than losing to GA State. It’s short sided to keep him to avoid a large buyout. It only pisses off donors that much more.

I'm trying to figure out why anyone would write a coaching contract where the buyout drops in the middle of the freaking season.  

Who does that benefit?  Who demanded that clause in the contract?

Thats basically saying that they were going to give him until conference play to show them something. Welp.

If Nebraska and Colorado remained in the big 12, I don’t think you see A&M and Mizzou leave. Which would keep Texas and OU. It’s a completely different landscape.

I hope Tom Osborne still has enough mental awareness to know that he ultimately ruined Nebraska football.

I hope his sex change operation went through because he acted like a hysterical woman leaving the B12.

[Js1 85110]

He gone

He gone

[BornAndRaised 12223]

Still a fucking wonder how he lasted this long. Whatever voodoo he did to re-negotiate for this year, I need some to work on my boss.

I want to put a statue up for Trev Alberts and Scott Frost.  I mean they are a fantastic combo.  

I love that this is happening on his watch. If we could somehow tie in Mark May to this debacle, it would be just completely perfect.

Guess it is time to update thread title to "Fired Scott Frost"...

I mean, I don’t see the difference now and when the buyout drops if this was the choice. You get 3 extra weeks to start a search midseason?  Big whoop?

[McCroskey 1493]

$15MM buyout. Would have dropped to $7.5MM on October 1st.

I wonder if they're negotiating it.  If not, you've actually just valued the next few weeks with the interim coach at around $2M each.  Not sure how that works out.

When the school eats $7.5M to make sure you aren’t coaching the next 2 games, that’s some “get the flying fuck outta this state” type shit

[JOSEYWALES66 1790]

Shocked at only the timing.   My understanding is that Nebraska’s athletic department isn’t exactly making a lot of money so I thought they would wait until the buyout dropped.

They both wanted separation as they saw the inevitable... I have no doubt they likely pay the lower number they would on Oct 1st but let him out of his misery now

[immamac 42519]

They should have left him in Dublin.

Nebraska will shoot for Chris Peterson,  urban,  aranda. Nebraska will end up with Barry Odom or Mensa.

Somebody confiscate Pattersons iPhone and quarantine him in Moncrief.  

[ElChupacabra 254]

Frost better update that resume and get it turned in to the Saban School of Remediation ASAP.

[C-Man 27056]

He’s been fired

If you’re Scott Frost would you agree to that?  Fuck I wouldn’t.

All-time weird decision. Season is fucked, why not wait 4 weeks? 

Those cornfuckers better not steal Patterson from us before the season ends

[Make em eat Taco Bell 1549]

He'll get an "analyst" job for $40k , then some small school HC job.

I’m sure he would’ve preferred that. Especially with that extra buyout money.

I'm here for the gangbang.

Hey new HC, come get some!

Mensa is probably about the best they can hope for and would almost certainly be an improvement over what they've had with Frost.

You serious?  County scholarships, partial qualifiers, JUCO pipeline, and steroids.  The formation of the Big 12/BCS coincided with the majority of their system breaking down, getting outlawed, and/or coming under more scrutiny.

[Longboard Horn 40144]

Had to watch this again. The broadcast team said Clay Helton was a splash hire for Georgia Southern

At least Mickey Joseph has a personal score to settle with the Sooners for maiming him in 1990, so it would be the perfect opportunity for something bad to happen to OU.

Herman, Fickel, Odom, and even Tape Fingers should be on the menu.

No Patterson, no Herman.

Eh, the Runza empire probably just coughed up some extra to cover the difference.

Most of those guys would be stupid to leave their current gig. Nebraska is no man’s land for recruiting.

I’m sure they negotiated the buyout down.  They told him look, we ARE going to fire you Oct 1.  But do you really want to be here for 3 more weeks knowing you’re gone?
