The OC Candidates Thread

Did Frost call the plays at UCF?

Nope it was all Heupel while Frost was swiping right on Tinder and placing doordash requests for a 40 rack of Natty Light.

If it IS Frost, any concern about rehabbing his reputation with recruits and parents? There was an awful lot of damaging rumor and innuendo out on social media last fall. And then there are the coaches who allegedly went to the Admin about him....

Seems like alot to take on when he'd be front and center as OC...

What even makes that more impressive is how Heupel pulled that off while coaching at Missouri at the time. Even more impressive considering there was no Zoom at the time

I trust both Mario and the athletic department/administration (especially with what Gattis did) to thoroughly vet Frost. Last thing this program needs is more attention for misbehaviors and such, given it’s already in the limelight for poor football play with a large budget, and a loud-mouth booster that loves spending money on kids / the whole NIL look (not my perspective, just what the national perception is).

If Frost is OC, I expect they did their full diligence on his background and got the ok from multiple external sources as well.

Maybe Frost & Nebraska just wasn’t a good fit.

I feel like it would be similar to when bama brings on failed coaches for a rehab. Probably will have minimal role in that aspect until ppl magically forget about his issues

Facetime?

If he’s the OC/QB coach he will likely only focus on recruiting QBs and only have to address it with a handful of prospects

Having to run a flea flicker vs Southern Miss to get some momentum was when I knew

You laugh, but when I saw that play, I knew too. I turned to my wife and my initial reaction was, "When we have to use that play... against THIS bunch... this early in the season? This guy (OC) has a flawed plan, or no plan at all." I knew then, that the jig was up. I had no idea that he wouldn't make it to year 2, though. Didn't know it would end this soon.

 

[P-Tizzle]

This season? Well he got fired after 3 games so are you counting the other 9 games against him also?

I clarified in another post. Thanks for replying.

[MumbleRap]

Wrong. Yes, he was fired but he still gets a buyout.

Maybe I misunderstood you. Miami would not have to pay Nebraska a dime to hire Frost. If anything it would reduce the amount Nebraska has to pay Frost, but it wouldn’t affect Miami.

Agree. But that's internally. I'm thinking more about the general public and world of recruits/parents.

It was pretty public stuff. And even if he just recruits one position - QBs, - that's a pretty important group of people.

Just something to think about.

Not more impressive than Hugh Freeze coaching from a hospital bed.

Thanks, brother. You are our solace.
