I think not only would he hit it out of the park from a results stand point, he is only 42 and the only candidate that would probably make NU his last HC job. I would definitely take 25 + yrs of SF!! GBR!!

The decision to hire Frost should come from the power of Big Red fans. If Scott is willing to come home... it is the A.D.'s job to not mess this up. Firing Riley was an easy decision. Hiring Frost is a No-Brainer!!

Home grown. Known quantity and quality. Key mentee of Tom Osborne and would be wise to seek advise. Fully aware of the game. Still has a lot of energy. He will bring NU back to the national forefront and make the climb fun.

As Nebraska fans, we need to back off this topic until Saturday night. UCF has done something special this season and those kids need not be distracted in what will be the most important game in nearly all of their careers. They and Coach Frost deserve that we all chill for a few more days.

I'd like a coach that can inspire, teach and motivate. The Husker teams of the last 10 years or so seem to lack any enthusiasm or will to win. Pelini was an embarrassing maniac on the sideline and Riley had zero emotion or fire. Something in the middle would be nice.

Scott Frost is the coach Nebraska needs to get the football program back on its feet again. They need to give him time to implement his style of offense and to get the defense back to being blackshirts.

He is a hometown coach who remembers and lives the actions of a prior legendary husker football coach. Coach Frost will be given as much time as he needs to fill his roster and bring back the tradition on both sides of the ball.

I think over time it's proven that this position needs to have a leader that understands work ethic and our history - no better way to get that done than with not only a previously player but one from a team that brought us our last national championship and the commitment it takes to get there.

This is the best coaching fit in the last 20 years. We can't afford another 20 years of the coaching carousel and failed coaching and offensive scheme experiments. Bring Frost back, resurrect a true bone-crushing Black-Shirt defense and smash-mouth run-pass-option offense like the old days. GBR!

Scott Frost is a winner and understands exactly what it takes to get Nebraska back to playing physical Nebraska football. His record speaks for itself: at Nebraska, the NFL, at Northern Iowa, Oregon and at UCF. Tired of clueless Athletic Directors picking coaches who field finesse teams.

Besides the Husker ties he seems to be the best coach available when it comes to fit, culture, and brining the fan base together. There will always be some people not happy about it and no guarantees he can do what needs to be done but overall would make a great hire.

Scott is a good coach, but people forget he had a slow start when he first came to Nebraska. At UCF he inherited those players, he really doesn't have a complete resume. I would prefer a Les Miles who could bring back the Black Shirts. Scott will be around for years.

If the lines are improved and up to the task, I think they lose to Oregon, Indiana and OSU, maybe split Illinois/Iowa and win the other 7.

Looking at the schedule, 5-0 on the front end is a definite possibility. Going 3-4 on the backend is doable. Having said that, there's still no consistency with this team, making 5-7 just as much of a possibility.

The schedule actually is favorable if you look at not just who we play, but when we play them. Looking at the non con, we'll definitely come out of the gate 3-0, then MSU & MD. We can win those. That would be 5-0. 3-4 on the back end is doable, even if you pencil in IU, OR, & OSU as definite L's.

Never would believe this, but we could come away with only 2-4 wins. I do love the new QB, the new DC coordinator and new OL coach. But no proven RBs, limited personnel in the DL,, Rhule has never learned the run first offense, and we have TOO MANY coaches. A hat on backwards isn't going to help.

We saw what we saw last season and that means little hope we can win 5-6 in 2026. Too many new things to know what is going to happen but easy to assume 8 wins is out of the question.

QB turnover machine. No D tackles. No RBs. Good Luck. 6-6 is the absolute ceiling. 5-7 is what it will be.
