You'd give your right testicle to have someone like Woody Hayes, wouldn't you?We miss this next pitch and nobody will be able to tell us from UT. Well, If UT hires even a good coach they will be so far above us that people will be able to tell the difference.
Gary Sharp, a radio host out of Omaha said today that Frost is pretty much a lock to go to UF, and that Strictlin is working super fast to get this deal in place, and that Frost is extremely interested in coaching the Gators. Sharp went on to say that he knows a few prominent boosters that live in Ocala that told him all this, TIFWIW. One booster even said he'd "bet his house" that Frost is coaching the Gators next season.
Sharp also said UF reached out to Bob Stoops to kinda feel him out (in case the Frost deal goes south), but Bobby is quite happy in retirement.
There isn't an HC out there without risks of falling short. So, with any "up & comer" you have to see explanations of "why" this one excells :
1) Nowhere has Frost failed at coaching young men.
2) Players praise his coaching style, none denigrate,.
3) His coaching is inspiring involved on-the-field of practice.
4) During games, Frost thoughtfully paces the sidelines consulting his sheet of 'tried and trued' color coded schematricks. (This connectedness reminds me of Spurrier.)
5) In all public speaking endeavors, he superiorly represents his college and his players and coaches.
6) He overtly takes responsibility for results. He fully knows "the buck (starts &) stops here.
7) He's in athletic physical shape = dynamic performance of his duties. (an HC rarety)
8) Frost leads by examples and that leaves no confusion in young players' minds (or coaches).
9) Frost is "best friend" with the process, not buddy buddy with players.
10) He has picked a staff that keeps up with him, their CEO.
These are rare traits vitally operating in any one HC.
I couldn't help realizing that these are all opposites of who we just fired and all who need firing.
IMHO, in 2018, Frost will continue his upward rise wherever he coaches. I'd like it to be here.
I had a contact inside the Meyer staff (not a coach), and I can attest the Mullen was not well liked. Whether or not everyone hated him is unknown, but he was not well liked. Also, when Muschamp came on board there was noticeable friction among the coaching staff."UAA and everyone in ADs office hates him." How do you KNOW this? Have you taken a poll? Did you communicate regularly with UAA personnel back in 05-08? With Foley gone, is everyone in the AD's office still there (well, admin assistants and such are probably still there, they don't come and go with the AD) How do we know that if he was unpopular with those working in UAA back then, he hasn't changed since? I do know that in '05, as the new OC, he came to speak to our Savannah Gator Club, and was very personable.
Are these just 2 random dudes talking in twitter?
I'll take "Martha did NOT go to UF" for 400 Alex
I think Nebraska's new AD was Frost's AD during his time at Oregon
One of your finest posts rog.
But you left out all the great football minds he's played under and coached with. Both offensive and defensive. He's played both sides of the ball! This dude understands football.
Ancient never wanted Chimp or Butters to leave. Loves 14 point offenses.
Not even remotely interested in a guy that averages only 31 pts per.
Loud and clear.That shyt isn't anywhere near the list.
Vandy may be interested in the future though.
I️ think we should seriously look at Kiffin. He has FAU rolling and bowl eligible
