So now that Frost has been officially retained, what do you believe a successful is for him in 2022? Not what he will do, but what the "bar" is.
What's a successful season I 2022?

4-8 and give the new staff time to get their system in. Run it back in 2023!

He hasn’t hit my bar since year 1 when I had no expectations for win/loss record.
I had us going 5-7 this year, I think next year (depending on QB situation) we go 6-6 finally and we retain Frost with that as everyone who wanted to keep Frost (I did not) will call that progress.

Should have gotten 8 wins this year. I’ll stick with that mark next year without looking at the schedule.

Successful vs. what will happen are two different things.

Musts:
Northwestern
NorDak
Georgia Southern
Rutgers
Indiana
Minnesota
Purdue
Illinois
Need 1 of any of these:
Oklahoma
Michigan
Wiscy
Cockeye
9-3 is a Mike Riley 2016 special. 2023 = 2017, though the 2023 schedule is reasonable at this point.

Could go 6-6 with Ws against Northwestern, North Dakota, Georgia Southern, Rutgers, Indiana and 1 of 3 teams we lost badly to this year (garbage time TDs saving double digit losses, for those who may have forgotten), then win a garbage bowl game. Winning record, lifetime contract.
Honestly that’s probably enough for a big chunk of the fan base, but I sincerely hope he’d be fired if that’s how things go

I actually think he would be fired before the bowl game in that situation. Which shoots a gaping hole in this narrative that today's "decision" allows the entire fan base to come together if next year is a failure.
6-6 would be an abject failure, and you'll still have the casual side of the fan base shouting "SEE!!! PROGRESS!!!" from the tops of all the grain elevators. The same exact portion of the fan base that is happy with today's news.

Every single game should be winnable. If I saw we were playing that schedule 10 years ago I’d assume we win everything except maybe boomers and Wiscy. My how we have fallen.

This is one of my biggest concerns with him being retained. We can go 6-6 next season and make a bowl and people will scream “PROGRESS” when in reality we may not be any better bc our schedule is so much easier.
