Dean stated Frost has "Full Support of the President, Chancellor, AD, and Board of Regents.

I can tell you that is inaccurate. He does not have full support from Moos anymore, and a few on the BOR. There are a couple more on the BOR that are on the fence and have concerns about the direction on the program.

That is all.

I didn't understand that at all...All the guy said was "How many times will be we get out-coached this season?" Typically they just ignore those types of questions. I'm not sure why that warranted a response like "Take a lap!" Maybe a little of the fanboy coming out in him?

Fanboy/Gerrod/feeling big time that Scott is asking him for advice/white knighting

Where does Moos stand with Frost?

Where does Moos stand with Frost?

From a personal standpoint, not good. Professionally, it will depend which way the wind is blowing during the course of the season. He has already tried to up the ante publicly by saying we should win 8 or 9. Long story short, it's not a case where Frost has "full support" of his AD. But it probably doesn't matter anyway because Moos will be gone before Frost.

 

[Blackshirts_Win_'ships]

Turns out embarrassing your AD is a bad move. Huh.

 

[Pipe Line]

I have a question about this, and feel free to say you can't answer the question. But, I feel like at this point it goes deeper than "doesn't have support".


Are there certain areas of the program that are of concern/not of concern? Is it offensive philosophy? Is it different pieces of the coaching staff that Frost is putting his neck out there for? Is it staff cohesiveness based on the rumors of a rift between Austin and Frost?


I ask this because I feel like it can't be an issue of the program as a whole because defense is obviously better, S&C and Nutrition is much better, and I don't feel like Recruiting is a mess like some do. So I gotta feel like there are specific things that people don't agree with Frost on and that's where people "are on the fence" about.


Also assuming the Oklahoma deal has something to do with it?

You can tell with the media there's a political element to this. They get their marching orders. That's obviously not true Deab. I have a good bud who's around a regent all the time....that regent isn't "fully supporting" Frost anymore, or at least that was my understanding a few months ago. Things can change obviously so I can't say that's still the same story today.

The Moos thing is as obvious as it gets for me. The OU sitch really helped bring that to light. It told us Frost is above Moos essentially, which is bonkers to me. It also told you people above Moos were willing to change the rules in order to help their guy have a better chance to be retained. I never thought I'd see something like that in regards to Nebraska football.

This adds nothing but got a kick out this while searching gifs.

 

[Goskers07]

To be fair, Dean also believes that Frost was seriously asking him advice on how many scholarships he thought he could take. So take the chat with a grain of salt.

Ole deano is such a penis

Yeah I quit reading the chat at that point

 

[TraditionCoalition]

Sean never answered my question about getting Gregg included in the chats as well.

Yeah Dean and some others really seem to view everything about Frost and the current situation in black and white. Just because he doesn't have higher ups actively plotting against him doesn't mean he has a free 7-year pass, or that nobody is concerned in the least. I have zero inside info or access to boosters/board of regents/whoever, but common sense says that they're not a group of identical starry-eyed Frost worshippers who are willing to follow him anywhere he goes.

Going into year four, the higher ups have clearly given incredible patience and leeway for Frost. I understand why, and I hope it pays off. But that doesn't mean that they will just keep perpetually giving him more patience and leeway for the rest of time, or for another losing season for that matter. I just don't get the point of pretending that the way someone feels in June 2021 automatically dictates the way they will feel in late November 2021 if things are circling the drain for the fourth straight year.

Also, I feel like I have to add this to the end of a lot of my posts just to be clear: I am actually rooting for Frost to succeed! I badly want it to happen and will be a depressed shell of myself if we have to declare this era a failure and move on to yet another new coach. So maybe some of these higher ups are like me: I'm firmly rooting for Frost -AND- I think he's underachieved badly so far -AND- I think he could still work out -AND- I think he's almost out of time to prove it.

I am convinced Sean gets orders from one man on how to handle Scott:

Haha I picture him "handling" Dean like a mobster.

GERROD: "I'm not tellin you what to do Dean, you know dat right? I would nevah tell a big man like YOU what to do"
DEAN: "No, no of course not, I'm my own man! I've risen to power all on my own!"
GERROD: "Dat's right dat's right, we just... we see tings the same way, don't we? You're one of us..."
DEAN: "Yeah!"
GERROD: "What?"
DEAN: "I mean- yes sir."
FROST: "Hey Dean... how many scholarships do you think we have to give out this year?"
DEAN: "15! I mean... 15 by my calculations sir..."
FROST: "And how many higher ups are after my job?"
DEAN: "Absolutely none sir..."
FROST: "...He's alright."

*Gerrod throws a wad of cash in Dean's face and they drive off*
