Even if Frost manages to get 6 wins, you have to wonder what affect it will have on recruiting and roster attrition
If we get a new coach he can come in and convince some of our better players to stick around and it might energize recruiting for 2023

Although the blood is in the water, I'm thinking he gets another year, but he shouldn't. He's a dead man walking.

He’s toast. If you can’t beat the Illini under the circumstances of that game. You can’t win.

and following that rousing speech, the defense promptly laid down and let Illinois go on an 8 min TD drive to start the 3rd quarter
that speech is straight out of the Tommie Frazier playbook. My friend who played for Tommie at Doane said he once tried to get the team fired up by throwing a chair across the locker room at halftime. the chair bounced off a wall and injured a player so Tommie had to spend the rest of halftime apologizing

Obviously this is all just opinion, but what makes you think this?

I'm wondering if the buyout is truly insurmountable. Those who say he gets one more year because of it's too high, that's $5 million that's keeping him here another year.
Things to also factor in would be the buyout to pull whatever coach we hire from their current program. And frankly, I hope they go with a guy that already has P5 experience. So a buyout would likely be involved.
Matt Campbell and Luke #2ndChoice both have $4 million buyouts.
Gus Malzahn has a staggering $7 million buyout.
Billy Napier sits at $3 million.
On the other hand, if we could pull off a miracle and convince Chris Petersen to come out of retirement, he'd be a free agent. No buyout attached.
Same with Bill O'Brien at Alabama. I looked at his contract and can't find a buyout for him as an OC. In comparison, Venables' contract at Clemson allows him to jump to a HC gig without a buyout. Only time you'd have to pay the school to poach him would be if you wanted him as a DC.
Those hires would nullify $3-$7 million required to make a change after this season. If Turd could get something locked up behind the scenes with a coach like that, he's suddenly footing a bill that people wanting to give Frost five years are essentially admitting they are ok with.

Now you’re speaking my language. I’m driving the Chris Petersen to Nebraska bandwagon if anyone wants to hop on!

Yeah. He's on his way towards the Urban Meyer path to coaching again. Though I guess he would remain at the studio for most of it instead of traveling to the games. Either way, it shows the guy still has some bit of a football itch he wants to scratch. I would be over the moon if Nebraska benefits from that.
