I see this repeated all the time and just don't buy it. if anything, Frost's failure as the golden boy former player makes things easier for an outsider if this season ends up being as big a dumpster fire as it looks right now
With top assistants making $1-1.5 million in CFB there's plenty that would love to take a shot at resurrecting a blue blood from the abyss while getting paid $5 million+ per year. It's a win-win for those coaches, because even if they fail they will have $30 million to show for it and will be financially set for life
