Sipple is tight with Frost. So, normally Sipp is iffy, but on shit like this he is usually really reliable.

Frost said himself after year 1 entering year 2 they were about to take off. He had a lot of quotes that didn’t exactly make himself look credible that year after we saw the product. That’s when i started questioning if he was our guy or not.

Yes and no.
Yes- The kids you recruit will be what you want your program to represent. He wants Oregon Speed in Lincoln. My opinion, Oregon Speed is soft. Recruit kids that match that, will indeed be soft on game day. My opinion, Callahan's west coast shit was soft. Riley is a just a soft nice guy, program takes that on. Daily habits become soft, you get it. Frost has made his tenure somewhat of a victim mentality given how much shit has gone wrong. Some his fault, some not. So, players unintentionally take on victim mentality as well and that's where the "here we go again" mentality comes from.
No- We look the part physically. Riley didn't have that and neither did Callahan. That part is not soft. But, other aspects then have to match, which has not happened.

Sipple's comment was even stronger in context. He didn't just say, I think he needs 8 wins. He said:
"It's very simple to me. Reality based conversation. I've been consistent in this. I believe what I'm about to say more than I've ever believed it right now. The number he's got to get to is 8."
He also said that Frost coaching against Indiana would be "tenuous" if they don't look good against Oklahoma. Seems to go against the info on this board that suggested a mid-season firing was very unlikely.
(Also said, "I know what October 1 is all about, that's kind of the season we're in" and said that it's "not unreasonable" to suggest Frost might not be coaching this weekend had we lost to North Dakota.)

Yeah, I was told hours after the NW game he wouldn't be fired in season. I have reached out to see if that has changed.
FWIW, I would be more leaning with Sipple's comments right now suggesting it is possible he is fired in season.
I will say I got confirmation that Turd/Frost aren't on good terms. That is probably the politically correct way to put it.

I am very much prepared for our secondary to look bad against OU and the wheels to fall off very quickly after.

Turd is holding Frost accountable and Frost is being a whiny bitch about it

It's interesting that this is coming out after the win, but I think that the public kind of lost sight of how close that game really was. If Palmer doesn't go up and catch that YOLO on 3rd and long deep in our territory, up only 7 in the 4th quarter, who the hell knows what happens.
I read once about how good organizations view "near misses" as failures and crappy ones view them as successes. (Probably even worse organizations view near miss failures as successes -- cough). Maybe we are finally starting to redefine what this program needs to look like.
