Exactly. Garrett Nelson is not Wistrom. Boo Hoo Frost left. If he’s that upset he can roll our right now.
How Bad Are We?

Garrett Nelson was the only player upset Frost got fired. He was so upset he didn't play today....again.
I just got back to Denver and was at the game today. I can honestly say this was the worst Nebraska football team I’ve ever seen. If we hadn’t hit bottom before, today was it. Having said that, I feel like there are much better days ahead (not hard to do)—I see a silver lining. We have a few good players but both lines are really, really bad (actually the worst entire defense I’ve ever seen in Lincoln and I’m not bashing them, it’s just a fact). By the way, OU fans around us were very gracious before, during, and after the game. Miss that rivalry! I will never give up on the Huskers. GBR!
Really shouldn't do this. Not in my nature. I've been going to ISU games since 1971. Many many NU beat downs. I never ever everthought I could see such terrible NU teams. Hard to figure out given their support.
I went last year for the first time since Bo was coach, I think, and only because I won tickets and figured my daughter should attend a game. At least last year's team was competitive. This looks like a whole different animal this year. No way I would go.
If I were MJ, I’d say any player that isn’t ready to put in the time to do some real work SHOULD LEAVE now. No more pattycake BS type practices. Here’s the door if you want leave and I’ll open it for you.
It could just be the way it happened only 3 games into a season. Players only get a few years to make a difference at this level and don't want to feel like a whole season is wasted. It's hard to blame them too much for feeling that way. At the same time, we need the team to move on and start practicing and playing hard and getting better every week. But yeah, if there's still players clamoring for Frost by the time of our next game, I couldn't care less if they GTFO.
How someone thinks you can win w/o stopping the run in the Big Ten is insane. I don't think he has an acceptable plan and Mickey should ice him during the bye week. Problem is Scott didn't leave much coaching talent, have to go with whatever we have in the analyst dept.
Only chance Coach Joseph may have is if he ices or cans Chins immediately. Not sure you can fire Duval in middle of season but if it's possible, it would be one of the other things he should do now.
I think if he did these two things, regardless of how this shakes out, it improves his chances of being a HEAD coach down the road. It also improves his chances of staying at NE as an associate HEAD if a new guy comes in. It will be seen as a positive.
Seen the problem, had the conviction to take action.
IMHO Nebraska needs to do the following
1. Hire an innovative, intense, no nonsense coach ( Urban Meyer, Dave Aranda, Sean Payton)
2. Recruit nationwide, especially California, Texas, Florida and East Coast. Use NIL.
3. recruit Juco players
4. emphasize strength and conditioning again
5. reboot the walk on program hard
6. players amd coaches held accountable. buy in and work or take the train

Sadly I think we're going to stay mired at the bottom of the toilet bowl for the rest of this season. Now they're talking about firing more coaches. Not that they don't deserve it but how can you expect a turnaround during the season with such chaos going on. I've said it before and I'll say it again. MAJOR mistake by Trev not to make the change at the end of last season. What chaos this year.
Unless he didn’t feel he had the right guy he wanted to change the direction of the program..
Then explain how we played this team 1 year ago, with basically the same talent minus a few players? Were the players who left that really big difference makers to put us at a 5 score loss????
Total rebuild. Go after the best, proven HC in the country.....with character. Hopefully keep one coach on for continuity.....MJ might be that guy as he is all about relationships.
Why are so many fans bashing MJ already and wanting him gone immediately too? I am seeing posts popping up everywhere. Ridiculous.
Because we had older, much more experienced players on D last year that maxed out their physical ability. Our OL has sucked for years. We recruit big, tall guys that can't move laterally. Also, the Sooners look much better this year and are taking on the personality of their head coach.
From what I hear from "N" fans. We must be the worst since we play in a terrible conf. and the worst division in football.
You also played Oklahoma with Spencer Rattler at QB. If Williams had already been broken in, then last year's game wouldn't have been as close as it was.
this is accurate
based on every objective metric, we have been the worst team in the worst division in power 5 for the last 2 years
that puts us well into the 90s or 100s (out of 130 teams) in terms of overall rank
lines up with what we see on the field every week
I'm starting to think this way too. Don't get me wrong, I really like Grant, but the last couple of games have really opened my eyes too. There is something about the way he plays that says he is on another level, possibly even higher level than Grant. And he's just a young guy right now.
Yep! You can bet the ranch on that. But if our OLine could actually block somebody it would help a lot.
