I did not because Sam didn’t provide the whole quote in the tweet, I wasn’t available to watch it live, the apathy imparted from 5 straight losing seasons has eroded my desire to hunt down video clips to watch online, and I don’t live in Nebraska where I might get the info by happenstance anyway.
Definitely had high hopes for Frost but he might not be the leader I thought he would be. Hope the team doesn't take on this mentality, it'll only divide the locker room.
You cared enough to ignorantly comment about it.
Are you sure "most" aren't good speakers? I would bet the majority get paid very well to speak at events and do it well.
Uh, yeah. I'm beyond beyond done with this ****. Vote of zero confidence with this guy at the helm. I just want it over with so we can get something going, at least potentially. I've seen plenty. If Im wrong and we look damn good this year, i will have some hope, but not holding my breath.
I was thinking the same thing, lots of head coaches are good speaker, some very good.
Most will have the art of ********, but it all comes down to winning. Frost is in a lose-lose situation until the guy wins. If he talks to much and says anything rosy, we will criticize him for being that way because he hasn't won games. If he is bland and quick, we will criticize him for not painting some rosy picture. Dude just needs to win games as I don't give a **** what he says until then. I said it in another thread. I really like that this year has been super quiet with talking. We've been great at talking and off-season chatter, rah-rah stuff.
I can tell you with 100% certainty that this isn't true. Anyone who believes that definitely has learning disabilities.
You should go back and look now. I was right about that and it's been taken care of. Good job by someone in the athletic dept. (prolly not Frost)
Dr. Tom was masterful at underselling his team. He knew they were good. They knew they were good. They didn't need to hear it in the press. They'd come out and slaughter their opponent and that was all the validation needed.
Yeah…no. West Coast is PST. MST is Colorado, Utah and a few others. No MST teams have ever been mentioned.
I guess you have no clue how much speaking a coach does in a year. Camps, recruiting, dinners, awards, team meetings, boosters, coaching clinics, fund raising charity events, it goes on and on.
I do actually know how much speaking coaches do, so good try, but the message to the public is a lot of times a very different conversation to what hits the players. I do agree that great coaches are great communicators, but I've been to a lot of banquets with coaches and there are plenty that really suck as public speakers, but if you listen to what they are speaking about with players they are fantastic. Hell, Tom O. to me is not that great of a public speaker. Super dry, terrible pace, etc. but is one of the great communicators there was in CFB. To me it's two different things. Public speaking and communicating.
Screw the us against the world mentality. I sure hope that Frost hasn't given up.
Jeepers I thought you meant western half of the United States. I had an inability to comprehend moment there!
The question wasn't about message it was about public speaking. Well duh, who doesn't expect the coach to say things differently off camera or with a reporter.
