I keep reading that boosters stepped in to protect Frost from being fired last year. Who are these boosters, and more importantly, why do they not see the obvious that all the rest of the fanbase sees? A good coach doesn't produce a team that dwells at he bottom of the division every year.
Boosters Protecting Frost
- Thread starter SLOHusker
- Start date
They are heavily influenced by Matt Davison who provides them with unprecedented access to the program. If Frost goes away - Davison is out. He is doing everything he can to keep his job including using scare tactics about what might happen to booster access if Frost is fired
Matt Davison is more invested in Frost keeping his job than Nebraska winning as has been much of the fanbase the last 2 years with the “5 year rebuild” propaganda

as a booster, i can tell you, most boosters are just regular fans who want the program to succeed
We are so rotten from the inside out. Why would anyone want "booster access" to this miserable program? How could there be anything more scary than what is happening right now?
I know we are all Husker fans but could anyone in good conscious encourage a player like Malachi Coleman to commit here right now?
If I were going to be a booster, (fat chance), I'd be supporting someone who hasn't been a losing coach in 6 of his 7 years as Head Coach.
given how the last 20 years of NU football have gone, I might already be there and I dragged all you shmucks down with me!
If they're serious, then they're thin skin bitches. The stuff said on here isn't even relatively as brutal as NFL criticism. If that **** bothers them, either turn off the internet or don't put themselves into a world that will spotlight them and open them up for criticism. Jesus that's so soft
Maybe that’s true but it would seem to me that the boosters would know their money has more power than Davison
The boosters realize that if Frost gets fired especially after 1 game, nobody but nobody of substance would ever want to take the job.
Mr. Coleman probably had a few drinks and got worked-up on some chat-boards. If he wants to base his decision on that...that's his problem.
I don’t think any parent wants to see their child go play for a perennial loser. Would you?
Take a deep breath, and think of waves gently washing up on a secluded beach. Phew!
When Moos hired Frost he committed himself to, “combining the old with the new”.Everyone knew he meant mixing Nebraska’s old ground game with his air raid style offense. He completely abandoned that promise his second year as all the media , “an offensive genius who’ll turn this program around” . Osborne new this offense could succeed in the BIG, at least four other teams here have copied that format, but Scott is an Offensive Genius. If Trev Alberts doesn’t understand that Frost can’t succeed because he’s not being honest with himself and this team, then Nebraska
will never rebuild because this failed experiment will continue to recruit the wrong players.

I think anybody of substance would realize Frost got fired because of another Season opening loss in year 5 preceded by 4 losing seasons.
A few of things to keep in mind…
1) No other Power 5 program would retain a coach with this kind of record. A lot of patience has been shown.
2) if a prospective coach doesn’t think they can do better than Frost’s record here, do we really want that coach?
3) Nothing is likely to happen until October 2nd. Trev is not a knee-jerk reaction AD and will save the University $7.5 million by waiting if something is to be done.
Scott was the designated Messiah for Husker Football. If indeed that plan failed it appears Knebbers options have about dried up.
Where do you go after the Messiah has failed?
It is true that if Frost (the home grown kid and last NU National Championship QB) was successful, it would have been the perfect story. That’s not how it is probably going to turn out.Scott was the designated Messiah for Husker Football. If indeed that plan failed it appears Knebbers options have about dried up.
Where do you go after the Messiah has failed?
When that happens, it is time for a new chapter. Life goes on.
Well, that makes sense - we have to let Frost go 3-9 every year for the next 20 years to avoid having to settle for a guy who might only go 7-5.
Where are you reading this? The boosters of substance I know (granted, just a few) are fed up with the state of the program and the ugly rumors regarding the head coach. As someone else said, they just want to see a competent hard-nosed program that produces some wins. Seriously, where are you reading this?
LOL the notion you cant fire the second worst (possibly the worst) coach in program history for fear of not being able to get someone better. The guy loses 2 games for every 1 he wins.
Scott Frost finished his first season 4–8, the worst single season record of any Nebraska head football coach in more than fifty years. In his first four seasons as Nebraska's head coach, Frost's teams never played in a bowl game and failed to compete in the West Division of the Big Ten, never rising higher than fifth.
Me a random message board poster would only lose 2 or 3 more games a year. I also could not make a bowl game, I also could not challenge in the West division but I would come a hell of a lot cheaper.

Well, him and Frost knew about Mo Washingtons case before he even got to campus. Then they had their drinking buddy lie about it, and our pillow soft media just let them get away with it. Then they threw the kid out when he was no longer useful. That’s a huge reason i hope the day is coming soon that they are never allowed near the program again. The Frosturbators think he’s like Osborne, when in reality he’s about as completely opposite as you can imagine.
Last year at USC John Helton was fired 2 game of the season on September 13 after losing to Stanford at home..
Obviously, there are two sets of boosters. There are the 'mainstream' boosters that operate out in the open. Then there are the 'deep state' boosters that are really pulling all of the strings. From somewhere in South America, I think.
On this board. And more than once. I understand that Osborne was likely one of those that discouraged his firing, but it seems likely there are others.
You keep bring up the same old snide, pretty sure we know what has happened the fast 4/5 years
