Looking over the UCF staff bios, didn't realize two former Iowa players (Chinander & Mossbrucker) as well as former Iowa assistant coach (Verducci) were on staff. Wonder if all will come back to the Big Ten with Frosty?

Also, how long is Husker Nation is thinking a potential turn-around will take? It's no secret and I said this when you joined the Big 10 but a solid OL/DL is the key to success here, especially in November and it just hasn't been there, when was your last first team all conf O lineman? Roster turnover will be interesting and then you factor in December signing period and who will be QB next fall so stayed tuned I guess.

I thought Verduzco coached at Northern Iowa with Frost, not Iowa?

I wonder if Chinander knows Diaco? I believe Diaco was a GA at Iowa around the time Chinander played.

Six wins and a bowl 2018.
Beat Colorado twice in the next two years.
A winning conference record in 2019 and going forward.
Contend for the West title beginning in 2020.
Beat the shite out of P.J. Fleck.

A good coach can turn around any program in 2 years imo. It's evident all over CFB these days. My guess is Frost will beat everyone he should next year, and maybe someone he shouldn't. Then year 2 will be more of the same except maybe 2 teams he shouldn't. If he can do that, we'll be in the 8-10 win range by year 2.

I beg to differ. Not sure anybody, Saban included, could turn around the Kansas program in two-years.

Hard to say how many might come over with him..... No shortage of rumors on that front.

What is a turn around? I'll say a turn around is winning the West and being a top 25 team. I don't see that happening in the next 3 seasons.

Last team with a great O-Line was likely 99-01 time frame.......been a long time.

This program has a losing culture. It's going to take awhile to change that.

Depends how bare is the cupboard, and whether the current guys fir the new offensive scheme. Fortunately for you guys, Riley did some decent recruiting, right?

7-8 wins next year for me. Nebraska isnt a 4 win team talent wise. NIU, NW, & Minnesota. Thats 3 teams right there that Nebraska should have beat.
