Who said the players quit? The kids on the defensive side of the ball are playing hard for their coaches. And playing hard for each other. The defense has great player leadership this year. Scott Frost isn't moving the needle for the defensive players.

Where Frost gets an "F" is team mental focus and mental toughness. That's something only the head coach can determine.
You said we lose because the other teams play harder. That’s false. It implies our team quits. Not true. Our guys fight like hell. They just can’t finish. It’s a completely different problem.

That doesn't imply quitting. I played on a losing team in college one year that cared if we won or lost, but not as much as the other team. We gave an effort. But it's easy to make it look to the coaches like you're playing hard (cause everyone wants to play). But we weren't doing the painstaking little things that take extra energy and we had guys giving up early on plays.

So how do you measure effort? One way is if most people believe that you are playing harder than your opponent. After all, if your opponent is out working you, do you really need to be congratulated on how hard you played?

This Husker team had individuals who played very hard. The defense as a unit played hard. And the team didn't "quit". But they would have won more than one game this year if they played as hard as some are implying.

Couldn’t agree more. Man, I hate Frost. Fake arrogant coach that does nothing but grease his own players, hide from his failures and hit repeat every game. I wish Lawrence would have killed him that night. Would have saved us four years of absolute misery.
I mean yeah I'm frustrated and wish the ahole was fired. But this seems a bit dramatic and insane

Exactly what I was going for
Damn good thing Martinez wasn't playing the other day otherwise Nebraska would have given up a safety by Smothers to help Iowa win.........oh wait, lol.

Again dude, thanks for the laugh in the game thread the other day. You're now infamous.

Stop bashing Frost. Recruits see this and will shy away. Please stop. We need support. The kids are hurting but ready to move on to next year.
I guess there is such thing as generational differences if what you are saying is true.

When people talked **** about me, I used that as motivation for myself and my team and played with a chip on my shoulder. Not once did I think about going to some little corner to curl up and suck my thumb. What a bunch of nonsense!

So you seem to think recruits watching the product on the field the last few years doesn’t have any impact? Hmmm….
