Transferring to Purdue would make more sense then going home to Kentucky who has a much worse offense than either Purdue or Nebraska..

I got really worried once Frost decided to bring his whole Sun Belt staff with him instead of behaving like a big boy program.
Why Purdue? He was used perfectly and ran all over them in the head to head game. They had a worse season than us, even with Moore.
Thanks. I don’t see BC as a Frost homer, but that is interesting for sure. Those are really odd choices, but it is what it is, I guess.
Another crack in the program’s foundation.
Would love to be a fly on the wall if there is an “exit interview” why he is leaving.

No clue other than he's friends with Rondale Moore, they train together and it is close to home. But I thought he was leaving, maybe he thinks he can take his place, still for Fong to write an article about this and not just a prediction. Not good.....
Agreed. The idea of this rebuild is to build depth. NU needs that more than winning. I just don't see much progress on the field. Change the play calling or change the personnel. Does anyone see Frost doing that?
Doesn't make sense to me. Kentucky does not even try to pass the football. He would basically be used like he was last year with the Skers at best... If he were going to Oklahoma or somewhere with a proven returning QB- I guess I could see that.... But you would think he would learn from J.D. and not make a move unless the grass was definitely greener...
Yep, not good at all. I am having a hard time wrapping my mind around this. He seemed all in. Heck just a couple weeks ago he was dressing Austin Allen like a Christmas tree.
They have shown they can showcase a guy, have to be honest I've been more disappointed about our offense than our record under Frost...
Me too.totally agree with you... Where not getting what we thought we were paying for when he excepted the job 3 years ago..
To be fair all of Riley’s receivers he recruited didn’t amount to anything. But yeah this isn’t good.
I subscribe to 247 but they purged everyone the least bit critical of Frost from posting. I can still read everything.
Purdue played 6 games this season. 6.
Nebraska played 8 games this season. And chose to not play the 9th.
Kentucky wasn't worth a **** but played 11 games ths season. Their players got to showcase what they have 11 times. Not 8. Not 6.
Showing up for -- and winning-- a bowl game, after going 4-6 in the regular season tells you something about the players and staff in that program. When asked "do you want to play football or not play football" they chose "play football". Maybe WR wants to go somewhere like that.
Let's have the full story. You paid and they won't allow you to post? How critical are you? Just curious. If I wasn't hypercritical I'd be demanding my money back.
A guy like Brandin Cooks (I know Mike Riley) would be a template for an NFL career. 5’10” 190 Belitnikoff award, 4.3 at the combine. If you don’t have legit deep speed you’ll be taking hits over the middle in the short passing game. These years will put that on tape.
Definitely less critical than I'm here. If you read the posts on 247 there are very few people allowed to say anything critical.
That dork from the Kentucky board who's been saying this for a while looks a little less stupid today.
These are facts about the 2 programs right now since 2016:
Kentucky is 37-26
Nebraska is 25-32
Kentucky has won 3 bowl games in last 3 years with wins over Penn St (Citrus), Va Tech (Belk), and NC St (Gator).
Nebraksa has only played in one bowl and lost.
Kentucky has had 8 players drafted
Nebraksa has had 8 players drafted
Again, he can go home, play in the best conference in the country, and play for a better program while surroundedby friends and family. You guys are in denial.
They had the luxury of going to a bowl game on January 2nd..
If Nebraska had that option playing a ACC team they would have been playing on that date instead of some bowl game day after Christmas..
I’d say it’s a mix of the two. There is something off with the offensive unit and I’ve said it plenty of times. That receiver room seems dysfunctional as well.
All this program generates anymore is bad news. If Wandale leaves it is a sign that Frost is not capable of keeping top flight players around. There is a reason Kade Warner was a starter in year three
Not that I’d ever turn my back on this program, but for f’s sake it’s becoming increasingly more difficult to get excited about what we’ve become or where we’re going.
There really are no excuses for us being the program we are today.

This is as much an indictment of the culture, particularly on the offensive side of the ball, as it is the complete ineptitude of the offensive coaching staff. There are some serious issues in that locker room and they start with the coaching staff.
What exactly do you think we are in denial of? We know how bad Nebraska has been, that is not breaking news. And you are so focused on our poor record that is all you can see. The kid had OSU and Alabama offers out of HS, it obviously isn’t only about winning games. If he just wanted to win there are a lot of better options than Kentucky and some can even move the football.
Both of these dudes loved Nebraska football and would have much rather ended their careers here. Sometimes you have to get out of a bad situation.
Wont be surprised. There is no vision for this offense, no quarterback who throw a decent pass, and he is not a player to run between the tackles. Frost is convinced he is a one man offensive weapon when in fact he is a great weapon who accents a great running offense. This could help Frost pull his head out of his hind part or help move him along...
