It needed to be done. Changes like this often is the kick teams need to unite around

Scott threw a pass with 4 minutes to go in the game when the offense was running the ball on a warn down and very tired defense. It got us to the one yard line too soon in the game. We could have drained the clock and ran the ball. Game management was the main reason we kept losing close games.

If anyone other than TA had been hired as the AD, Frost wouldn't even have been here for the first 3 games. TA did the right thing at that time imo, under the circumstances. He again has done the right thing under these new circumstances. I like MJ a lot, great recruiter and loves NU....GBR!!!!

The players didn't need 3 more weeks of uncertainty, especially when it was inevitable at this point.

Mickey Joseph is fully engaged, and will ignite this team! I fully expect to see this entire team "molt" their "Frostiness", and transform into a real Husker squad again. It won't happen overnight, but it will happen soon. Go Big Red!

Mickey will bring more positive energy on gameday; and more detail and accountability in practices.

Greatly improved, Frost was unfortunately more of a disease that was slowly killing the team because of a losing culture, lack of energy and excitement and the same old talk in the press conferences because of the same ole issues.

Ever been in a relationship you needed to end because it was just time....except it was past time? You didn't hate this person, still cared for them, but you knew you had to end it sooner or later, kept putting it off.....and when you finally did, it was like you were flying through the air...

This isn't a dating relationship, it's a coach teaching/mentoring young kids. kids that make mistakes daily.

Feels like a weight was lifted. Sure was pulling for Frost.Hope DONU finds a way to keep HCMJ and Beckton around.

We can now move on now that Frost is gone. There is no more noise about it. The players can now focus on playing a game. A new voice means new rejuvenation!

Defense is woeful. Only hope for Nebr victory is a scoring feast by both sides...last team possession will win.

The atmosphere around the program was "dead man walking". That sucks the motivation. This will reignite drive.

Somebody has to jolt the defense to play better. Perhaps it's a hopeless cause in the moment. We'll find out on Saturday.

Defensive Coordinator shoulda been fired b4 Frost, defense is a complete embarrassment and OU will hang 60 on these guys and these transfers aren’t very impressive. They should be stripped of there blackshirts, wearing a blackshirt used to be an honor, now it’s like every kid gets a trophy, pathetic

Creates short term instability and uncertainty within the ranks. Undermines confidence in players and staff to beat a tough opponent days away.

The Problem is the defense. Our offense has proving ability to score, our special teams has improved, however our defense continues to be horrific. The wrong man was fired. Chins needs to go

I think without getting cute and simplifying we were able to see the talent that was recruited on the line shine against Wisconsin. There were holes open nearly all night for our backs. Dylan was not sacked at all.

Tonite I saw hints of the '95 Huskers. We have a lot of work to do but I think with Rhule and Holgerson, I think within the next 2-3 seasons, we will be on the ranking polls and pushing for the Big 10 Legends title and then? Who knows? Maybe a National title is in the future??

I think a good 'running' OC like Army's OC could have an awesome offense with this exact personnel. And the Army's OC only makes $190K.

Glad to see an acknowledgement that the O wasn't working. This shows some urgency about winning which I appreciate.

Seems pretty obvious that when something is not working very well and you don’t know how to fix it you bring in outside experts for advise. Common practice.

Holgerson has enough experience that he should be able to watch some film and the players in practice and call plays that play to their strengths. I'm betting he is also smart enough to stick with what's working until the other team stops it, and to develop some offensive rhythm.

Anything is better than Satterfield. But I don't know why we didn't go after the US Army's OC who only makes $190k and absolutely knows how to run the ball.

Because Army's OC can call the triple option and run the ball, but he probably doesn't know how to call for a pro-style quarterback. Plus it is very unlikely that Army's OC is going to jump ship right now the way their season is going. Maybe gets a look after the season if Holgerson doesn't stay.

Installing a whole new offense would be very difficult. You might be able to refine a small portion but learning the timing and terminology would be difficult.

The habits of almost 2 years don't change overnight. That being said, A new , more forceful, high expectation coach, might be able to snap them awake and Go
