Scott is stating the facts............the question was asked and answered. Were names mentioned? No. He said he told the team the same things.......the problems are obvious when you watch them play

Frost/staff have their work cut out with a team essentially inherited from the Mike Riley debacle. Until their own recruits are the majority, the whip is going to need to be cracked, repeatedly!

Back in the day, this wouldn't even be a topic if players were called out for toughness. But in today's world everyone is overly sensitive - drives me nuts. Football isn't for softies - toughen up

The players need a team meeting without the coaches. They (players) need to start calling out their teamates as a whole and decide to step up or keep losing. Basically a gut check and heart!

That is exactly who he is, like it or not he is the coach and sometimes you have to say the hard thing . That's life, so good for him to teach these young men that

Some of the fan base wants to blame the coaching staff and already wants Frosts head, He did the right thing making it public to give a taste of what he is saying to the players. It is on players now

Maybe he has been doing it in private, and it has been like talking to a fence post. Maybe this is his only option. We don't have enough information here to know for sure..

They have been playing like a bunch of California fruitcakes for the past 15 years+ yes they need to toughen up and play with some heart, guts, and desire. Nebraska hasnt played with any of that!!!!

I think that they definitely need to toughen up and i believe that's part of it. These players are used to losing and seemed more interested in getting out of the cold more than winning the game.

That Might Be The Reason They Are Not Playing Well But They Should Take It Like A Man And Play Better

Clearly it didn't resonate with the team, on the field at least. No doubt about it, the statement did not change behaviors in a good way. I would have done the same, but it was a miss....

Not Sure. Has "No fear of failure" morphed into "I don't care?"

Look in the mirror Frost, and then forget about the loyalty factor and get tough with assistants. That last touchdown Purdue scored was ridiculous. DC can't seem to make adjustments. Call them out.

There could be other ways to go about it. Kids are different today. Not softer or bad attitudes, just different. Frost played with some really tough hombres, the likes of which we may never see again.

its something you maybe do in front of the team but not in public. better to be putting in 2nd and 3rd stringers who display the heart, if not the technique, to Win

Feature back is important to have but DEPTH is also CRITICAL. If don't have a feature back then either then depth chart is flooded with talent. But in the Big Ten you better have a GREAT 2nd and 3rd string to make it through the season. With EJ it helped he was so quick he didn't take huge hits

Nebraska was always most stable when we had a feature back that can actually "carry" the team with his legs.

Nebraska in the past was successful with one top back. We've fallen on hard times because we haven't developed or recruited a great back. But the others need to be developed so we have a pipeline of backs like we use to have.

Roger Craig & Tom Rathman ring a bell ? Not only a dynamic duo playing for NU, but also for the 49ers !! YES we want multiple RB’s to rotate in & out to keep their legs fresh!! GBR 🎈

Look at the success in the playoff, the teams have 2-3 capable RB's they use to keep them healthy and offer the D different looks. Johnson was unique, most backs can't take that many snaps a season and stay healthy and sharp.

Every good team, including the NFL, will rotate backs on a regular basis. This last year Nebraska should have used a 2nd running back more often - NEB is lucked out EJ stayed healthy.
