The decision to hire Frost should come from the power of Big Red fans. If Scott is willing to come home... it is the A.D.'s job to not mess this up. Firing Riley was an easy decision. Hiring Frost is a No-Brainer!!

I'd like a coach that can inspire, teach and motivate. The Husker teams of the last 10 years or so seem to lack any enthusiasm or will to win. Pelini was an embarrassing maniac on the sideline and Riley had zero emotion or fire. Something in the middle would be nice.

Scott Frost is the coach Nebraska needs to get the football program back on its feet again. They need to give him time to implement his style of offense and to get the defense back to being blackshirts.

He is a hometown coach who remembers and lives the actions of a prior legendary husker football coach. Coach Frost will be given as much time as he needs to fill his roster and bring back the tradition on both sides of the ball.

I think over time it's proven that this position needs to have a leader that understands work ethic and our history - no better way to get that done than with not only a previously player but one from a team that brought us our last national championship and the commitment it takes to get there.

This is the best coaching fit in the last 20 years. We can't afford another 20 years of the coaching carousel and failed coaching and offensive scheme experiments. Bring Frost back, resurrect a true bone-crushing Black-Shirt defense and smash-mouth run-pass-option offense like the old days. GBR!

Besides the Husker ties he seems to be the best coach available when it comes to fit, culture, and brining the fan base together. There will always be some people not happy about it and no guarantees he can do what needs to be done but overall would make a great hire.

Scott is a good coach, but people forget he had a slow start when he first came to Nebraska. At UCF he inherited those players, he really doesn't have a complete resume. I would prefer a Les Miles who could bring back the Black Shirts. Scott will be around for years.

Each game we are getting better and our Defense is just as strong as they were the first game. It is only a matter of time for the Offense to open up and showcase all the young talent on the team. Not to mention every team left has struggles with stopping offenses. Our D will shut down their runs.

I think they'd be able to get to something like 7-5 if they still had some offensive weapons. But the lack of receivers and backs is going to make it difficult. If they do get to a bowl, it will be due to the defense.
