🏈 Scott Frost has been fired as head coach of Nebraska.

Not surprised

They were 3 weeks from saving $7.5 million. That tells you how badly they wanted him gone.

How long until he shows up in Tuscaloosa?

Later rather than sooner

Opening line on OU-Nebraska? OU-3 1/2. SMH.

Edit: that opening line was by Fanduel on May 10. VI Consensus is at -14

My sources say that Auburn is putting together a financial package to make Frost the next coach on the plains.

Would not be surprised. Hell, I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to switch during the season.

No surprise at all. Actually, I thought he would be gone last season after 3-9 campaign, but firing 4 guys from his staff and taking a cut in pay and a reduced buyout got him 3 more games.

I know Lincoln is basically the ass end of nowhere for a bunch of 18 year olds but damn….I thought they’d be able to recruit a bit better with him there.

And to fire a home town legend...better make a great hire....very little rope

Gets a $15M buyout.

Should have waited a few weeks or until later in the season. Nebraska is a dumpster fire.

But what’s an additional 7.5 million between friends?

I really suspect boosters walked in and said fire him now or we will stop donations. Maybe they even said they would pay the difference if they did it now. No way it makes financial sense to do it now over 3 weeks from now. You aren't even getting a head start of hiring a new coach really.

Cole and GMac were talking about the Nebraska gif and Cole had some stats that had the state of Nebraska with 1 top 100 player and some of the border states with them all together had a total of 5 top high school players.

I have not liked the guy since he pulled off the fake national championship-thing at UCF. Very Barnish.

I'm guessing it wasn't going to get even better at the end of the month! BOB could be hired away well some of us thinking this right now!
