It's pretty clear that Scott Frost wants very much to succeed at UNL.

It's pretty clear that the Nebraska fans want Scott Frost to succeed.

I strongly imagine that the Nebraska administration wants Scott Frost to succeed.

So all he's got to do is go out and succeed.  Easy as pie!

more support and more patience than the past coaches since Osborne

Yep.  That's what I figured.

There have been some goofy hires in Lincoln since Fearless Frank was fired.  The PTBs have to give this one maximum support and maximum time to see it succeed.

Commenting on a variety of topics, Scott Frost says JD Spielman’s departure was “pretty mutual” and “best for everyone.”

What is the minimum Frost could do and survive five years?

8-5 is sufficient, or not?  Let's say 8-5, 9-4, 8-5, 10-3, 8-5 .... sufficient?

he has a 7 year deal

as long as he's going bowling with a winning record he will last 5-7 years

9 wins is sufficient for me and might be for 10 seasons for the masses and administration

a Big Ten West title and a trip to the CCG will be required after that

I think they may have realized their mistake

the mistake was the AD that fired a coach that was winning 9 and 10

A post from black shoe diaries today on the PSU wide receivers.

The quick summary?

One returning player, Jahan Dotson is probably #1.
Cam Sullivan-Brown, a possession receiver that played fairly well before getting injured early in the season is probably #2.

BSD *hopes* that one of the redshirt freshman, incoming freshman can step in and play ad #3.

I believe that Daniel George will probably be the #2 or #3 receiver.  He played a fair amount in the bowl game.

This team reminds me a lot of the 2004 Penn State team that only won 4 games.  The lack of wide receiver talent killed them.  Securing 3 phenom freshman wide receivers in 2005 propelled them to the #3 ranking at season's end.

The flow of that is always interesting. One coach's weakness sets the stage for the next. 

Jeff Brohm's record would be a disappointment after Tiller and maybe even Hope. After Hazel, he's probably got at least two more years unless they go like 3-9 next year.

Yeah, and we all know that comes down to recruiting.

Hope had Tiller's recruiting legacy and even though I don't think he was a great coach, he was near .500 each year with the one bad year being 2010 when we were completely destroyed by industry and onto our 4th-string QB (later played LB) at one point. But during his tenure, recruiting started to lag. 

Then Hazell came in and recruiting went completely in the tank. Bottom of the B1G every year. I used to say "MAC-level" recruiting but upon review there was only one year that a single MAC team out-recruited Purdue, which underscores the giant chasm between P5 and G5. But I mean quite literally they were consistently the bottom of the B1G.

As fans, we all know that Brohm is climbing out of a horrific hole. Most fans believe that if Brohm had Tiller's talent, he'd be putting out Tiller-level results or better.
