Did the husker staff say that or other staffs?  Or did he read it on the internet?  Article just states his opinion.  

 
I'm sure other staffs were taking shots at Riley last year trying to flip kids too..  including Wisconsin.

Yeah.. original thoughts..

I hope Jimmy Leonhard gets to talk to him again. Maybe bring up that "defense" that coughed up 55 to Memphis. Memphis...

All's fair, right?  :88:

PC has a policy against doing that, so I doubt it - and particularly with Riley, who Chryst adores and credits much of his career to.

I'd be shocked if they don't...  I'm sure prior to the bowl game, Wisconsin was reviewing sack #'s of UCF and Wisconsin with the juco LB that ended up choosing UNL.  In fact, that was our understanding for not signing immediately...

You are probably correct on Wisconsin and Riley.   My bad...

btw.... just a couple days ago, your DC was rumored to be heading to FSU.   That was news.   As you say, your DC can discuss his future and squash a bad rumor.  If he can't... that's on him.

48.2: UCF’s points-per-game average, which barring something historically bizarre in the Alabama-Georgia game — like one team scoring 200 points — will be the nation’s No. 1 scoring offense. No. 2? Memphis, the team UCF beat in the American Athletic Conference title game.
obviously, the Memphis offense was superior to Auburn.  UCF held Auburn to 27, Bama held Auburn to 28.

everything I've heard about Frost is that he probably has the same policy
the kid obviously understands that the Badger DC is a great up and coming coach and meant his statement as a compliment

I'm not sure if Frost has that policy either... he seems focused on UNL and what it means to be a husker (and the opportunity at Nebraska).  What we know or read is Frost is focused on Nebraska and what they can do as a staff. 

that said, I have no idea if he was the one or someone on his staff who planted the seed that whisky's DC might leave.  I also have no evidence or history to say he did either....

It's all speculation on what you want to believe at this point.

I think if it's a legitimate on field thing, it's all fair, and I have zero problem with it.  If Wisconsin uses Frost's UCF defense against him in recruiting a defensive player, I have absolutely zero problem with that.  If a school points out they'be put X number of QBs in the NFL, while another school recruiting the kid has put far fewer, again no problem.  It's the other stuff, Dabo telling kids Saban was going to retire or whatever, that I have no place for.

I'd be shocked if coaches in the BIG12 were not telling KSU recruits Snyder is going to retire soon.   Flat out shocked..

Actually what happened there was UW had to pull back almost immediately because TJ Edwards got a "stay in school" grade the day after UW offered the other kid. So, there was no space for him in Madison, otherwise he'd probably be there now.

It worked out for both schools in this instance. UNL got a potentially very solid player and UW kept an All-American.
