I wouldn’t hire Gruden period but a NFL job makes way more sense at least. Ultimately it’s probably better for Tennessee since they can just move on and get an actual college coach like Norvell

Much like with everything else in life, the Euros seem to have more sense on how to do things in a fun atmosphere without sucking the soul out of the event.

"I can promise you that no decision has been made," Frost said.

Convinced it's a done deal now. That's not what you say when you're not taking a job. You say "I'm not a candidate for x" or "I am not and will not be considering any job offers". "No decision has been made" means "we're negotiation terms".

I'll believe it when I see it.

I don't think you're gonna find a better coach that fits Nebraska that well on the market this year; I think the outside the box option :haw: of Ken Niumatalolo would be great, but I don't see that in the cards--just not something fans would go for, and the recruiting questions would be overwhelming (if there's one thing Riley's done well, it's recruit).

But Scott Frost would be a big get, easily the biggest name on the market and would show that Nebraska is willing and able to play with the big boys still.

Florida AD Scott Stricklin wants to hire Scott Frost (per same SB Nation report); however they add that “Florida is worried about Frost’s ability to build out a staff of SEC recruiters”. They add Florida would want Frost to retain Randy Shannon and perhaps other defensive staff members.

jesus christ you can't have it both ways, Florida. Either let a coach bring in his own guys or keep the one you've got.

Nebraska is also considering coaches who run the triple-option, flexbone offense, specifically Navy’s Ken Niumatalolo. Sources indicate that if Nebraska approached Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson, he would recommend Niumatalolo or Army’s Jeff Monken, both his former assistants.

Encouraging a new coach to consider doing this is fine, the new coach deciding to do this is fine. Mandating that the new coach has to keep guys is not fine.

Kelly would make sense at UCLA but yeah I can’t see them outbidding Florida if Florida really wants him. It’d also probably be a good spot for Frost but can’t imagine them beating out Nebraska for him. That’s an interesting job, there aren’t really a ton of obvious west coast candidates that I can think of because most of the good coaches in the most obvious feeder conference (the MWC) are all pretty old
