The million dollar question will be answered this year: Why haven't we been successful?
Was it Frost's poor recruiting/player development early on, bad game planning and play calling, or inability to create mental toughness for players to not crumble in close games?
Or was it Adrian's inability to stay healthy, poor decision making, lack of ball security, inability to make the right throws?
My bet- It is probably a combination of the two. However, for the entirety of this era of Nebraska football, those two have been hitched together. The one thing to hang some hope on is that there have been a lot of closes losses, which means we are potentially very close to turning some of those to wins.
Agree completely. So many of the issues and results were intertwined.
Adrian was the classic love/hate relationship. He would do some great things, and then he would do some frustrating things. His blocking was horrible at times, so he would be great and scramble and gain a chunk of yards. Then he would get us in a position to score and he would fumble the ball away. It leads to some pretty good individual numbers, but when you are among the nation's leaders in turnovers, it kills the team. I definitely think it was best for both parties that we parted ways.
