This is indirectly related but I am a big fan of Gary Patterson. What he's done at TCU is incredibly impressive IMO. When the offense went stagnant a few years ago, he found a way to reinvent themselves by bringing in Sonny Cumbie
Earlier in this thread I was told that Duggan was going to his favorite team, Notre Dame, because they'd offered him. At that point, I thought we still had a chance, with this local kid, because he hadn't signed yet. Why are we expected to lose a local kid to TCU in light of the Frost hiring and fantastic new expectations?

While not expected.......but don't be surprised.....perhaps because he is also choosing a school (not just football), where he will spend the next 5 years of his life.
If he chooses TCU , that not a knock on Nebraska, as they offer quite a different college experience on several levels. Btw TCU is academically ranked higher than UNL
Fans should only be a "bit bothered" if he were to choose another state university in the Midwest (like Minn.)
Unsure if Notre Dame is still in the picture, but tuition plus R&B runs 58k/year, so close to $300 k in total. From a purely financial standpoint to value of the scholarship would be more than double compared to UNL.

The chicks man, the chicks.
There's the Kool-Aid I needed!In my glass half full mentality, If Max goes to MN or TCU, it would be a signal of just how good our current QB's really are.
With POB transferring it could be even tougher bringing in a new QB. Our starter could very well be a redshirt freshman.... The big question becomes, how confident are you in winning the job?
I understand the logic, but top teams bring in class QBs every year. Here are Ohio State's QB signees working backwards:
2018-4*
2017-4*
2016-4*
2015-4* NU legacy
I'm guessing Tate Martell didn't walk in thinking "I'll wait my turn". I get the allure of a depth chart lacking talent and/or experience, but I'm confident Frost will get a quality QB every year he wants one.
Take a look at Clemson and Washington the past couple classes. Ridiculous.
