Tad Stryker: Keeping It Simple



Reshuffling his coaching staff was an important move. Finding a few difference-making players, either in the traditional high school recruitment process or through the transfer portal, remains vital. But the most important step Scott Frost can take to fulfill the promise he brought to Lincoln in December 2017 is a ruthless commitment to quenching his innate need to be the smartest guy in the room.

That sounds easy, but obviously is not, as Husker Nation knows from painful experience.

Nebraska’s inability to play physical, fundamentally sound football in a conference that absolutely demands it has exacted a heavy toll: four consecutive losing seasons and a 15-29 record for Frost. It only makes sense that a recommitment to the roots of Husker football greatness is the best way out of this wilderness. Fortunately, this is an easy sell in Lincoln. Frost knows this — or at least he seemed to know it four years ago, when he regularly invoked Tom Osborne, but then again, knowing and doing are two different things.
