An, Nebraska DID hire Scott Frost to lead their college football team back to victory.
It occurs to me, variants of this strategy have been tried before, (Solich and Pellini) and neither time did it 'work'. (and it is probably clear neither time was sufficient time allowed to see if it 'worked')
Anyhow, Scott is returning, expectations are UNBELIEVABLY high. I already feel sorry for him, it's pretty clear (to me at least) he will be allowed the 2018 football season to get his footing, and then in the 2019 season, Scott only has one course of action:
to get Nebraska in the Top 5 of the rankings and a major (Orange, Rose, Sugar, Fiesta) Bowl Game.
Period.
Failing that, he will be fired in his third or forth season (unless he's showing substantial progress every year). And Nebraska football will still
SUCK.

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
