Scott Frost Says He Doesn't Want Players Who Wear Hoodies In The Cold, As He Wears A Hoodie Indoors
It seemed as if everybody was picking Nebraska as their "sleeper team" of the 2019 season. There was speculation that Adrian Martinez would be a top-tier Heisman candidate by the end of the season. Nebraska would roll in the Big Ten West. Look at their schedule! It's so easy!
Spoiler alert: that hasn't happened.
Nebraska is 4-4 after a loss to Indiana on Saturday and 2-3 in the Big Ten. Scott Frost's job is certainly not in question, but the idea that he was going to bring Nebraska back to their 90s glory is in question. His response? FULL BOOMER MODE ENGAGED:
SOURCE-"I told them in the locker room 'just OK' never exists in a locker room that I was in when I was at Nebraska because you were expected to live up to a standard," Frost said. "Our guys are doing the right things, which is a big improvement from last year. But I want guys that live and die for it and want to be great and are tough. I don’t want guys that go out in Minnesota with hoodies on and everything for warm ups.
"That just says to me 'just OK' is enough, I’m a little cold so I’m going to come out here in that. You got ridiculed and beat up when I was playing if you did that. We’ve got to keep getting tougher, we’ve got to keep getting more talent in here and we’ve got to keep working and we’re 'just OK' right now. I’m not going to be happy with 'just OK'."
Football coaches continue to fetishize the weirdest shit. It always comes when their teams are losing too. It's never their fault. It's the millenials faults for being weak. I'm still waiting for a reporter to ask a coach why other teams can with millennials, but they can't. Weird how that works, huh?
The most ironic part of this whole backwards statement? Scott Frost is literally wearing a hoodie while saying it's not okay to wear a hoodie.
