I went to the Michigan v Nebraska game on 2018. I have never seen a more disorganized or more poorly coached team than Nebraska.
That was early in Frost's Nebraska tenure when everything was in transitional chaos. I had an opposite experience less than 2 months ago. I attended Nebraska at Purdue. The Cornhuskers narrowly lost that game but they had athletes all over the field. Players were upbeat on the sideline. It was obvious the program was on the upswing. I spoke to some Nebraska fans during tailgating and also seated nearby during the game. All of them indicated the same thing, that Frost remains popular and it's a period of patience since they can see the positive indications, like more aggressive recruiting and also an offense that resembles what they expected.
Right now Frost is trying to run an offense similar to what Cristobal is using at Oregon -- with parallel reliance pivoting to downfield daggers -- but Frost doesn't have the offensive line nor an accurate quarterback. Martinez missed an easy touchdown pass to the tight end in that Purdue game that would have put the game essentially out of reach with a 17 point margin. It was typical of his season. He dropped below 60% completions.
Nebraska recruiting was expected to be high 30s. Instead they plucked several 4 star guys late and are now basically in 20 range. Next season supposedly will be even better, at least according to one of those fans I spoke to in West Lafayette. He said Nebraska fans who used to make road trips like that Purdue game are not coming right now, but fairly soon they will be once Frost reestablishes the program.
From what I saw, Nebraska has more of a deficit among linemen than anything else.
Anyway, this Francois interview meant nothing because the questioning was awful. I like broad scope generalities while evaluating teams but in interviews you need a blend of specifics and generalities. These guys asked the generalities first then weren't bright or competent enough to follow up with the specifics. What was different about Nebraska coaches than Miami coaches during the recruiting process? What was different about your Nebraska official visit on campus than the Miami visit on campus? Pin them down a little bit. Instead they allowed Francois to ramble and essentially say nothing.
