Scott Frost deserves a raise..........

[NCDucks09]

I'm still impressed with how he almost singlehandedly got LGB from the field into the locker room after the Boise St. game. If you watch the tape, Frost was the one doing most of the restraining.

Frost is a beast, impressive to hold back one of the strongest backs in the NFL.

Not that it matters...

Frost was hired at the end of January '09. Chip was promoted to HC in March '09.

This doesn't mean that Chip didn't have a very large say in who was added to the offensive staff. It's entirely possible that Chip requested him being hired. It's all conjecture and isn't relevant to the convo.

Frost has done a great job. He will get an opportunity for an advancement either here or somewhere else.

If/when he leaves at some future date (hopefully long into the future), I will wish him well and hope we can get a top notch replacement.

MB hired CK..so MB should get ALOT of credit regardless

I know MB hired frost because I remember watching the MB show and reading the paper quoting him talking about being excited about hiring Scott Frost and how he will fit really well into our program. I also remember him talking about it during the recruiting dinner in February of '09.

It's funny how people just refer and associate credit for work to whoever is in the current leadership position.

Frost was hired in January '09, CK was promoted to head coach a few months later. So it was probably a decision made by both MB and CK. Not that it really matters.

Correct.

Phlugard and Gray were not re-hired by MB by CKs request. Both MB and CK interviewed and agreed on Frost and Azz. At the time they were hired MB had not decided when he would step down so they had to hire coaches both MB and CK were comfortable with.

If you attend practices you also see Frost's value. He will line up as the cornerback against receivers and coach on the fly as they run the route. On ocassions I've seen him jam receivers at the line. He's big, fit, and still has some speed left in his legs.

The challenge will be to keep him at Oregon as he continues to exhibit his recruiting and coaching skills.

He's definitely someone that will be in demand soon. The only way I think Oregon keeps him is to promote him (where or what to?) or he stays because he genuinely likes the area, school, and/or football program.
