Message: [QUOTE="Crusty, post: 1566117, member: 2265"] Frost represents a somewhat higher risk than some of the others with HC experience, but probably has a higher upside as well. Since my first priority is offense the choice of Frost is easy to support. His previous playing experience and three years as OC in the PAC 12 gives him a good foundation for game management skills as the big guy. Don't think he will panic and will play chess rather than checkers. I bet he will demonstrate good leadership skills as most successful QBs seem to have it. The first indication of whether or not he does will be who joins his staff. For some time going forward, QB recruits will be impressed that he coached Marcus Mariota. I don't think he will have problems in any kid's living room. I think this is a big hire and if Coyle pulls this off I will be duly impressed. Only time will tell how successful he will be, but this could represent a sea change for the program. [/QUOTE]
