-Scott Frost's start in Nebraska has been rough to say the least. He's been on almost every "hot seat" list for 2020.
-Frost is the only coach in Nebraska in decades to have a losing record (9-15) through 2 seasons.
-The offense Walters lead finished 7th in the Big Ten.
-Walters was let go from Nebraska.
-Walters will be taking an enormous pay cut from 700k salary in college. Why did he not take a similar job at another school?
-Walters has ZERO NFL coaching experience

None of this is to say he'll be a bad hire. Again, it just question why it's been deemee a "good hire". I'm just curious what I'm missing. From my perspective, we've got a coach coming off two terrible years who was let go, taking a big pay cut, with no pro coaching experience.

What am I missing that makes this a good hire?

Because Wes, most bengals fans are just SHAMLESS! That's right.. WE use pillow cases instead of pillow shams and are damned proud of it. Other than that I got nothing here.. Some barbarians just use pillows without any fancy schmancy coverings and decorate them with left over dried drool. You know who you are by the way..
