Or as rumors suggest he invested it in a consumable white power that already went in his nose
Yeah your guess is just as good as anybody elses.

I've done some work for two pro ball players who got into bad business deals. It's sad. The same story with both. Dudes they trusted, knew for years, had great ideas and just needed seed capital. They both got on the hook for personal guaranties on construction loans for big real estate projects. Poof. And these weren't even nefarious (which I've seen too) these were just cases of putting a guy with no real estate or project management experience in charge of 8 figure projects. It's real easy to lose a lot quickly.
That sucks... Cause that burns bridges not just the cash too.
Well if Frost knocked up the beer cart girl, and many of those ladies are very fine looking for a reason at golf outings, without asking her if she was on the pill and without himself using protection then he deserves what he gets.
He should have used the Chapelle show method in the skit where he makes the young lady sign some type of waiver. funny show
Yes, bad investments to "friends" who cheat you have happened to many a rich person who doesnt know business

Omfg, their stupid sellout streak. The best thing that could happen to that program psychologically is to just let it end (which is why I hope they keep it going for years to come!)
It's the only thing they've got to hang their hats on at this point. "Have you heard about our sellout streak?" Yes, ffs, we've all heard, we just don't care!
I think it's just a very visible, high profile symbol that they cannot move on. It doesn't mean you have to accept sucking, but after 20+ frickin' seasons, at some point don't you have to make "accepting that times have changed" a priority as a step towards rebuilding?
But, yeah, sure - big thanks to your donors for keeping your stupid hubris alive for another game. Congrats!
Probably one of the best and safest real estate investments if you have a lot of money is buying duplexes, four plexes, etc using your money as collateral, having really good realtors and having good real estate managers. You buy a duplex in a good market for $400,000 and let the renters pay all the money to buy it as rent is high and demand for apartments/duplexes is high now. In 15 years you own the duplex outright using other peoples money and the property is now worth $550,000 which is all profit and you pay your income taxes and property taxes.
Hard to go wrong as people need a place to live, as long as you dont snort up the profits or drink or gamble them away.
But no as other people have said these highly paid people like a Tony Dorsett etc give their money to other people to invest, the money is lost or stolen, then you cant even pay your income taxes. Bad and sad

And asking about the pill doesn’t work when you’re a rich dude dealing with young chicks who want lots of money.
Ask me how I know (don’t worry, I’m not lucky enough to be rich and or attractive)….
There’s a really hot chick in my town with a six year old, a job paying in the mid teens per hour, and a decent house and car that are both paid for. Big Vikings fan who likes to go to training camp in Mankato, and her kid looks a lot like Adrian Peterson. Funny thing is that a blood test and a judge thought he looked a lot like Adrian Peterson too. The kid’s never met Adrian Peterson, though.
Getting neutered costs about $1,500 and would have saved Frost millions and millions.
Not even remotely surprising... Shawn Kemp I'm sure can relate. This is the same Adrian Peterson whos reputation is painted as a loving involved parent that cares so much he's willing to spank his kids? Just not the estranged ones he has from getting strange...

If Moos thought he needed to tell Frost who he had to hire as his assistants, he should have realized the guy wasn't ready to be his head coach. You can have assistants who want to be head coaches, guys who never want to be, NFL guys, high school guys, old guys, young guys, it doesn't matter. Good coaches are good coaches. A lot of of Kirk's success is based on having a network that included coaches like O'Keefe, Norm, Phil...and always keeping ears and eyes open about other coaches that have traits he looks for, whether that's a high school coach at Iowa City West or a receivers coach at Northern Illinois or a coach at Harvard.
A lot of the Frost story reminds me of Sark's time here at Washington. From a maturity standpoint wasn't ready to handle the responsibility of being a head football coach at a major university, and also surrounded himself with young assistants who pulled double duty as drinking buddies. Sark was regularly getting trashed at several spots, most of them with top tier talent working there. (And reportedly some banging, too). Which also ultimately contributed to a divorce down the road.
That said, Sark did a pretty nice job pulling UW out of the gutter (even if he plateaued there), and left a non-college town with enough of his reputation intact that it didn't submarine him forever, even after it caught up with him a bit more in LA. Not sure Frost will have shown enough from a coaching standpoint (and possibly a lot more damage to his reputation in that fishbowl) to bounce back as quickly as Sark has.

It's often a pretty good tip off when they can't get their seed money anywhere else.

No one will ever convince me that 12/12 guys from a group of 5 school in a soft conference, most of whom have literally zero coaching experience past 2 years with Frost, are ready for Big Ten football.
That would be like a really good high school coach getting his first college gig and taking his high school staff with him. Completely fucking ludicrous.
Ludicrous to even think of, and even more ludicrous to let it happen.

Not sure what is so ludicrous about that. Troy Walters was his first OC and had stops at Indiana State, Texas A&M, NC State, Colorado (and CF). His DC was at Oregon, the Philadelphia Eagles, Northern Iowa (and CF). His QB coach had been all over, both college and high school. Didn't Jerry Kill bring along his entire staff at every stop up the ladder, the highest rung being Northern Illinois before he took the Minnesota job?
Not saying Frost hired the right guys, but if you are the AD (and school president), you are putting a ton of trust into the coach as the public face of the university and the state's highest paid employee. If you can't trust to him to hire his own assistants when it comes to football than how can you trust him to be the public face of your university?

If you read my post I mentioned those guys had been other places. Nowhere as coordinators other than 2 years at UCF. They were Frost's bar buddies.
Lol. The highlight of Verduzco's career was as an assistant at an AAC school, the illustrious Rutgers. During his tenure there Rutgers had a .200 WP.
Kill was a complete flop at Minnesota, finishing his tenure with a losing conference and overall record. Not sure he's a good poster boy for staff recruitment.
