LINCOLN, Neb. — Scott Frost is definitely not the only college football coach who can quote verses of scripture. He’s probably not the only head coach who regularly does crossword puzzles, preferring this publication’s puzzle and only filling out the grid in pen, of course.

He’s very, very likely the only one of his peers who can recite classic works of poetry, however, and absolutely the only head coach in the Football Bowl Subdivision who can do all of the following: quote scripture verbatim, get through a week of crossword puzzles and regurgitate poetic stanzas by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Thomas More and Robert Frost — his “Uncle Bobby,” Frost joked.
