Scott Frost ventured into uncharted waters this winter when, for the first time in his head coaching career, he had to hire a replacement full-time assistant coach.
Frost, entering his second year at Nebraska and fourth overall as a head coach, put together his initial staff before taking over at Central Florida prior to the 2016 season, kept the band together for two years with the Knights and added from within the group when he made Barrett Ruud his 10th assistant after arriving at NU in January 2018.
Only when Mike Dawson left for the New York Giants in February was Frost tasked with adding to a group that considers itself as tight-knit as any in the country.
