On a cold snowy afternoon, the Nebraska Athletic Department decided to drop a relative news bomb on the Husker faithful.
Coach Scott Frost issued the following statement in regards to Coach Dawson:
“Coach Dawson informed me late last week he had chosen to accept a coaching position with the New York Giants. Mike has been a key part of our staff the past three seasons at Nebraska and UCF. He is a man of great character, an outstanding teacher, relates well to players and is a tremendous asset for any coaching staff.
“When you are fortunate to have outstanding coaches on your staff, they are going to have other opportunities in this profession.
