NU Notebook: Frost Embraces "GameDay" Hoopla

They're coming to our city, and Scott Frost is, almost literally, rolling out the red carpet.

Frost, the second-year Nebraska football coach, said he welcomes ESPN's "GameDay" crew, and, most notably, the hoopla that surrounds it.

While players tried downplaying the extra media attention, saying it's for fans, and their job is a football game, Frost explained the importance of having the national television pregame show broadcasting live Saturday morning from outside Memorial Stadium.

"This is a good opportunity to highlight our program, the direction the program is going, the improvement we have made, the path that we are on," Frost said Monday at his weekly news conference.
