Brown coached at NU from 1987-2003 and 2008-14 before joining Bo Pelini's staff at Youngstown State briefly and spending teh past three years at Liberty University working for Turner Gill.
“Coach Brown had a tremendous impact on me during my playing career at Nebraska, and I am sure he will have a similar impact on many young men in our football program in the years ahead,” said Frost, who quarterbacked the Huskers while Brown was an assistant to Tom Osborne.
