When Scott Frost first came to Nebraska, he was hailed as the Golden Boy of Nebraska football. He talked a big game, claiming he had all the answers. He routinely talked about how much better his staff was at doing things than the previous staff had been. It never came close to panning out on gameday. When the smoke cleared on the Scott Frost era, he never posted a winning record, and he was fired three games into his final season after losing to Georgia Southern. At the time, the issue never seemed to be trustworthiness, but maybe that was just because Husker fans were too trusting.
A new list from Saturday Blitz’s Nicholas Rome put together the Top 10 coaches in college football who should never be trusted to run a program. Frost made the list at No. 7, and while that’s not particularly high, it’s notable that he made the list at all.
It’s also worth pointing out that while Frost’s tenure at Nebraska is the one most people think of, he’s in his second run at UCF, and it’s possible the Knights should be wary about trusting the head football coach as time goes on…
