Nebraska AD admits Scott Frost is a target in coaching search

The Nebraska Cornhuskers are not really hiding the fact that they’re interested in hiring Scott Frost away from UCF.

Athletic director Bill Moos confirmed Saturday that Frost, a former Nebraska quarterback, is very much under consideration for the school’s now-vacant coaching position.

Nebraska AD Bill Moos on Frost: "Scott is someone I am considering, but I'm being very sensitive to the fact he's still coaching a team and he's having a heck of a run."

There’s a lot of sentimental value in hiring Frost, who was the starting quarterback for Nebraska’s undefeated 1997 team. He may, however, have other, potentially more appealing options once he’s ready to assess and decide on his future.
