The Daily Nebraskan News Story (1299 words)
Frost justified his choice to fans: He wanted to have the opportunity to play under former NFL Coach Bill Walsh, and he hoped that running a pro-style, drop-back passing offense might prepare him for a career at the next level.
The beginning of Frost's troubles with fans began with 10:38 remaining in the first quarter of Nebraska's 19-0 loss at Arizona State when a snap to Frost by center Aaron Taylor sailed past the signal caller, flew into the end zone and resulted in a safety.
Frost totaled minus-7 yards rushing and 66 yards passing but rebounded from the loss, moving on to set the Nebraska single-season record for a junior with 1,878 yards of total offense.
Red-dogged - Nebraska quarterback Scott Frost Sporting News, The - Find Articles (892 words)
Though Scott Frost, a 6 3 215 pound junior, doesn't look in the mirror and see Todd Marinovich, there are plenty of similarities between the two young men, each of whom was anointed King of College Football before either held court.
At the Frost home, parents Larry (a nail-tough Nebraska halfback from 1967 to '69) and Carol (a four-time national discus champ and a member of the 1968 U.S. Olympic team) started timing Scott in the 40-yard dash when he was 2 1/2 years old.
Larry Frost is laconic concerning the decision and says with a shrug, "It was his life." A fair number of the snubbed Nebraska populace, however, thought good riddance and suggested he not let the screen door hit him in the rear as he rode off to pursue California gold.
