In addition to those financial details, Frost will also be reimbursed for moving expenses and will receive 20 hours for personal travel on a private jet.

Returning to his alma mater is a dream scenario for Frost. It’s unlikely he would bolt for another job, but Nebraska athletic director wants to keep his new head coach happy, which explains such a lucrative contract.

Frost was officially introduced as Nebraska’s new head coach on Sunday.
