The three newly appointed assistant coaches joined seven others who were announced earlier this week.
Frost made it clear when he accepted the job that he planned to bring most — if not all — of his staff from UCF to Nebraska. He reiterated that the success in Orlando an in the AAC can translate to Lincoln and the B1G.
Nebraska is looking to make a return to national prominence under Frost and his staff after spending the last three seasons stuck in mediocrity. The Huskers finished last season 4-8 and ex-head coach Mike Riley was fired.
