Scott Andrew Frost (born January 4, 1975) is an American football coach and former player who serves as the head football coach at the University of Central Florida. He was the head football coach at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln from 2018 to 2022, and previously served as UCF's head coach from 2016 to 2017. Born in Lincoln, Nebraska, Frost played college football as a quarterback for the Stanford Cardinal and the Cornhuskers, the latter of which he led to a national championship in 1997. Frost has coached Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Mariota and Heisman candidate McKenzie Milton. He played professionally for six seasons at safety in the National Football League (NFL). After retiring as a player, Frost served as an assistant coach for several college football teams, most notably as the offensive coordinator for the University of Oregon from 2013 to 2015, where he helped the 2014 Oregon Ducks football team to a berth in the first college football playoff (CFP), where they lost to Ohio State in the national championship game. Frost was subsequently hired as the head football coach at the UCF, where he coached for two seasons. After an inaugural season of 6–7 in 2016, Frost's 2017 Knights posted a 13–0 record, winning the American Athletic Conference championship and defeating the Auburn Tigers in the Peach Bowl. The Colley Matrix recognized the 2017 UCF team as national champions, and the school claims a national title despite not receiving an invitation to participate in the College Football Playoff. However, the NCAA only recognizes the 2017 UCF team as a “Final National Polls Leader,” reserving “National/Co-National Champion” status for teams that finish atop at least one of the “consensus polls,” those being the AP, Coaches Poll, and NFF/FWAA. This remains Frost's only winning season as a head coach. In...
