Several media reports say Frost is on the move. One report says he is headed to Syracuse. CBS Sports is reporting he is heading to South Florida and the University of Central Florida to replace the retiring George O’Leary. Frost has football in his blood and this move should not be too surprising. Scott Frost played at Nebraska and led them to a 24-2 record, as well as a National Title. He took a shot as a Defensive Coordinator before coming to Oregon and leading record breaking Offenses that led to Pac-12 Championships and a trip to the National Title.
