That day came Sunday as the current Nebraska football coach and his father were two of 26 athletes, coaches, teams, contributors and officials inducted as the Class of 2019 at Lincoln East High School.
“I make no secret about it, I was approached to be inducted into the Hall of Fame in Nebraska quite a while ago,” Scott Frost said during his 12-minute speech. “I declined in the hope that one day my dad would be inducted, too, and I could be inducted the same time as my dad. So this is really special for me.”
Scott Frost spent no time during his speech talking about his playing days at Wood River.
