Steven M. Sipple: Brown's wisdom valuable as Frost establishes standards for young program

MADISON, Wis. — Consider this an addendum to my column last week in which Ron Brown offered perspective on Scott Frost as a leader.

Brown, the Nebraska football team's director of player development, was a ward of the state of New York as a youth before being adopted by a family in Massachusetts. The family adopted another foster child, a girl from the Bronx, and later yet another foster child, a boy from Boston.

“But he chose not to be a part of the family by just the way he was living,” Brown told me last week.
