Steven M. Sipple: Frost confident in staff; learning to 'step on throats'; and Fred's plight

During an interview Friday with the Journal Star, Nebraska football coach Scott Frost didn't explicitly say that he would bring back all his assistant coaches for next season, and I didn't ask him about it directly.

I didn't ask Frost directly because he three times referred to his confidence in his staff's ability. In fact, he often refers to it. Bottom line, I'd be shocked if he fired anyone following this season even though the Huskers are 4-5 (2-4 Big Ten) with a rough road ahead.

I've known Frost since his days as a Husker quarterback in the mid-1990s.
