Scott Frost isn’t taking much of a pay cut moving back to UCF after all.
Frost, who was hired to return to lead the Knights in December, received a five-year, $22.1 million deal with the school, The Associated Press reported on Tuesday. Frost will start out making $3.9 million a year, just shy of the $4 million he was making in his last season at Nebraska. He will slowly increase his salary before it hits $5 million in its final year.
There are several standard bonuses in the deal, too, including a $75,000 bonus if the Knights reach the Big 12 championship game.
