Central Florida head coach Scott Frost will not remain on the market much longer, according to ESPN's Chris Fowler, who reports he will be the next coach to head Nebraska's storied football program.The deal, Fowler said, has been "done for awhile." The University of Nebraska-Lincoln has not confirmed the report, nor offered anymore details about the vacant position; there likely won't be any confirmation of the report until Frost coaches the Knights in Saturday's American Athletic Conference Championship Game.Nebraska athletic director Bill Moos confirmed Saturday that Frost is a candidate he’s considering to replace Mike Riley after Frost turned down Florida’s attempt to secure a meeting, according to USA Today’s Dan Wolken. The Florida position, according to multiple reports, will be filled by Mississippi State’s Dan Mullen.With Chip Kelly landing at UCLA, former Texas A&M coach Kevin Sumlin reportedly to accept the Arizona State head coaching position and Ohio State defensive coordinator Greg Schiano reportedly to accept the head coaching job at Tennessee, many believe the proper dominoes have fallen to land Frost in Lincoln.Brad Stephens of KCATV said as much on Twitter: "Hearing from UF Insiders that Scott Frost told Gator admin. this morning that he is taking #Nebraska job."
