Why would the assistant coach lie? It is pretty obvious Frost would've been a better pick up than Mullen. Mullen didn't have a great record at Miss StHopefully he does better at Florida!One does wonder if UF is still really a top tier program. The only time we've ever gotten our #1 choice at coach in decades was with Urban. Kind of speaks for itself.--On Thu, Jun 14, 2018 at 1:46 PM, Oliver Barry <barryo@realtracs.com> wrote:We were told from the start that Frost was going to Nebraska, his alma mater.
I don't believe this either, just because some asst coach says it doesn't make it true.

Not sure if I buy this. Mullen brought everyone he wanted and I believe he didn't keep anyone from the prior regime so I don't understand why UF would tell Frost he couldn't.

The Florida Gators offered Scott Frost the head coaching job. Here's why he turned it down
Additional article content not readily reproduced here can be seen at URL at the top of the story.
Instead of Dan Mullen, the University of Florida offered the head coaching position to former UCF coach Scott Frost, according to the Omaha World-Herald.
Frost, who is Nebraska's head coach, turned down the Gators when he couldn't bring his entire staff, Nebraska tight ends coach Sean Beckton told the Omaha World-Herald.
Frost was considered a leading candidate to take over in Gainesville after guiding UCF to an undefeated regular season along with former Oregon and Philadelphia Eagles head coach Chip Kelly.
Kelly landed at UCLA, while Florida hired Mullen, a former assistant, away from Mississippi State. Meanwhile, Frost led the Knights past Memphis to win the American Athletic Conference championship. News broke Frost's alma mater, Nebraska, hired him to become its next head coach during the AAC championship game.
However, Frost stayed on board as UCF's coach through the Peach Bowl game, which ended with a victory over Auburn to become the only undefeated Football Bowl Subdivision program.
The Knights celebrated that achievement with a national championship claim equipped with a Disney World parade, championship merchandise, rings and a banner.
Alabama was last season's national champions after winning the College Football Playoff over Georgia.
UCF did not compete in the CFP.

UF never even interviewed Frost. There was a contingent that came to Orlando to talk to him and he refused to meet with them.
As to why would the assistant lie? I would say because it makes Nebraska look good and possibly creates an recruiting advantage in Central Florida...
The bigger question is, why would she assistant know the details of the search? This story is pure fan fodder for the cornholes.
