UCF’s Scott Frost Hated This the Most at Nebraska

Frost is getting reacquainted with the Orlando media. Last February, he joined “The Bridge” program on 96.9 The Game with Marc Daniels and Mike Bianchi. The tandem noticed Frost's affinity for footwear to start his second stint in Central Florida and asked about his Nike shoe collection.

"I tell this story: I wasn't a sneaker guy at all. I was loyal to Nike because of my time at Oregon, and Phil Knight sat next to me in the box when I called plays, and those guys were so good to me that I was very loyal Nike," Frost said about his time in Oregon as offensive coordinator from 2013 to 2015.

"I went to a school (Nebraska) that was a different brand and didn't like it and didn't like anything about it and when I got done there I got rid of all those type of sneakers."

When asked how many pairs of shoes he owned, the UCF head coach couldn't keep count. 

"I would buy a pair of Jordans or something or throwback Jordans and I'd buy my son the same pair because he liked to look like daddy RJ. RJ and I would rock the same shoes and kind of exploded from there, so I couldn't give you an exact number, but more than I need, I'll tell you that."

Nebraska was Adidas's first client in the collegiate space and has partnered with the German apparel brand since 1995. In the summer of 2017, the Cornhuskers inked a new deal that runs until June 30, 2028 and is worth more than $128 million in cash and goods, according to USA Today.

When Frost first started at UCF, he leaned on his relationship with his friends in Beaverton, Ore., where Nike is headquartered, to bring some of the Oregon Ducks' panache for unique uniform combinations. The Knights touted a new Nike redesign and overall refresh of their aesthetics to start the 2016 season. 

There have been rumors of another similar refresh later this fall.
