Hey guys, I've been able to CONFIRM the following hires for Scott Frost's staff here at Nebraska:
Erik Chinander - DC
Jovan Dewitt - Associate HC/ LB / Special Teams
Greg Austin - OL
Ryan Held - RB
Mario Verduzco - QB
Travis Fisher - DB
Mike Dawson - DL
Matt Davison - Associate AD for Football
My source says he believes Barrett Ruud and Zach Duvall will also be heading to Nebraska as well, but that nothing was official or positions were not yet finalized. I will continue to update as I get more info.

==========================================================
Here are the guys that we have a pretty strong idea are coming with him...I've been told six total coaches, but can't pin down if that includes that strength coach in that numbers.
Erik Chinander - DC
Greg Austin - OL
Ryan Held - RB
Mario Verduzco - QB
Barrett Ruud - LB
Sean Dillon - Recruiting
Ryan Callaghan - Recruiting
Zach Duvall - head strength
Andrew Strop - No. 2 strength to Duvall
***A name to watch for Frost's OC is current Washington co-OC Matt Lubick. Frost tried to hire him at UCF, but they couldn't match the other offer he had out there. He took over as Oregon's OC when Frost left for UCF after the 2015 season. Washington paid him $475,000 this past season, which was nearly a $180,000 pay-cut from what he made at Oregon.
***I also just learned the play from Orlando should be taking off to Lincoln by 8 pm. Frost and a group of those guys will be on it with him.
***Also, look for UCF to go after Kevin Sumlin. They want to hire him by tomorrow if possible.
