Coach Frost is everything, man. I won the most-inspirational award last night and he told me I’m like one of his sons,” Moore said in the locker room afterward as he fought back tears. “That man is such a special dude. Nebraska players don’t know what they’re getting from that guy. He’s such a cool, nice dude. It’s more than football with Coach Frost. You can see why everybody is crying in the locker room. I don’t think we’ll ever come across a guy that cares so much about his players like he did.
“After the game, I didn’t even celebrate because I was happy, I knew all along we were going to win, but my dad man … so many people tell me he’s here with me, but I just want him physically, you know. I just wear this [chain with a pendant of Bam and his dad] around my neck every day and I just wish he was here with me. I just take it day by day.”
