Random Ramsdom: LA to add this former college coach?

Los Angeles Rams News and Links for 9/2/24

Reportedly (and perhaps this will be confirmed by the time this Random Ramsdom is published) the Los Angeles Rams are going to hire a former college head coach in Scott Frost. I don’t know much about Frost nor do I know much about what his role will be, and that seemed like a pretty good topic for a Random Ramsdom!

Please comment on whatever you like and happy Labor Day!

“The Los Angeles Rams are expected to hire former Nebraska head coach Scott Frost as a senior football analyst, On3’s Pete Nakos has confirmed.

Frost was the head coach at Nebraska from 2018 through 2022. Before that, he held the same position at UCF where he helped the Knights finish 13-0 in 2017.”

“Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic and ESPN’s Pete Thamel reported Sunday that head coach Sean McVay is hiring former NFL player and former Nebraska head coach Scott Frost. Thamel noted the position is officially senior football analyst, while Rodrigue said Frost “will help with a variety of roles on the staff (including special teams where they have a vacancy).”

Rodrigue also explained “this has been in the works for a few days” after Frost spent time with the Rams during training camp.”

“Now the pair — along with Ronnie Rivers — are poised to complement quarterback Matthew Stafford and receivers Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua in coach Sean McVay’s scheme.

In the second half last season, McVay and offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur adopted more of a smash-mouth rushing attack — and Williams flourished. He rushed for 100 yards or more four times in his last six games as the Rams rebounded from a 3-6 start and made the playoffs for the fifth time in seven seasons under McVay.”
