Neither of
Scott Frost’s top two rushers from the running back position in 2017 at
UCF weighed more than 165 pounds. While that suggests he prefers speed over power at the position, at
Nebraska Frost is able to recruit both. Four-star JUCO transfer Bell was previously committed to
Louisville, but signed with Nebraska in the early period after being heavily pursued by the Cornhuskers following Frost’s hire. Although the lower-rated of the two backs, three-star Washington may be the more heralded after his MVP performance at the Under Armour All-American Game in January.
