Welcome to the world of college coaching contracts.
I just posted that because of the Rhule commentary, it’s silly to think DR15 would follow him there
I do wonder if DeBoer would leave Alabama for Nebraska. A chance to return to the Midwest and get out of Sabans shadow
We have his old AD too
Franklins buyout wont be a big financial problem for them. It has offsets and Franklin will be sought after and will get another big time head coaching gig
Turd negotiated that deal. Don’t believe we had much leverage bc of how much we sucked so he just bent over and gave Rhule everything to get him which was worth it.
It's 5M.
That's common. Most coaches pay nothing or next to nothing if they leave
they could probably negotiate it down to a $20 million lump sum and remove the offset so he can do whatever he wants
Also it’ll be paid over multiple years and they’re going to be getting a $100m+ check once this PE deal closes.
I think DeBoer knew Washington was going to be a bad fit in the B10 and unless you are USC or Oregon it is bad to be a west coast program! I’m still bullish in the NIL and revenue sharing era Nebraska can make hay.
