Money changes everyone’s priorities, and it’s not misleading , professionalized means paying them!!

right up there with being a virtue signaling blowhard

he had a chance to keep his word. now everyone knows what I always have - he's a double-talking coward

Maybe he doesn't think paying players (NIL) fully equates to professionalizing college athletics.

I certainly don't think it does.

Meyer is worth that amount in this market.
does the whole Jax thing just not factor at all here?

I mean, the guy was absolutely laughed out of the NFL & has made a mockery of himself & his employers over and over again

threw everyone under the bus along the way, no accountability whatsoever

I bet he can still win big at the college level. That’s why he would be worth the money.

I hope Nebraska does anything and everything it can to get the best possible coach and field the best possible team. I have no interest in having a ****** football team for the sake of saving $$.

i think we can find a diamond in the rough who will be a pretty good coach at a much more reasonable salary no sense spending so much money if you can spend less and still have decent result on the field

I don't give a s*** about what salaries are for our coaches anymore I just want a winning product on the field because it isn't like it benefits me if we get a coach for a bargain.

There just seems to be a lot of irony in your post.

Exactly. The money is getting spent no matter what so we may as well be good

I would LOVE for one of these college coaches to be like "Of course I do it for the money, not the love of coaching or shaping young men...if I really cared about that **** over the money I would be coaching HS ball for about 8,000 dollars a season while teaching ******* PE"

I guess the question the rest of us have to ask is...why does it matter? It is not your money.

100% of people in high positions in government are double-talking virtue-signaling blowhards. Anyone making $10M with the fancy power cocktail parties, everyone smooching their backside....not one of them is ever going to rock the boat or do anything that might cost them their job.

3 years ago he literally said, completely unprompted, that he would quit if players ever got paid

Must have been nervous about the pending opening in Lincoln. Decided to pony up early.

So what is your point, exactly? That people other than football coaches can also be blowharding hypocrites? Who's arguing otherwise?

University leadership is in the same category as politicians. Taxpayer funded, cocktail party club, no accountability.

You continue to show a large amount of cluelessness with each post. Carry on. I guarantee you could not keep up with an AD for a week of their schedule, meetings, contacts and decisions.

What's so unusual about Moos? Our last AD (at Minnesota) got fired for too much drinking on the job too. All the partying is normal...it's just that he sent too many nude photos and some leaked out.

Moos was hardly ever in Lincoln , spent more time at his ranch,,had his assistants cover for him. Yes he drank that didn’t bother me , but you have to be in your office.

Not really.
With technology the way it is, u really dont need to be in the office all the time as an AD that is just old school thinking In a new world life.

And just becuz ur not in ur office also doesn't mean ur not working either. Plenty of phone calls and Skype meetings can be done away from the office to keep up on ur job.
