I saw speculation he agreed to it, so he could receive the payment as a lump sum, rather than spread out over several years and reduced by his new contract, as he plans to start coaching again right away. Seems like a good deal for both sides, if true.

Interesting when a guy is confident he'll have a good coaching job again soon. Has that ever happened when Nebraska fired a coach? No.

That is what you call being a pro and an adult and making the best of a situation, for both sides. Bravo to both parties for handling an uncomfortable situation with class.

No, but at the end of the day, there are not many coaches out there at his level and so the $10 million reduction would have been taken out of his next salary anyway.
