Doesn’t worry me. NU fans would probably lose their sh## if we paid 20-30 M in buyout and gave somebody a Mel Tucker deal.
No we wouldn't, if it's Urban. Load up the Red Wagon and spend all the money boosters will give.
That's exactly what it means. These administrative types never say anything directly. Reading between the lines, it's pretty clear what the statement means.
A good steward of resources to me means pay what you have to to get this right. Gonna be a lot more costly in lost resources if we don't start winning and winning big.....soon.
Nebraska just paid Frost 7.5M to go away for a few weeks. Nobody cares about money that isn't there's.
I thought the same thing.....here we go......Trev's fvcking with the fans even more than this convoluted search has. **** Trev's cheap *** spend the millions OR be FIRED.
Don’t be silly. This is the most professional coach search NU has ever seen by an AD. It isn’t as easy as some of us think.
I hope you right and I'm wrong six ways to Sunday. This is no time to be tight as 2 coats of paint.
The firing of Frost is all the evidence you need to understand where Trev stands on the money. The comment about being responsible with our resources was for public consumption by tight asses like myself. He’ll pay up for the right guy but hiring a cheaper guy IMO would just mean that he thinks he’s the RIGHT regardless of the contract. I have a lot of faith in Trev’s competency. I can’t think of any of our ADs in modern history I would want making this decision over Trev. JMO.
In trevs defense he spent 7.5 million dollars just to fire a coach 2 weeks early. Not a very good steward decision though
The boosters were winning to pony up the money to buy out Scott Frost's contract. Only ones who lost money were some rich boosters with money to spend.
I’m not sure it was that they were willing to give more money. Some of it was likely that if he didn’t pull the plug they were done giving. I believe both were in play. I was told one person with tremendous clout who had been opposed to firing Frost walked in to Trev’s box during or shortly after the Georgia Southern Game and said “it’s time”.
