The quotes are out there, SF has said he wants to come home. That means there’s an inclination to consider NU if all things are right. If he does and says it me, not you, then fine. But if the admin/AD low balled Scott or his staff (which is the idiot stuff I think is more likely) then it’s on our admin/AD.
First of all, We will never know who we offered and got turned down by, it makes our "backup" HC look like the backup plan rather than "THE GUY"
Second, People change, goals change, and having a child changes lives - especially the first child. Scott is a Family Man now, he cannot unilaterally make decisions anymore.
The most recent quote of SF saying this is his #1 Goal, his Dream job etc is 5 years old. Did hiring MR sour that? who knows. Not every problem can be solved by throwing money at it.
If you throw enough money at a Doctor will he be able to fix a decapitated body?
The only sure thing we can speculate about is that only SF knows what his heart desires.
I would be absolutely shocked if SF doesnt come here and Moos admits that he offered frost and had to settle for a 2nd or 3rd or 4th or whatever pick... that would be demoralizing to who we end up with. Wont happen. Suck it up and get what you get and dont throw a fit!
