With Rhules buyout going to 15 million from 5 million is that enough to persuade Pedo state from not taking him?
Is there a difference between 15 and 5?

At the end of the day, he’s just one individual. Where he chooses to work is ultimately up to him, provided there’s someone willing to pay for his talents. Nebraska has every opportunity to make a compelling case for him to stick around, but if he decides to move on, the school can seek out another coach... who might end up being a slam-dunk hire, a disappointing one, or somewhere in the middle. The best approach is to focus on winning the last two games and then accept whatever happens next. Finishing 9-3 would signal clear progress, and that’s exactly what everyone wants to see.
So in short
I don't give a ****
Pedo state would never go for Rhule, he isn't a good enough coach but he could have been uncomfortable being lead by an AD who didn't hire him, with relatively high expectations at Nebraska to eventually win 9-10 games. The schedule next year is brutal and people will be pissed with 5 wins. There will be a ton of schools looking for a new coach next year and the 15 million buyout will keep him from being poached by maybe a Utah, or a Texas Tech or BYU or Ole Miss or even an LSU that is now being careful with its money. The culture around football is that buyouts are too large, coaches are making too much because players must now be compensated, so the buyout matters some.
I guess you’ll have to wait and see. We have two games left and I’m curious how our new QB will perform against stiffer competition.
The bye week came at a great time for TJ and I don’t think Dana showed everything he can do in the playbook against USC and UCLA.
The difference is 10
I see 10 wins next year, with maybe 2 defeats to osu and oregon. not sure why people think it's a hard schedule ?
Indiana seems volatile but have to assume they are a loss...I see 10 wins next year, with maybe 2 defeats to osu and oregon. not sure why people think it's a hard schedule ?
Indiana, Ohio State, Iowa, Illinois, Oregon are all losses...multiple will be ugly. Five auto losses is a big deal because Washington and Maryland will likely be close games. I think we win 6 but that will be disappointing.
ohio state and oregon maybe, indiana, Illinois and iowa we will surpass as the rebuild moves to football factory
It’s a factor without a doubt. But it’s not a deal breaker. If Penn State really wants Coach Rhule and He would agree to make the move, they’d be able get the money. If the roles were reversed, so would Nebraska. There would be public blowback, and careers would definitely be one the line, but the money is out there.
Again you use the word We . You are not fooling anyone. Go play in traffic wherever you live in Iowa.
