Do whatever the heck you have to. It never seemed like we tried that hard to keep him coaching.
I’m stunned at you people....

Pay him 11 million a year, buy him a new house. Ban alcohol sales on Sunday. Bring back the DARE program In schools. Then Tom would have stayed.
I was in Kindegarden and remember this day well it was like low 50s in Omaha and I was out playing much of the day I knew it was big because the the olders grade school kids were in and out all day in an extremely excited state giving updates on the texas notre dame game and then the ohio state stanford games, two games we had to go are way to win the NC.
his health at that time was not at a point where it was a good idea to continue. Most people don't know how close he came to dying that last year. The public accounts of his illness were dramatically understated. It was definitely the right time to lower his stress level and work load. He worked a tremendous number of hours during the season. From late August to the end of November he slept in his office so he could watch game tape late. There was no better prepared coach anywhere in college football to the point that he could predict what individual opposition players would do when given a particular situation during a play. Nobody outcoached him. Nobody outworked him.
I not so sure it was in the 50’s.. I remember snow being on the ground and a lot of it and I lived in Millard..
Wow, way to drop the "you people" remark!!!!
Very sad that you would interpret that way...
