I think you underestimate how seriously the conservative folks in Nebraska take an extra $10 million. Do you not remember how people lost their mind over Callahan's buyout of what 3-4 million. Do you know what Frost's buyout would be IF we canned him any time soon. I just don't know what you're trying to argue. Should we have just ignored "coach's hot seat"? It used to be the AD gave the old "vote of confidence" which was the kiss of death. Money talks. Bullsh## walks.
Frost wasn't going to get canned anytime soon whether he got an extension or not. And let me emphasize, I do think he will get the program turned around at some point.
I have never said that the extension guarantees he'll be at NU for 7 years. The extension wasn't about 3-4 years from now. It's about the here and now. NOW national bloggers and reporterettes were questioning his job security. That's been silenced. It's probably bought at least another year of silence from those clowns.
This is one of those stories where you feel bad for the fired coach. I don't feel bad for the Bill Callahans who shrug their shoulders, takes the big money and walk away. But for some people, it means more. I wish Dave Odom the best.
Well Nebraska fires coaches that win 9-10 games every year......so who are we to judge??
