Section 13(c) of Rhule’s contract is a mitigation clause. If Nebraska fires him he has to make reasonable efforts to find another job, and his new compensation offsets what Nebraska owes him. His Panthers contract had a similar clause which saved Carolina $29m in buyout payments.
@Barefootin16 A new contract at $1m/year is $6m saved for Nebraska, $2m/year is $12m saved. Not insignificant, not great. Ideally he would be worth 2m+ to a P4 in a weaker conference or a higher tier G5 from his existing connections.
@LincolnInBio@Muph14 I haven’t brought up his sideline passion as a reason he sucks once. Thats your strawman argument😂. Kind of like how you said “one bad game to a historic Wisconsin team” you’ll just move goalposts or deflect to Rhule once your argument gets a few holes poked in it.
We had a coach like this in Lincoln and Eichorst fucking fired him and so many people want to play revisionist history and pretend like they weren't happy that he was fired.
@Muph14@LincolnInBio Blowouts to much worse teams? We’ve been blown out by a 7-4 team? Indiana, Iowa, and Utah are what I remember off hand. Not happy about any of those but he hasn’t been blown out in year 4 yet and we are talking about year 6 and 7 blow outs for Pelini.
@LincolnInBio@Muph14 1. You are extremely upset.
2. Matt Rhule having let downs doesn’t make Bo Pelini any less shit.
Michigan had Brady Hoke, Penn State was post scandal, Ohio State was sanctioned, and he still couldn’t finish/let Wisconsin absolutely brutalize his teams every single year.
@LincolnInBio “…one bad game against a historic Wisconsin team” lol what?
