This ^^^
It's plus or minus a 20% raise, more than a lateral move, and with the uncertainty about Bo's job status all year he'd be dumb not to consider it.
Side note, but we could pontentially end up with 7 Jucos in this class? Cockrell, Keys, McDaniel, Lockhart, Clinkscales, Keels, and Lauderdale. Not that I would be upset about that, but that's most JUCOS we've taken since?
I disagree that Eichorst played it wrong. The media firestorm really took off after the MSU loss. We didn't know if we'd win out or lose out at that point, so from his perspective I agree on waiting to see how the rest of the year went.
If he were willing to come in and compete for the spot, I'd support it. As of now, we are only certain we have two QBs that are on scholarship and will be capable of playing next fall. Fingers crossed on Darlington, but he's far from a guarantee at this point. We could be two injuries away from a walk ok QB...
My action plan: fall in line, hopefully we land Terrell Clinkscales, pray Gregory stays, and return to Huskerboard once the full retard settings are removed.
Would it though? I mean if they make the determination to fire him, there's no point keeping him on as a lame duck coach. Whatever they choose, you make that choice now.
Bad analogy.
He is the highest paid state employee in Nebraska and isn't responsible for the football program? The Nebraska brand isn't his responsibility to protect?
Out of proportion? I'm dumbfounded that people will defend such a lapse of judgement. He is the CEO of the football program that generates millions in income to the university. If the CEO of any major company came out and said f#*k the customers and I'm leaving as soon as I can, he'd be out of a job. Whether he was on or off the record, this leaked and there is no righting this ship. He's going to look recruits in the eyes now and talk about how amazing our fans and tradition are? Do you not think other coaches will use the fact he said he is leaving in recruiting battles?
