Mavric Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 Word is the University knew he was looking and tried to do things to keep him here. Changed the AD to report to him. Put him on the B1G Council. Gave him a raise. The thinking was they had done enough to keep him. But apparently not. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Maybe that's why Pillen was all butt hurt on the radio this week. Nebraskans can get very sensitive when someone looks to leave the state for any reason. 1 Quote Link to comment

I don't know what gave them that impression but they thought he wasn't looking anymore. 1 1 Quote Link to comment

Leading a school like Ohio State and that paycheck is among the top academic jobs in the country. Quote Link to comment

But, with the difference between what he was making here and what he's making there, I can't imagine they raised it THAT much. Quote Link to comment

Just a bigger scale all the way around. Would be interesting to know where the confusion came from. But I doubt we ever will. 1 Quote Link to comment
