Ah, the classic I have insider information but can't confirm any of it. 

Whenever there is a coaching change are always a thousand people who suddenly have these amazing sources and all of this insider information. 99% of them are full of complete BS. 

The most public info that we have is what Rittenburg said on the radio this morning to an ORLANDO radio station. He wasn't just BSing because it was a Nebraska station, he said it to a radio station based in Orlando.

It's like 10,000 spoons when all you need is a knife.

 
So the post I made earlier about the fishing buddy who knows things. In earth shattering fashion he heard an update that we offered the same contract amount to frost and peterson and told them whoever responds first gets it.

Rittenburg's exact quote in the interview is:

"There is knowledge on the UCF staff that Nebraska is going to make a major offer for Scott Frost, which is not a huge shock. Nebraska is in a very compromised position. They have to get rid of a third year coach in Mike Riley, you have a new Athletic Director in Bill Moos, they've slipped out of national relevance as you know, so they don't have a lot of leverage here whereas Scott has all the leverage. I think this is going to be an offer that will be outside the market that you typically see for a second year head coach at the Group of 5 level. So its going to be a major major offer. I'm not saying he's definitely going to accept it, but there is a belief on that coaching staff that there is a very good chance that Scott is heading home to Nebraska. So we will see what happens, but again Nebraska is poised to make a very strong commitment. No formal contact with UCF, you can't do that when you still have a coach, but it is coming from Big Red."

Emphasis mine, obviously. 

This is how national media works. They don't have time to cover things in detail for all of these teams, so they deal in plausibles and disclaimers. It's all inference.

That seems like a terrible way to make a coaching hire.

What is the amount? I am going to assume it is north of $5M per year.
