    Assistants, assistant budget, data analytics, nutrition plans, facility upgrades, additional analysts, buyout protection (Mac issue), not having to rub the tummy of boosters, no meddling from administrators

    That's a better fit for Nebraska. I just don't see Frost being able to get remotely enough speed to effectively run his system in Nebraska.

    If they actually tried to force Shannon on Chip fire them all, but at this point that's just conjecture. As far as being terminated at any time without receiving a dime, that's an absurd notion. Unless you're suggesting that he wanted to have the freedom to make up death threats without repercussions and we should've given it to him.

    And once again, I'll ask for a link or a source on how you know this. And you'll come up blank. So you're literally just making things up to fit your narrative.

    "Kelly met with UCLA leadership 24 hours after his sit-down with UF. The Bruins meeting took place in San Francisco, not in Los Angeles as previously had been reported. One of the big pushes for Kelly wasn’t on the financial end for him but rather to ensure UCLA’s commitment to his vision to develop and optimize the experience of its student-athletes. It was also important to Kelly who he was working with and to feel good about those folks. He’d taken note of a few other situations where the leadership had been pretty dubious in how some programs treated their staff."

    Exactly. Campbell much better fit for them, Frost better fit for us. Get it done and we can all be happy

    That's the first thing that looks positive today. Maybe complete BS but I'll take it.

    A wise man once said to ‘trust but verify’. Unfortunately there is no way to verify any of the ‘inside information’. The only fact we can verify is that a group from UF made a visit to Kelly. That it is. We can’t verify that there was any agreement in place for Kelly to back out of. So, any post here by anyone is speculation at best. That also means it is only speculation that the admin screwed the offer up.

    It's not the first time he's made promises and then backed out. He's always been a weasel.

    I think we’re getting Frost because I keep hearing things like this. Wishful thinking?

    I think it's attitudes/posts like this that make us appear unattractive to outsiders. That includes potential coaches...

    That would be a great fit for Campbell and Nebraska.

    The ESPN crawl said $23m over 5 years. I pretty much guarantee that money wasn't the issue.
