I bet they told him look. It’s gonna happen. Why don’t we let Mickey joseph run the team and avoid the uncomfortable two weeks. You’ll collect your pay until 10/1. You’ll be on paid leave so to speak. And on 10/1 we will end the contract then.
no way they are gonna eat $7 million they don’t have to.
Per the local NU rag. Frost is getting the full buyout of $15 million.
Nebraska was at its best when every single Big8 or Big 12 team except Oklahoma eas terrible feasted on Kansas, Kansas State, Iowa State , Oklahoma State , Okie state was terrible til recently and even Colorado was mostly bad. They got a wakeup call when they joined the Big 10
According to the notoriously inaccurate internet, Trev Albert, the AD said he was relieved of duties. That sounds like a firing. My guess is that the reworked contract he signed at the end of last year included a greatly reduced buyout if he was fired. Just a guess but based on his record I don’t think they would have a problem with a buyout. From the time they hired Bob Devany, then Osborne and even the successors to Osborne prior to Frost Nebraska had more sustained success over about 50
years than any program in the country. they fired Frank Solich,
osbornes successor who won 75% of his games . Even the Italian guy, can’t remember his name won about 70% of his games. Wasn’t enough. Karma is a bitch
