Actually I was wrong. The 12.8M buyout is if WE FIRE him before year 4.

If he takes a new job he owes us 2.5M LINK
There is his contact in PDF form. Page 24 and page 30 have the information.

This would not be a popular hire among Nebraska fans, that's for sure.

Buyouts typically get renegotiated down. I don't know why you'd leave Arky for Nebraska though.



It's a step up.

Oh shite. Well, this certainly got more interesting.


Buyout is actually 2.5

bert said in his press conference today that if his name had come up as a possibility when we were looking at hiring him he would've backed out

he's not going anywhere that his name is linked to. if it ever happens it will come as a surprise imo

That just means he doesn't really love you.

Was it not a surprise when Bielema took the Arky job?

That would be a kick in the nuts after he just said this 2.5 hours ago at a press conference.

@NWARobbie: More from Bielema: "I can’t tell you how excited I am for next year and obviously my commitment to Arkansas in the long term.”

it means he's not a sleaze ball like most coaches leaking their name to get a raise.

see: any of jimmy sexton's clients

coaches are all full of shite...I'm not giving this story credit, but just that everyone in this business says one thing and then goes on to do another.

Yes. There were no leaks such as this before he got it.

ONly because he's from Iowa and people just look at the SEC record despite the situation he inherited.

He'd be a great fricking hire. Much better than a Scott Frost or Craig Bohl IMO.

Nebraska fans should hope this happens.

However, he will probably get a raise out of this if he stays.

Does a coach with 2 conference wins in 2 seasons deserve a raise?

The melt up I85 after Arky brings the checkbook after Gus would be even better than the Arky melt for Burt leaving for the cornfields.
