Open the checkbook?

First of all, Nebraska is not building any new state of the art arena. The city of Lincoln is building it and Nebraska is just playing there. Like the Century Link Center and Creighton.

Second, Osborne just said that the job has not been offered to anyone. And we all know that makes it official.

Third, the reason I asked the initial question was because any thoughts of paying a basketball coach at a place like Nebraska 2 million is crazy. The football coach makes 2.8 million. At a place like Nebraska where football is what it is and the basketball program is probably the worst in all the BCS, there is no way the football coach and the basketball coach is that close in pay. If we did that with a basketball coach then Bo would have to jump up about a million. Now if a basketball coach can come in here and build something then his salary could get up there but not to start.

Fourth, Brasky, blame your mom for my avi. She picked it out when we were on the computer with each other to buy a sex swing to get a little more adventurous.

Are you saying that the media is lying to us?!

I will just come out and say it.........I do believe we offered 2 million to Marshall. I do believe it.

Barfnect probably thought he heard $2 mil when what was actually said was $1.2 mil.

I figure Nebraska's cap to be 1.3 mil and Groce is already priced out of that figure. Face it, some of these candidates are career building and Nebrasketball is a career killer. Ala Turner Gill at KU. He was hot. Now?

NOT

Wichita State's Gregg Marshall turns down overture from Nebraska - NCAA Basketball - Sporting News

First, now a OWH writer has credibility? I thought all media sucked and was against the Huskers.

Second, I am not saying we won't pay $2 million. I do think that is too much but whatever. All I am saying is that Nebraska is not made of money. If they are goin to pay the basketball coach of the worst BCS job in the country $2 million then Bo and his agent will be really happy to hear that and then we will have to find more money for him.

What do you mean? Osborne officially said he didn't offer anyone the job. That was official.

Or are you just trying to stir the shit?

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Dropping Doc Sadler is really starting to seem like a mistake to me

 

[Jack_John_Mark]

Tad Boyle is making like $400k a year, and we can offer him quadruple that amount to come to Nebraska.................he's not interested.

Just an example to show where we're at...
