What would even be the point of extending the contract if his buyout didn't go up? That would be a pretty big red flag if LL agreed to more money but with just as much freedom to leave, no?

I was told by some big time Hawks that the reason they have a terrible recruiting class is because of the questions around LL staying and that announcing an extension helps with that commitment.

I asked about the buyout, and was told it doesn't matter.

Maybe I’m missing something obvious, but it seems to me that the only leverage LL has to get an early extension and more money would be the threat of leaving. If he’s not giving anything in that regard then there’s no purpose.

KU's just establishing the market base. The big time programs are going to double that on first offer to someone who isn't a young guy ad toiled in the minors for years.

Yeah, I'm guessing him signing some undefined extension will get them from having no commitments to a respectable class, in less than a month.

They also said this doesn’t matter either because they will continue to kill it in the portal. Pointing out their 21st ranked transfer class last year.

It wasn’t ranked 21st simply because they had the 7th most transfers in the country either…..

Coaching search that didn’t end in hilarious disaster is something I didn’t expect for Nebraska

I don't think much of Deion but I think him taking the Colorado job is mutually a very poor choice.

So what will have more impact for Rhule at Nebraska - one incredible year at Baylor or ties to the NFL (but getting canned)?

I expect a common talking point will be that Saban also failed miserably as an NFL coach

I can’t think of a worse pairing. I assume only an SEC or ACC team can get him to accept.

i think deion would be a great fit for iowa state when campbell inevitably leaves for alabama

They were a yard away from the CFP last season, as frustrating as this season had to be for them, he's more than earned the right to usher them to the new big 12

Man, great timing to get Fickell out of Cincinnati. I don't think he would have had the success he had last year, in the Big 12, but happy to have him gone.

The Shaw news is shocking to me. I watched his press conference. I hope he doesn't take a job right away but does some TV. He's a smart dude, I'm sure he'd be good on TV.

I would love for Auburn to hire Shaw, but I know they won't and he'd be crazy to take it .

I think it was me?  I'll try and find the thread.  And we can always roll that into another bet if it was.
Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever
