Is there some quick opt-out provision or something? I thought the Board of Regents had to vote on approving coaching contracts, or is that merely a formality? Thanks, I'll hang up and listen. I think they usually sign a memorandum of understanding so that the coach can start working while the contract details are worked out and approved by the BOR. IIRC that's why A&M announced Adazzio getting an extension in like October of this past year when his previous contract had expired 10 months before. They had a MOU in place in between.
January 16, 20241 yr My understanding is Nansen is already under contract and the buyout for him to leave Texas is ~500K. That is what the Arizona side was saying during the HC buzz anyway. There’s no way that a coach would agree to, nor would UT require, a buyout for a Head Coaching position move by a co-Coordinator/Position coach. OK…maybe “no way” is a reach….so I’ll say highly doubtful
January 16, 20241 yr Saw this posted on Reddit - Nansen would be an idiot to go back to Arizona in any capacity Quote Fisch asked for a new contract multiple times in December and Arizona kept dragging their feet Nansen was lost to Texas because the Arizona BOR wouldn't hold a special meeting to give Nansen a new contract The Arizona AD finally presented Fisch with an MOU, but said it couldn't be signed by either party until the Arizona BOR approved it and they weren't willing to hold a special meeting to approve it and so Fisch would have to wait until Feburary to find out if the contract offer made by the AD was an offer that the AD could really stand by.

January 16, 20241 yr Our coaches aren't even good enough to get mid-level HC jobs? What kind of shitty position coaches is Sark hiring?

Didn’t Billy Gillispie work for over a year without signing a contract.
January 16, 20241 yr Author I am seeing some smoke on twitter about the Eagles letting go of most of their Defensive staff, but it seems like the vast majority want to retain Rocker so I guess we shall see.

January 16, 20241 yr From FootballScoop on Paul Chryst: ”Chryst has been instrumental in the acclamation of Texas backup quarterback Arch Manning. "They're close," Cooper Manning said of his son's relationship with Chryst last month.

Don't let @blacklab catch you putting movie reviews in the 2024 recruiting roundup. Also, in 2039 - on the 100th anniversary of Aggy's only natty - people will be in the 2040 recruiting thread bitching about Will Ferrell movies from the early 2000s, and saying how unfunny they are and how they couldn't find anything at all funny about Anchorman, Talladega Nights, Stepbrothers, or Old School.

January 16, 20241 yr I don’t know, maybe Chryst gives Arch a standing ovation every time he enters a room. And Cooper digs that.

Honest question based on this, Nansen and a few coaches at other schools...do they not sign contracts? I don't understand how you're allowed to accept a job and one school and then turn around and take a job at another school a few days, or weeks later.

Have you followed football, or sports in general over the past, say, 40 years? Off the top of my head, you can ask guys like Bill Belichick, Todd Graham, Kliff Kingsbury, Jerry Gray (I think), Tashard Choice, Chris Beard, etc. It happens. The simplest answer is you resign. These men are not chattel. They are free to move. Belichick did it on a napkin…which sounds like a euphemism for something much dirtier.
