Maybe it's not about the money.I explained to my wife (a passive football fan, not a Neb grad) that NU is bringing back Frost, but renegotiated his contract so he’ll get less money if they fire him next year. Her response was “Why would he agree to that? He should have told them he wasn’t changing his contract terms and they could fire him instead and take the $20M and go live on a beach for a couple years.”
I was like “good point”.
