TCU's coach is the only one I can think of, but, he took his team to a P5 conference in the shakeup, so, it was a good gamble. Pre-BCS I think, but, Leavitt turned down Bama to stay here which is astounding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't been publicly offered OR publicly turned down anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as for the turning down UF, he's headed to Nebraska so he simply told them through back channels, it wasn't going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching games this weekend, I THINK I heard one of the announcers say that Nebraska said they would not talk to him till after the conference championship game.

Zero chance someone from Nebraska hasn't reached out to someone from his team to gauge interest. No way Nebraska is just going to sit on their hands and wait another week and watch other coaches get hired around the country without knowing where they stand.

Maybe the comment was about a "formal" contact? Maybe I was still recuperating from Friday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nebraska will "formally" meet with him after the AAC game, but they're not offering him a job without knowing what his answer is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
