Wonder why they are trying to reiterate that so much?

Who knows. Maybe he had talked to some people about the possibility of retiring this year. Then some “insiders” got super excited to have a story for clicks? Trilly clearly got absolutely depantsed. And some of our fans (not you) seemed to be cheering it on, it was weird. Also I don’t include the NebCoog who simply posted what Trilly was saying.

Recruiting? I feel the recruiting chess games are starting even though the tournament hasn’t ended yet.

That is a perfect question!

Honestly I thought the narrative was out of nowhere but even knowing nothing about it if you played me that last question and answer from his press conference I’d be in full-on “he gone” mode

Thanks Coach! Let’s goooooooo!

Excellent news. We may very well get two / three more years out of coach and his quest for the championship.

Three more years on his contract. Wouldn’t be surprised if he finishes it. Loves the kids and the challenge.

He is the biggest recruit of the year.

100% #1 recruit!

I think people underestimate how hard it will be for him to walk away from coaching. Two factors could push him in that direction - win the whole deal or health issue. And I know he wants to win the whole thing, but I think what he REALLY wants is to close out a season without having to watch his guys walk off the floor with a loss.

I grew-up and had a family friend who was the head coach at the local JUCO. It took him a long time to finally decide it was time to retire. Even after that, he was paid to scout for NCAA Div. 1 schools.

Last time I saw him was at my parents 50th wedding anniversary in 2018. He told me how he personally knows Kelvin Sampson and said we hired a great man.
