Hmmm I don’t that’s fully accurate but I also don’t know the language of his contract but here is Florio’s take.

Beyond the obvious fact that there’s no reason to wait, the move puts Rhule immediately in play for one of the various head-coaching jobs that will be available at the college level. With the Panthers getting a dollar-for-dollar credit against Rhule’s buyout on what he makes elsewhere, it’s in Tepper’s financial interests to put Rhule in position to have a land rush for his services.

 

 

His Carolina contract also increased his level of attractiveness to Alberts. Rhule signed a seven-year, $62 million deal in 2020 and is owed more than $40 million through the end of the deal. Any salary paid to Rhule by his next employer is subtracted from the amount owed by the Panthers, so the program could get a relative bargain in Rhule — for the first four seasons of his deal.

From the article in The Athletic...

Rhule was offered the job earlier this month, sources previously told The Athletic, and then Nebraska came back to him this week with a stronger package.

good luck to him maybe he can actually beat a ranked team this time

Happy for Rhule and his family. Seemed like a decent fellow but just didn’t work here. Wish him nothing but the best!

I bet you live in the city. Your ignorance of that region and its ability to pump out food/agriculture to the country shows. 

Held my tongue for sure, and I am not a Nebraskan, corn farmer, or any of that. 
I recognize the condescension for what it is. Ignorant and probably ist in one or two ways as well.
