Contracts don't mean didly-do these days.

You know full well the point is she wouldn't be signing it if she was contacted by or interested in Minnesota.

Or her representative told the AD she had been contacted and what did he want to do about it. There really are no employer/employee loyalties anymore. It's all about the money.

Let it go she isn’t going to MN

Sure she would sign it because she wants her team not to be looking over their shoulder about her. But she could also have every intent to leave. She will do just about anything to win this weekend. We've all seen college football and basketball coaches have very long contracts and then just up and leave.

Never said she was.

Let me save you the trouble. She doesn't have every—or any—intent to leave.

Yes, they do. Most college coaching contracts have buy-outs written into them, in case the coach wants to go elsewhere, or the school wants to get rid of the coach without cause. The coach movement we see is permitted by the contracts.

I guarantee you that those buy-outs are enforced.

You don't think she or the U have buyouts written in the contract? Of course they do.

Of course they do. And those buyouts are high enough that the chance of Muzerall going anywhere over the next several years is zero.

So you are saying there's a chance.....

 

[Still Eeyore]

So you are saying there's a chance.....

I suggest you learn what the word "zero" means.

 

[Timothy A]

I suggest you learn what the word "zero" means.

Is that less than 1?

 

[ARM]

Oh come on. I know you know that humor is a thing.

Kind of like the ridiculous buyout clause in the Wisconsin football coach's contract.

 

[wildfire]

Frustrating for so many reasons. Girls hockey is growing here and it’s hard to even suggest new fans even go watch a game there due to the dysfunction and inequity of the rink.

The fact Frost was let go signals a change in the standards for women’s hockey. That should extend to rinks too.

I don’t want OSU to lose Muzerall; she’s helping drive growth of the game here. Not to mention one of the best coaches in the country. Ideally this would be a wake up call for OSU to build a rink. I don’t think it will be, and it will be sad if they lose her. If they don’t, if Minnesota goes another route I hope it emboldens calls for a new rink in OSU, by the coach herself.

Put the men's team in the tin can and funding for a new arena would be found before Christmas.

Idk, all that school cares about is football.
