FWST: Del Conte, “I didn’t want that regret”

[HToady]

It means CGP’s, CJD’s, & CJS’s buyouts are now $0. In other words, if any of the 3 want to go, there is no amount due by them or their new school to TCU for breaking the contract. There were clauses in each that said if CDC left, those buyouts disappeared.

That's about the dumbest assumption I have ever heard. Coaches contracts are with the University. The actions of any other employee are immaterial. What if he had died of a heart attack? Does that mean the buyouts go to $0?

I would be happy for the guy except for two things:

His "Loyalty" speech.

In conference, in state competition, I think there should have been a non-compete clause in his contract.

I’d be happy if it was just about anyone but UT or Aggie

 

[Hoosierfrog]

I’m just guessing, but I bet CDC lives to miss the comparatively docile TCU fan base/money men in short order...

 

[Hoosierfrog]

Rice isn't in a power conference, so their position was never threatened. They didn'y really need his friendship after he left there.

The point is, he wasn’t a vocal advocate for Rice either, nor do I expect him to worry about anything but UT. Which of course is his job. Though, I certainly wouldn’t expect him to go out of his way to help TCU either, unless it benefits Texas.

CDC challenge will be when BOR tells him what to do. Because that’s what they do.

I for one appreciate what Chris has done for TCU and wish ne and his family the best. I think it came down to a new challenge and possibly he felt a little stale.

TCU has come to the right decision and JDon will do well for TCU. His background in sports is unbelievable. Secondly, Gary, Jim, and Jamie are very comfortable with him and that is what makes this all possible. As long as I can recall, TCU has made quite a few good personnel decisions and that is not easy to do on a consistent basis.

Everytime I say the future is thundersley bright for TCU, it just keeps getting brighter and brighter. I'm very proud of this school and I know you are too.

Negative.

TCU has passed Texas.

If only he’d flashed the Horned Frog at the podium by accident.

 

[Hoosierfrog]

Felt the same way ever since the news broke.

Collective Frog Nation reaction to seeing that.

Little does he know, politics is what the entire Texas athletic department is. I think he’s a perfect hire for them and will piss off many people along the way. Texas fans won’t like it but there is a reason why they have sucked for so long

Time to move on....old news.

Not necessarily. 2 types of people: The one who heads straight to the strip club after being dumped, and the one who curls up on the couch weeping for a week wondering why he just isn't good enough.

Let the weepers grieve.

Oh boy.

I have a pocket full of ones. Rick’s it is.
