FWIW...nothing on the OU fiver boards about Matt turning down $7mil. There really are no other details other than they talked about something at some point.

It might not have been near double digit sources, but it was a couple highly regarded and well placed ones that independently confirmed the details of the offer.

I was out for a bit, do you have a link? That's honestly awesome if it's true and I would love to show my OU buddy that :)

Freeman to ND, Fickell to OSU.

Campbell fumes about being passed over, takes it out on the rest of college football.

Problem is a few years in the Big 12 probably takes the shine off of Fickell, after Matt beats up on him a few times.

Was referring to the cycle winding down with CMC still on board. From turning down 8 mil at Washington, to being in contention at USC, turning down 7 mil at Oklahoma, to ND staying in house, it was a lot of sleepless nights.

Twitter was saying Washington was making a run for Matt. $8 million per is a pretty good run

Not sure what an ISU contract will have for a number, but hoping there's quite a bit more in the pay envelope.
