I honestly believe he knew his stock would never be higher, and if UC should have a bad year next year, perhaps going 5-7 in the new league, his stock would be worthless.
Don’t be fooled that this came up suddenly. I heard after Coach BK left UC, he had been in discussions for a month with Notre Dame. My suspicions are that CLF knew before the Tulane game he’d be leaving.

I have been fearing Wisconsin since Leonhard got the interim tag as "coach-in-waiting" instead of a contract. Oh well, even with move to Big 12, hard to compete with storied program like the Badgers
Red and Black are more of an Attitude than merely a color combination.
Know every program deals with decommittments
but wonder if the recent ones were made with
inkling this was going down ?
Also, is a million more a year significant enough
to be a motivator here or was there more to it ?

Ten times my annual salary per year is enough. At any salary a 20% raise is good

This whole situation SUCKS.. Next year in the Big 12 it was going to be difficult because this team has never played up to potential and I am wondering just how much improvement there will be. We had a known quantity with CLF. I see loss of commitments and loses thru the portal. Be prepared for another rebuild and a 4-8 team next year.
Good luck Coach Fickell. I wish you nothing but success in Wisconsin. I hope you elevate Wisconsin to the next level as you did here. While I wish you stayed, and brought continued stability. Especially during a transition to a new conference. With all due respect, my only hope is that your replacement is more successful than you. Maybe we will see each other again down the road in a late 2020s out of conference game.
