And that's why we're going to buttfuck Kentucky dry and teach their little football program what time it is.
EDIT: He's been in the NFL with Spags at STL, but not as a Chief. And that's really all that matters. [Reply]

Matt House was supposed to be the next linebackers coach for the Chiefs. He won’t be.
The University of Kentucky confirmed Saturday that House will remain defensive coordinator at the school. The Wildcats had the nation’s sixth best scoring defense last season, and Josh Allen is projected as a high first-round choice in the 2019 draft.
Terez Paylor of Yahoo Sports reports that Kentucky had a change of heart after agreeing to a negotiated buyout and decided not to let House of his contract. Paylor added that House wanted to join the Chiefs.
House was on the Rams’ staff all three seasons that new Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo was the head coach in St. Louis.
The Chiefs will renew the search for a replacement for outside linebackers coach Mike Smith, who left to join the Packers in January. Inside linebackers coach Mark Deleone also departed, joining the Bears in the same capacity. [Reply]
Matt House's contract runs through June 30th, 2020. He makes a base of $650k per year or $54,166.67 a month. Here is his buyout language below. pic.twitter.com/sG9fcWbgwi
So House was the DC of the 6th scoring defense in the nation. That means there were 5 others with better defenses. Go get them Clark. Get them all. [Reply]

Chiefs came in and offered a job. He was interested. Kentucky came back and said ‘what if we give you a nice fat raise?’ Talked it over with his family. Maybe they like it there and decided they wanna stay there for now? It’s not like he’s not gonna get another NFL opportunity again. Maybe he waits for a DC position to be offered with an NFL team. He seems to want to go back to the NFL. :-)
So he’d rather stay in KY and never coach for a championship, vs come to KC and coach for a SB contender? [Reply]
I think people are making some assumptions here. House is making 650k a year at UK. They buyout could reach up to $300k worst case scenario . I just think that is overpriced for a position coach. If I’m the one spending the $$$. https://t.co/ehp98TvlIz

I gotta agree with this. I don't know what LB coaches receive in the NFL, But what he's making a a DC plus the buyout seems kinda high to match. [Reply]

What price is too high to pay for a potential Super Bowl? [Reply]
