Social media reacts to Nebraska football extending DC Rob Aurich
Nebraska football defensive coordinator Rob Aurich agreed to a two-year contract extension on Monday afternoon. Multiple media outlets reported this. The defensive coordinator is currently on a three-year contract. It is unknown whether the new deal will add to the current contract or if it is two additional years. Aurich has been a catalyst in reshaping the defense. They allow only 17.8 opponent points per game, 17th in the country. Their 292.1 opponent yards per game is 14th in the nation. They allow 4.6 yards per play, 19th in the country. In addition, the unit is excellent at preventing third-down conversions. They have a 27.36 opponent third-down conversion rate, which is third in the nation. Aurich joined the program from San Diego State last December. It will be interesting to see if further staff moves follow. Nebraska has undergone a series of coaching changes over the past couple of days, and this extension at least adds some stability moving forward. The announcement Matt Rhule announces Rob Aurich has signed an extension to stay with NU two more years. He already had a 3-year contract. We'll see if it's just a new 3-year deal or what amounts to 2 additional years.
