He’s under contract for three more seasons after this one. Shame on us if it’s already a done deal without seeing the rest of the season play out. Next year would be the right time, assuming things go as well as they should.

Because college coaches have convinced ADs they can’t recruit without a 5 year deal

Any semblance of success will always result in an extension, which is fine, as long as the buyout is reasonable.

I would wait till after next season for a contract extension. Sure we exceeeded all expectations this year and we could be 10-2 and in a New Years Bowl at the end of the year but let’s see how he can do next season with different expectations. The expectations next year will be 10 wins (if we finish 10-2) and people will expect him to meet that standard. I would see how well he can do with Les Miles like expectations before I extended his contract

as long as there is a clause in it that nullifies the extension immediately if saban leaves bama for any reason

until saban is gone i see no reason to spend large sums of money chasing big name coaches

If Coach O has three years left on his contract, wait until next year. That would seem logical.

Idk hoe this works —- when are extensions typically offered? I mean if you have two years left why would you offer one now given no one will call him to be their head coach.

If we finish the regular season 10-2, I would extend O's contract 2 more years at $3.75 mil, a $250K raise. BUT, I would change his buyout to $1 mil per year left on his contract.

I don’t get the need to rrush an extension now, and I like Coach O. He should still be able to recruit.

So he’d have four guaranteed years??? He’s got two left right? Are people saying extension as to add two years or so they mean alter the contract??

You're gonna look pretty dumb when Jimbo has a couple classes under his belt and we still have no offense.

Question. Why is a buyout out in place? Doesn’t it get done because other teams want your coach? Nobody wanted O. Why in the F would they keep adding buyout clauses?
