ehh...

1. The actual buyout from the AD is close to 6 mill


2. The foundation had a separate agreement for the rest that totaled close to 12 mill

So Arky and the Aggies are paying two coaches a total of $21 mil NOT to coach.

Brilliant!

Bert should use a little of the money to hire a chef that specializes in healthy meals with appropriate portion size. He should also start doing a little weight training and a lot of cardio.

He never seemed to be a dickhead so I don't wish a massive coronary on him.

is it better or worse than what Nutt got when he left?

Didn't Nutt get something in the $4 million range?

All SEC schools have gotten a ton of ESPN money since that time.

I think a lot of the fans in the SEC thought it was a horrible hire but damn.

Really? Say what you want about the Big Ten at the time, but he still won 3 consecutive conference titles at a solid program.

Bert voluntarily walked into a mess and had Arky looking decent by year three. Not saying he was going to be a yearly contender in the West, but it certainly wasn't a horrible hire when it was made and he had them trending upward.

I feel like gagging away a 9-win season last year and the A&M game this year just broke him.

Or she can hang around a little while longer and get it all when that fat bastard drops dead.

Bret Bielama is morbidly obese


He just made $30 million + over six years and is married to Jennifer Hielsberg. I am guessing you would trade with him, regardless of weight.

But still managed to blow out a #10 ranked Florida team the following week. That performance honestly had me worried about LSU's trip to Fayetteville.
