Nothing is bothering me by asking a question if there is essentially an end in sight to paying for college coaches.
Well go offer saban 50 million a year if there is no dialing back

At what point do these numbers start to stabilize?
Realistically, schools like Kentucky wont sniff the playoffs and schools are putting up these numbers. Boosters are just ok with that?
The SEC payout on TV money alone is projected to more than double over the next ~5 years as a result of all the conference realignment that is set to happen.
All of these SEC schools are getting a massive injection in cash, and the coaches and agents know this. If anything, these new "market rate" contracts are in line with what restructuring is creating.

He will make $8.7 million a year
Good lord. This shite is out of control. Saban made $8.6 million in 2020 as the nation's highest paid coach. 2 years ago. Now that's the going rate for Kentuckys coach.

I know. Grateful Reb talked to his wealthy booster friends and got word there is no end to the spending.

Booster have money falling out of their pockets. They are super rich and getting richer. To them it's about being an insider.

The ceiling for Kentucky is winning seasons and good bowl games and there is nothing wrong with that. Stoops is a good coach and he might just be there long enough to take the next step.

This is a depressing thought. Mediocrity is the goal.

the extra cost of above average success is well worth a little bit of money saved for mysery and losing.

Some years, it's just not going to work. Staff, players, chemistry, there's a lot that goes into it. This Kentucky team is still decent but still underachieving. At Kentucky. A team going to a bowl is underachieving, but they're still stable. They'll probably bounce back next season although they're gonna lose a few good players. He's worth the money to them, it's a good investment.

Another coach I hope gets a lifetime contract, along with Jimbo and Napier.

You hired Hardin. A coach no one had ever heard of.
