And it appears it could have been worse for two coaches

Woodward did not extend Jimbo at A&M...that happened after he left there for LSU...
quote:
At Texas A&M, Woodward would need to fire Kevin Sumlin after the 2017 season. He then lured Jimbo Fisher away from Florida State in 2018, paying him $75 million over 10 years. Woodward left for LSU in April 2019. Jimbo Fisher and Texas A&M finalized a new contract extension in 2021 that would raise his yearly salary to more than $9 million per year and extend the contract through 2031. Woodward had nothing to do with this extension since he was already at LSU.

He can always count on at least two Christmas cards every season.

But he signed the original $75M Guaranteed contract.
Woodward is solely responsible for the current trend of guaranteed contracts and 50M+ buyouts.
