Gave up 45 points and 636 yards to Sam Houston State.

quote:

Kingsbury's contract now runs through the 2020 season and will pay him $3.1 million starting in 2015. He will receive built-in annual raises through the life of the contract that will eventually raise his total pay to $4.1 million in 2020.


quote:

Kingsbury is set to earn $22.9 million in base salary and rights fees through the life of this new deal, with up to $17.1 million of that being guaranteed if the university terminated him without cause. The contract allows for a maximum of $1.5 million in bonuses per year.


quote:

If Kingsbury decides to accept another coaching position during the life of this contract, his buyout will depend on whether he leaves for another college program or for the NFL. His college buyout starts at $3.25 million in 2014 decrease over time until it plateaus at $2 million in 2019. If at any point Kingsbury leaves for a position in the NFL, his buyout will be $1.5 million.


quote:

That contract included a hefty buyout that would’ve given Kingsbury $7.3 million at this time if Texas Tech had fired him without cause. If Texas Tech fires Kingsbury without cause, he’s owed 100 percent of his guaranteed money for 2014-16, 75 percent of his guaranteed money for 2017-18 and 50 percent of his guaranteed money for 2019-20.

It's worth it for grown men to brag about how pretty their coach is.

Kingsbury started 7-0. Since then, he's 6-13.

How much do they have to pay him if they fire him? I don't see that in the OP.

He won a lot of games at first on Leach's talent.

The good ole boy network shot themselves in the foot when they fired him. Worst decision ever. They'd be winning conference titles now.

If he put as much into his coaching as he does his appearance he'd be the GOAT.

Their first 7 games were just insanely easy, TCU and WVU were probably the best teams they played and they both finished 4-8. Texas St. had the best record, they finished 6-6.

He CANNOT release all that handsome on the female populace without the eye shield. He's like that X-Man with the eye power thing in that regard.
