re: Thoughts on the insane buyout

but it is also to protect the coach financially. This isn't a one-way contract.

the fact that it wasn't one way shows how terrible this deal is

O has literally negative leverage. there were literally no 1A schools who were looking at him for HC. he had little to offer and nothing to threaten JA with in negotiations. at worst, we lose a DL coach who recruits (which grow on trees in CFB)

if we said "we want a $3M buyout" what's O going to say? "Ok i'l walk and take a $3M paycut and go back to being DL coach somewhere"

?

no
