It is if they want to keep Jimbo. There's nine more years on that contract and nothing contractually holding him there.
9 years, you think Jimbo's planning his exit already?

Well the job is taken here, and Alabama would go after Dabo.

So you don't think a bilateral buyout which is contained in most contracts is a big deal?
No, especially in this case

If it isn't, why don't wee see far more of these unilateral buyouts?
Well maybe because other situations are different, dare I say context matters?

The buyout s a pretty big mechanism to help protect the school.
Again it depends on the situation this is why you look at these things individually instead of treating every situation like it’s the same.
A school with more limited resources hiring an up and coming “hot” but unproven coach having a big buyout may make sense given the risk of leaving for a better job for more money is much greater. Think Matt Campbell at Iowa State

Please post our offensive statistics, and how they compare to the rest of the country.
There are SO many variables in the passing game.
1) Can the WRs get loose and make all the standard catches.
2) Is the OL winning almost all the pass protection battles? Or losing most of them.
3) Does your OC have you in a scheme that is conducive to to high-percentage targets, or low-percentage targets.
4) Does your OC pass closer to 600 time a season or 350 times a season.
5) Is your schedule loaded with NFL caliber DBs or not so much.
etc & etc
So if you want to see horribly skewed QB stats, Google away! Be my guest!

I can almost guarantee he will not be there til the end. One way or another.

Theoretically or realistically? I suppose the chance of him leaving for LSU could be a mild concern given his past interest in the job and ties to Woodward but that would also require a) That LSU completely tanks this year and next or b) O bolting for another job

I doubt he’s want to replace Saban and they will have other candidates and no not Dabo
quote:
shite, the Cowboys job might tempt him in mid season and nothing holding him back
Aside from never showing any interest in the NFL, having no ties to Jones/Dallas and Dallas not paying him $100M sure.
Then again he might decide to run off with Ricky Williams follow Lenny Kravitz on your and smoke weed, nothing stopping him

And Orgeron will make one hell of an HC for some other SEC school. (South Carolina? Auburn?)
And will Jimbo be fat and happy for 8 years in BR? Or will he field championship teams here? Who really knows?
Maybe in 20. Maybe in 21. But I think he's coming. Just my opinion.

Does your almanac tell you that Biff

If he’s not there in 10 years that means it didn’t work. That doesn’t mean it wasn’t worth a shot.

There’s basically zero chance those both happen. If Fisher comes to LSU that means O got fired which would mean be didn’t do good job here. Little chance USCe hires a 2 times failed coach and no way Auburn would.

When's the last time a coach has ever gotten a third job without winning at least a division title?
EDIT: Lane Kiffin, his best friend. So it could happen.

Not if some billionaire booster has a boner to bring Jimbo to BR. And from what I gather, a few do.

You seem to have finally picked up on something.
If he's not winning titles in 5 years, A$M will eat the 28-35 million buyout, or highly encourage him to look elsewhere. He's s contract is fully guaranteed though. They aren't investing that much for anything less.
Either way, with Woodward gone, I don't see Jimbo and the Aggies as a long term relationship

You act like his recruiting ability is something new.
A bunch of SEC schools had 9 years to hire him after OM and didn't.

Recruiting ability is not some rare thing. The sport attracts people good at recruiting.

They don't have to eat anything to my knowledge. If Jimbo leaves for LSU, A&M owes nothing. But A&M also gets no buyout money from Jimbo or LSU.

Ok, you ask Auburn fans what they'll do if their administration tries to hire our coach.
3rd P5 job without winning a single division title? Not gonna happen.

It's a great gig for Jimbo. He doesn't even have to win at A$M to collect all 75 million. It's all guaranteed money, no settlement. But if he and the school get sideways, he can walk away any time he chooses.
