Yep

Your football coach is worth more than $12 million a year if they’re winning.


But how we’ve gotten to the point where we pay these guys this money to sit at home is insane

What’s the buyout for him to leave? New contract means nothing if that number isn’t cost prohibitive.

His old buyout was $10M if he left for another job after December 1st.

Reports are the new buyout has been raised to $20M. That amount probably decreases significantly over the next couple of seasons.

Cig made me eat my words this season, thought there would be a drop-off from last year. Cool to see a historic doormat program rise to be an actual player in CFB.

Probably also doesn't please the 10 students on campus that read the student newspaper.

It will be interesting to see what they do after building through the portal 2 years in a row. The real elite programs still build through the prep ranks and supplement via the portal.

Built he’s only in year 2 so maybe he’s building that war chest of young players over time. Another interesting thing I read this week is Cig seems to be better than everyone else on finding talent in the portal that other coaches aren’t as high on. After how many years does it turn into “Indiana and Cig are on him, he must be good” and that advantage gets eaten up.

Meh you can always find cause.

It always ends in a settlement because that’s so vague

Indiana has always sucked. So it's not a huge deal if he fails long term
