Landry did not negotiate the package with Kiffin. In fact, he criticized it.
"Jeff Landry criticized high-priced coaching contracts that could lead to large buyouts."
But, you knew that and still are attempting to justify the stupidity of these universities.

There is a specific reason for the daily injection of Ozempic but it is not to make you a head coach.

"Jesus there are some dumb frickers on this message board."

Someone called me?

Yeah. You can't even trust the titties you see in the swimsuit edition.

Finebaum unbiased????
Finebaum has always been the Crimson Tide shill.

The problem lies in the dollars involved.
College sports coaches are the highest paid individuals at the university which counters the entire reason for the existence of higher learning; the advancement of education and logic.

When the AD throws money at his failed football coaches like it was coming from some virtual printer, there is no money left to hire any competent, proven coach in any of the other programs. It is astounding how they came up with the money for Mulkey.
If the coach at LSU basketball is successful, it will only be due to chance and that coaches drive because the money machine broke.

We got it so wrong for the same reason we are going to get it wrong with the next hire; hiring based on past success rather than potential.
And, yes, it includes the current Ole Miss coach. Hiring him is more cash thrown down the toilet.

Nuss had all the potential in the World destroyed by the disastrous failure of his coaches and his acceptance of their misdirection instead of going into another program willing to accept his value rather than attempting ignore his talents and forced him into game plans that were unsuccessful and a football program that could not adapt even after failure was the only product of their efforts.
The University, the coaches and Nuss were all co-conspirers to the collapse of this football program and Nuss bears the bulk of his financial collapse of his future in football and his collapse as a person who was a Heisman candidate one year to one of the worst quarterbacks in Division One football.

Most of us saw the stupidity of hiring Kelly when it occurred but the simple fact that Oregon had given up coaching after he decided there was nothing he could do to surpass his resume of 2019 and tanked the entire program led fans to overlook all of what you described.
The buyout clause by this AD was a lot more than ignorance. It was a designed fraud on the University.

The bottom line is that the person who was arguably the worst head coach to ever field a team in div one coached arguably the best team to ever play in college football.
This leads to the current paradigm that these multimillion dollar salaries and payouts to these coaches is money down the drain when the actual available money should be going to the players.
