$18.6 million after Dec. 31.

That's why you don't promote your baseball coach to be the AD.

Maybe he knew what he was doing after all! Sorry about your AD.

It could be worse. You could have Phillip Fulmer as your AD.

Ray Tanner is the worst AD in America. Caslen being backed by McMaster gives him the political capital to fire Ray.

Schools are much too quick to the draw these days.

What coach is going to be willing to go to South Carolina and produce results like Saban and Smart in such short periods of time? Carolina doesn't have the traditions, money, and recruits like those and others like them have.

Muschamp just has more work there to do and it isn't easy for anyone (ask Tennessee--and they do have the traditions, money, but lacking recruits) these days to get upright and compete in this conference on a successful level year-in and year-out.

If Carolina was competing in the ACC, it'd be a whole lot easier....gotta give Muschamp more time.

Now that Sleepy Joe Alleva is gone, you may be right.

Auburn’s last President says that those are rookie numbers.

Call Leach and ask him if he wants the job and wait until the end of the season to fire Boom. Get a jump on the others. Leach can finish the season up at WSU and be recruiting for Cocky while most of the rest of us are practicing for bowl games. Sweeten the pot for Leach by offering some of that money if he plays balls and waits on the announcement.

I like Boom but this is a guy who in year 3 at a program went 4-8 with 9 5* and 35 4* players. He's had at least 5 OCs in his 7+ years as a HC now and yet the results are always the same.

It’s a good gig to be head coach in the SEC. You are set for life no matter what happens.

Tanner was set to hire Smart before his dream job UGA inexplicably opened up. That’s not bad management. Thar’s just bad luck.

These buyouts are obscene.
Run a program into the ditch and get paid while fans and players suffer.
CEO craters a company has golden parachute while workers who lose their jobs following same CEO’s “vision” gets nothing.
It’s a crazy system.

I say if you perform poorly you’re fired for cause therefore no payoff.

1) Coach at a school that can and will pay you a lot of money.

2) 80,000 seat stadium that has traditionally been packed even in bad times.

3) Fan expectations nowhere near the level of other SEC programs.

4) SC is a great state to live.
