Brian Kelly just got fired. He’s owed like 50 million. Franklin is owed like 50. Wasn’t Jimbo like 80 or something stupid like that?
Yep to all the above. I think that's what Dan Patrick and his guest were addressing. They used the Cignetti contract as an example. Instead of guaranteeing $95 million over 10 years, they were suggesting that they guarantee a lot of money upfront and for shorter amounts of time. $15 million a year would have made Cignetti the highest paid coach and IU would only be on the hook for $45 million. They can either renew him or part ways with little to no payout.
The guy being interviewed was saying that he was talking to a Hollywood agent about how their contracts have changed with streaming and other things evolving in the movie business and saw parallels with college football coaches.
@boogie next man up son. you have to win. in the south. you have to win....
@mcm666 you guys are really going to be bitching when your coach gets plucked.
I am loving it. My life since the beginning of football season has been insane. New house, moving, going to IU football games, Disney cruise with the grandkids. Trump winning. I don’t even check the chats anymore.Watching IU football all these years, I thought blowouts were boring. I am man enough to admit I was wrong, for some reason they are a lot of fun.
I can’t think of anything more shocking in sports. It’s unreal
@old-crescent where are you???? You been loving this?!
and I still hate the format of this board
I’m doing well and I hope you all are, too. Has anyone died here lately?
