And its not even November, yet. Norvell is a dead man walking and his is $50 million, I think.

Freeze won't survive either, but I doubt his buyout is that high. As we all know, his boss is of Jewish derivation and only buys things off the damaged goods aisle.

The key is not winning, the key is GETTING the 8-10 year big contract. Once you have that, you are basically in retirement for life, winning or losing no longer matters. Jimbo, Kelly, Dabo, they are already spending that money in their minds

We're talking about college football and not the NFL. Of course the coaches make a ton of cash.

If I was an SEC athletic director I would offer coaching job and say you get one million for every win per year. That’s it.

If Lebby would lose a million he may punt it out of bounds or let the play clock run down before snapping the ball with 4 minutes left.

Nobody would take your offer. Not if they could get a big, guaranteed contract elsewhere.

This was totally uncalled for.
