Making this kind of money, he has 4 years to win a natty or he's gone. Has to make a NY6 every other year at an absolute minimum or he's gone. Prob 3 out of every 4 years. Even that wasn't enough for Dan to survive one down year. Jimbo is the only coach who can get paid like that and turn in 8-4, 7-5, and 8-4 three out of four years (with the second most resources in the country).
Yes. He will hear the heat from fans and weather. Times have changed, college football is way more competitive and will be more so in the future. No way do I think he nor Riley are $95 million coaches.
