We are the only SEC schools that are limited to 4 year contracts. The reason other schools have defined buyouts is because they make these ridiculous 6-10 year commitments locking up $25+ Million. It makes sense for them to limit their damages, and at the same time provide an out for the coach. The 4 year limit on our contracts essentially serves the same purpose.
