The buy out is 50% of the remaining contract
If he finishes the year and is dismissed, he will get 4.5 Million on the buy out. Way less than a year salary for a coach of caliber.
Not only that, it's payable over 3 years. Not all up front.
Not only that, should he take a job elsewhere, we get to subtract his new salary at his new stop from what we pay him per year.
Bye bye!

Rejoice!!! Let the heads roll!!!

Very. Horrible hire, but very good contract for MSU

It's not surprising given he was always a high risk hire.

Well at least $$$ shouldn?t be a deterrent. But if the administration is thinking like c34 we?re doomed.

I would be surprised and disappointed if Selmon thought like that.
Selmon is looking to make a name for himself. Not cater to good old boys.

I can't think of a hire that really blows my skirt up. I really don't want a coordinator who's learning to take his training wheels off while in the SEC. But, there aren't many established HC's that are realistic candidates either. I also don't particularly want a retread, I'd rather have a new guy than that. I'd probably land somewhere along the lines of a G5 HC that is trending upward.
My Rolodex of coaching candidates isn't that deep I guess.
Everyone wants to be a beast...until its time to do what beasts do.

I'm with you. I doubt anything actually happens, but if it does I don't even have a wish list this time. Glad I'm not an AD!!!
People keep mentioning Beamer and I'm like meh....Not exciting but probably better than what we have.
Anyway, carry on. I doubt anything happens.

Yeah that would shrink your pool. Sean Lewis might be an interest to you. I like Kinne, just not a lot of HC track record yet. Chadwell but he likes to run it and we know how the AR cult will flood the board, lol.

This is going to turn out just like baseball did
Walk like the King or walk like you don't care who the King is

No coach is going to leave SC to come to State

These are the ones that believe that there is a bottom pit of money for the athletic department to use.

So long as it's a modified AR like that of USC...etc. I want a system that using AR for the base with a TE for 11 personnel and a ramped up run game. This will keep our QB and WR room stacked and we would be preparing RBs for the NFL and that attracts them too.

Worst case scenario we hire Gus Malzahn or Dan Mullen, both of whom are very likely to be an improvement.

And we weren't getting Mike Leach either, right?
Crazy shit happens.

You mean 1) terrible on field performance and loss of the fan base, 2) boosters willing the pay the buyout, and 3) A AD who pussies out because he's not man enough to do his job?
If that's what you meant, I agree it seems likely.

I am just replying on your comment because it reminded me about Tech.
Every school is a little different, but we(the administration) should have looked at TX Tech after Leach left. They brought in Tubberville to "RTDF", and get back to Spike Dikes football (sound familiar??).
They wandered around for years, before bringing Kingsbury back(Air Raid).
Now look at the OC they have Kittney, running Air Raid.
They are an outpost school and realized it after trying to go another direction.
We are too, and need a unique offense from the SEC schools, in my opinion. That is the main reason I was posting so much lately.
