Message: [QUOTE="007, post: 5606342, member: 393"] I fully expect that no one is going to be able to change your mind or convince you how out of touch the idea of Nate Oats is. So against my better judgement - which is not stellar to begin with - do you understand that Nate Oats has a current buyout of [B]$18 million[/B]? That is one of, if not the most expensive, buyouts for a basketball coach anywhere. He just signed an extension into 2030. Between his buyout and his salary, those negotiations will likely start around $25 million and this on top of whatever NIL guarantees he will certainly demand. His salary compensation is only a small piece of what it would cost SU. And, SU is already struggling to meet the revenue share obligations, even with reasonable HC salary contracts. That "first call" from SU is never happening [/QUOTE]
