Message: [QUOTE="billsin01, post: 1576914, member: 837"] It depends -- For one, his small buyout could save the university money if he struggles massively. We all agree that's a possibility, right? Secondly, he only exercises that buyout if he does enough in two years to get the interest he thinks he'll get from the big boys. Is that a great scenario for us? No, but we will have an intriguing offensive system installed and two years of relative success to pimp to our next coaching hire. Plus, if we love him and he's doing pretty well, there's nothing suggesting that SU couldn't pay him huge money to try and retain him. Anyway, I agree, less than ideal. But how much do you like him as a potential head coach? I think that's really the question. If you think he is truly destined to get offered by all the big boys in 2-3 years, don't you want to get a couple years out of him on the way up? [/QUOTE]
