This is partly why the whole coach in waiting thing is stupid. Maryland is looking at paying James Franklin $1million if he's not head by 2010. They also want to can Ralph Friedgen, and would have to pay him $4 million. So to reverse losing trends they would turn around and hire his assistant? Makes no sense. Debbie Yow is their AD and felt like she was in the catbird seat until the governor of MD issued a statement that that $5million total buyout better not be public funds.
AT ND Charlie Weiss is getting millions to not coach. At Virginia, Al Groh is getting donor money not to coach.
I think I have to change my fantasy thread answer. I would like a million dollars not to coach.
