35 million buyout if fired in 2025, but monthly not lump sum Sumlin style. Fully guaranteed contract and buyout would be more reasonable.
Plus another say 15-20m to buy out a coach. Another 10m for staff.
So that's say 30m next year plus whatever they are paying BV.
That's a LOT of money.
That's fucking dumb.
Five seasons ago OU went 9-2, won the conference, won the Sugar Bowl and finished #6 in the AP poll
Four seasons ago they went 11-2 and finished #10 in the AP poll.
OU has been lost since they drank the Kool Aid about how shitty Lincoln Riley was and that the secret sauce at OU was the culture. Then believed they could bring back a guy who had NEVER been a head coach, who put together a staff only slightly better than Charlie Strong did at Texas, then signed him to an extention and now are in the wilderness until they can raise enough to make him go away and bring in someone who is actually good.
4-5 years?! Fuck off.
Being able to have a million coaches and Texan actuelly hiring a million makes it way easier age wise and recruiting wise for him.
If PK and Nansen are on the same page on it and sold Sark then that's good, especially if you are hiring this late into things.
It's pretty clear you don't know who Larry Johnson is. 16 defensive players of the year or defensive linemen of the year in the last 25 years in the b10 is outstanding. He's an incredible position coach and didn't have to
Akina is an incredible coach historically. He just isn't Larry Johnson.
Larry Johnson is probably the best DL coach in the history of the sport. Is in the discussion for greatest position coach in the history of the sport.
Absolutely an outlier at his age.
In 2023 the estimate is that visitors to national parks pumped 26 billion into surrounding areas, supported 415,000 jobs and added 55.6 billion to the economy
Realllly bad fumble luck to lose 5/7 fumbles from those two but 1/12 for bilden and Ewers
6%of fumbles lost by the rest of the team TOTAL, minus Sorrell (1/15)
71% of fumbles lost by Blue and Gibson
Fumble luck is random but that's super super super bad luck for both of them.
Wait. A 5'10" true freshman is bad in pass pro?
I just think people have way way way too high of an expectation for true freshman, especially after seeing Baxter last year.
I see what you are saying but net negative is way too strong.
