How many buyouts are FSU and UCLA paying right now
Pretty sure they’re out from under it now but Tennessee was up there pretty recently.
Texas, Florida, Florida State, or Auburn immediately pops in my head
Auburn?
It’s going to be Auburn, isn’t it?
LSU?
WVU? Both football and basketball coaches gone in the same year right?
Arkansas?
Once upon a time, it was Nebraska, but I don't think they're in the Top 20 of buyout payments.
Show me...Arkansas
I’d like to buy an Auburn, Pat.
I think they've paid off most of Gus. Arkie has a body count across multiple sports
Houston?
Louisville
Is this somehow Indiana?
Apple TV is like $9 a month, how do you spend that much on Severence?
Chorm.
Auburn
The answer, and I dont know if this is a weird accounting blip or what, since I'm just reading the chart... is INDIANA
that’s a lot of fired coaches, beyond just the big football number
Also, is there some double counting? eg the track and field and swimming amounts are exactly the same for both Men and Women. Is that one coach for both teams?
Tom Allen's buyout alone was 15 5 million, add in all the assistants and it seems about right?
(15.5)
