    Most aren't like that.

    Looked up news of the old contract. Apparently he's due 60% of the remaining contract if he's fired. If that's still the case...then wow. The 900K is if he's hired away. You are correct.

    Man WSU fucked on that one. If he is good and someone steals him, they get dick. But if he sucks they still owe him a load of money even if they fire him.

    Bull Moose and Leech have pics of the university president at a donkey show.

    No other logical explanation for tying up 5 years of salary (even at 60%) on a guy who hasn't had a winning season yet. Or an AD whose contract runs through the same year who has yet to run an annual budget in the black.

    I am going to tell my kids to either take up welding or get into sports management/coaching. Easy money.

    Flat out wrong.

    Leach is due 100% of his remaining contract (just rolled over) if fired but, Leach only pays 60% of one year base salary if he's hired away to coach like at Florida or USC or something.

    Maybe you are Mike Leach contract clause superiority guy. But what I read in the Seattle times, and the link above do not agree with either of what you said.

    I know there's a joke here about being extended in my sweatpants, but I am not creative enough to make it.
