In short, we're screwed...
Per ChatGPT:
Dabo Swinney Contract (Clemson)
• 10-year deal (2022–2031) worth $115M
• Avg: $11.5M per year
• No offset clause – Clemson pays full buyout even if he takes another job
Year | Salary | Buyout if Fired (No Cause)
-------|-----------|---------------------------
2024 | ~$11.0M | ~$60M
2025 | ~$11.25M | ~$60M
2026 | ~$11.5M | ~$57M
2027 | ~$11.5M | Remainder of contract
2028 | ~$11.75M | Remainder of contract
2029 | ~$12.0M | Remainder of contract
2030 | ~$12.25M | Remainder of contract
2031 | ~$12.5M | Remainder of contract

I think there's still an Alabama clause also

Somehow the buyout is less and Clemson wouldn't suffer as much

is the only option at this point. That's a challenge I think we're up to. His 3rd row seats at the basketball games could become quite miserable.

Unless, of course one of two things happen:
a) he resigns
or
b) he adapts to the new CFB landscape (aggressively uses the portal) and gets away from the friends and family method of coaching

He has until august 26 to fix the staff and roster. If not, he never will and we are at his mercy unless he realizes he has destroyed his own creation with stupidity, and walks.
But we screwed for now~

You might really move Neff on this if you’d kick in say $50 million or so…

It’s obvious that LSU has far larger resources than Clemson.

Our only hope is that he swallows his pride and finally adapts to the professionalization of college football.
