Fan Talk (Bobby Hartin) whatever out of Charleston said this afternoon that he didn’t think Muschamp would get fired this year.

I will add that he said that’s his own opinion but he’s a lifelong cluker through and through.

Taggart's Contract:
Sep 28, 2019, 12:42 AM
|
|
"His five-year contract calls for a base salary of $5 million per season:
Date of Hire through Jan. 31, 2019: $5 million Feb. 1, 2019 through Jan. 31, 2020: $5 million Feb. 1, 2020 through Jan. 31, 2021: $5 million Feb. 1, 2021 through Jan. 31, 2022: $5 million Feb. 1, 2022 through Jan. 31, 2023: $5 million Feb. 1, 2023 through Jan. 31, 2024: $5 million
And he is eligible to receive several bonuses:
Win national championship: $500,000 Play in national championship: $250,000 Make College Football Playoff: $250,000 New Year’s Six Bowl: 175,000 Bowl appearance and 7-plus wins: $100,000 Bowl appearance: $50,000 Win ACC Championship: $150,000 ACC Championship appearance: $100,000 ACC Coach of the Year: $50,000 Undefeated season: $100,000 National Coach of the Year: $75,000 Single Season APR over 950: $100,000, APR over 975: $175,000 APR over 990: $200,000 APR over 1,000: $250,000
If Florida State fires Taggart before his contract expires on Jan. 31, 2023, his buyout is 85 percent of the remaining balance. For example, for simplicity's sake, if the Seminoles fire Taggart on Feb. 1, 2020, after his second full season as head coach, they would owe him 85 percent of $20 million, or $17 million.
Feb. 1, 2020: $17 million Feb. 1, 2021: $12.75 million Feb. 1, 2022: $8.5 million Feb. 1: 2023: $4.25 million
If Taggart voluntarily leaves Florida State, he owes $5 million (or the remaining balance if less than $5 million)."
I doubt he's going anywhere soon either!!!

We've discussed Must-coot's buyout numbers . . .
Sep 28, 2019, 12:33 AM
|
|
The $18M isn't going to happen from that broke a$$ institution!!!
"Here are the buyout numbers in Fuente’s contract, with the number first being if Virginia Tech were to fire Fuente without cause. The second number is the buyout on Fuente’s contract if he were to leave Virginia Tech on his own accord.
2019: $15 million, $3 million
2020: $12.5 million, $1 million
2021: $10 million, $750,000
2022: $7.5 million, $500,000
2023: $5 million, $500,000
2024: $2 million, zero
The buyout figures, on both sides, decrease on Dec. 15 of each year."
I doubt he's going anywhere either!!!

Pruitt is the obvious choice.

Pruitt' Numbers would agree . . .
Sep 28, 2019, 12:44 AM
|
|
"When Pruitt arrived in Knoxville in December 2017, he signed a six-year, $22.8-million contract that called for an annual salary of $3.8 million, the combined total of $275,000 in base salary and $3,525,000 in supplemental compensation. He is also eligible for several bonuses:
APR of 945: $50,000 APR of 985: $100,000 AP SEC Coach of the Year: $50,000 AP National Coach of the Year: $100,000 Top 25 in final CFP, USA Today, or AP: $50,000 Top 10 in final CFP, USA Today, or AP: $100,000 Top 5 in final CFP, USA Today, or AP: $150,000 SEC Championship appearance: $100,000 Win SEC Championship: $300,000 Bowl Appearance: $100,000 CFP Access Bowl Appearance: $200,000 CFP Semifinal Game Appearance: $300,000 CFP National Championship Game Appearance: $400,000 Winning National Title: $500,000
MORE: Taggart's Buyout Details
If fired without cause efore his contract expires on Jan. 31, 2024, Pruitt is owed 60 percent of the remaining balance. For example, for simplicity's sake, if Pruitt is fired on Feb. 1, 2020, after his second season as head coach, Tennessee owes him 60 percent of $15.2 million ($3.8 million over four years): $9.12 million.
Full buyout breakdown:
Feb. 1, 2020: $9.12 million Feb. 1, 2021: $6.84 million Feb. 1, 2022: $4.56 million Feb. 1, 2023: $2.28 million
If Pruitt left voluntarily before Dec. 15, 2018, the buyout would've been $6 million. It now decreases by $1 million each year until Dec. 15, 2022."

With the financial crisis they claim that the coots are in now, after making all that SEC money they were claiming to make a few years ago, I would say that Mustcoot would be the last to go bc they can't afford to do what they have done throughout their history, that is hire bad coach, after bad coach or, washed up old coach, over another washed up old coach!!!!

If the prior coach was worth firing
Sep 28, 2019, 6:14 AM
|
|
Why would the next coach, using the prior's recruits be expected to succeed much? How does two years, anywhere, remotely make sense, outside of 'for cause'? A new coach's first recruiting class is generally one of scrambling for what talent remains, but likely half would not be signed under a normal cycle process. Schools certainly throw a lot of money away!

I dont know his buyout situation but I think its Fuente

This is his 4th season and VT has regressed significantly. They've also had tons of players transferring out and stuff. It seems like a toxic situation there.
Bud Foster is also retiring at the end of the year so it would give VT a chance to start fresh with an entirely new staff without having to let Bud go which I'm sure they would be reluctant to do given what he's done for that program.

His buyout is 15 million still this year I believe. He ain't going nowhere unless they have that lying around.

I think an interesting contract clause would be to make the AD that hired the coach, if still employed, have to forfeit 20% of his or her salary towards the buyout for however many years it covers. Then ADs wouldn’t need to come out with a vote of confidence - they would truly be invested in the success of their coaching hire.

Pruitt - Fat Phil is the biggest backstabber in the sport. I wouldn't be surprised if he's at least partially to blame for the ######## in Knoxville.

Can I guess Ray Tanner? I think all 3 mentioned will get fired in 2020 but are probably safe this year. The coot fans are going to find someone to sacrifice and Tanner isn't going to cost $18 million.

The answer is - who doesn't accept mediocrity
Sep 28, 2019, 10:02 AM

UofSuC perpetually lives in mediocrity therefore Moosecramps will not be terminated this year. My money is on Pruitt followed by Harbaugh.
