$ 900 k for two weeks work

Tenn. has decided not to keep Kevin Steele. Two weeks ago they gave him a two year contract at $ 450 k per year. This is in addition to the sizable buyout he received from Auburn. Good work if you can get it.

These coaches are robbing and they don't need a gun. The mask is required. I guess if you are stupid enough to pay it, they don't mind taking the check to the bank.

Let's not ignore the university's role in this. They hired an expensive guy and then fired him 2 weeks later ?? How many other job opportunities did Steele miss out on for signing with Tennessee ??

I'm not a huge fan of paying players, but when I see coaches making out like bandits.... All of this greed will eventually ruin the game.

I do not blame the Coaches. I blame the Administrators who run football operations at the Schools and the Board of Directors. No one is accountable for these dumb decisions. My goodness! Look at USC with Coach Boom. Did not get the contract signed and cost an additional $2 Million plus. But, its public money so no one cares and no one is held accountable. Just like our Government at State and Federal levels.

I'm sure they paid the Fat guy much more to run the place in thee ground and rat them out. Not a bright group. Just gutless and fearful of litigation

Coaches Shouldn't Make More Than School President But...

They should also have way more job security like in the old days. It should be the norm for head coaches to spend 20 years at a school no matter their record, within reason.

As long as donors are dumb enough to keep sending these universities with #### poor leadership money, it’ll keep getting spent (waisted). Kind of like giving an out of control teenager a limitless credit card and a new sports car. At some point it’s on the idiots providing the funds for the gross mismanagement

Are they paying Steele with cash in a McDonald's bag?

My understanding is that TN must pay Kevin $900k . . .
Jan 29, 2021, 6:48 PM
|
|
But Auburn’s payment to Kevin then gets lowered by the same amount . . . So . . .
My question is, “Does Kevin get a tax write off for that donation of $900K to Auburn’s Bottom line?”

Janet Yellen got $800,000 for one speech to one of the hedge funds that got their ### handed to them this week. This is the kind of BS that’s killing America and killing capitalism because it’s crony capitalism and corruption! And nobody does it better than Democrats! These politicians getting paid millions of dollars a year for speeches what doing nothing but taking legal bribes! Quid pro quo!
