Gonna be another miss from Isaac’s new account.

Isaac trolling wrong info from the "insiders" with his own wrong info was always the end game here. 

He was simply proving a point.

Alan Huss got an extension this morning...lol every single coach mentioned it seems is getting that...

Iowa State AD also got a five year extension.  So Olt extended and the AD extended.....really doubt the AD is getting an extension and have his prize basketball coach slip away.

Looks like another coaching search has wrapped up:

Anyone been looking at flights in & out of South Bend?

[Hornsby 3,261]

Hopefully this extended coaching search will be the last one for a decade or two.

I hope so but if it's the young hot mid major coach who knows. Those are super risky.

Should be evident that the next hire is a sitting college head coach.

Former Utah guy, it was happening no matter who called Utah.

Too many pages to catch up on, so I’m just going to jump to the end and ask if we have figured out which insider is the most well endowed yet?

I don't think UCLA is going to voluntarily lower his buyout without pushback, no. But Cronin, via his agent and lawyer, has a legitimate case to sue UCLA because nothing in his current contract when he signed his extension says anything about UCLA switching conferences and flying 2000 miles and being on the road for a week at a time every other week. Rather than going to court, UCLA could ultimately agree to a reduced buyout.

 

This is ridiculous, unless the contract explicitly states the conference the team plays in to have any relationship to the rest of the terms outlined - which is incredibly unlikely. The university made a unilateral change in athletic conferences based its perception of perceived value and benefit. Almost certainly it didn’t  change the terms of his contract to coach the team. He can’t just say ‘well, let’s renegotiate my $4M annual and $15M buy out b/c the B1G is much more competitive and will require a lot more travel.  How about we just lower the buyout to $5M and call it even!’

There's written language in his contract that states bonuses for accomplishments and results in the PAC 12, a now defunct conference lol. So what, he's now no longer entitles to any bonuses because he's not coaching in the PAC 12? Cronin has absolutely every grounds to renegotiate his contract. And if UCLA doesn't want too....he has more than a leg to stand on and challenge it in court.

It likely has a separability clause

I think 10 business days would technically be tomorrow. He posted on the night of the 20th unless you’d count that.

I hear you... but the buyout dropped from something over $18M to $4M ($2M if the AD leaves). Serious question: Can you tell me why that would happen?
