Still though, that contract in and of itself should be a fireable offense for Jeff Long.
Everyone on here knows my opinion about Jeff Long, but regarding this absurd contract, not all of the blame lands on his plate.
He can't/doesn't write this stupid extension with the Foundation's blessings. So, I for one, could care less if these boosters have to write a fat arse check, they are the ones that signed off on it.
My concern would be money hesitation on recruiting our next coach.

He's the one who architected and sold it to the RF and the BOT.
The GOBN/PTB/whatever had its faults, and there were warts aplenty during the Nutt era, but they can come in handy and serve as controls when you have an outsider head coach who underperforms because they're the ones who turn the screws on the AD. Long eradicated that network and/or reduced its power and influence, and this is where it has gotten us.

Ditto. The real worry is that we have to go bargain shopping for our next coach because the donors/Foundation/BOT don't trust Long financially. Granted, it's worst case, but it's a concern nonetheless.
