I know you have to do what you have to do to win and It Just Means More, but these salaries and buyouts are ridiculous. There is no reality where coaches like Ed Orgeron and Will Muschamp deserve tens of millions. The only coach who is worth his salary is Saban.

If you're going to run a high pressure league and fire coaches with winning records, then it's going to take a King's ransom to attract men to these jobs. Schools and fans essentially have no loyalty to coaches. It's not like the Shug Jordan days when you can have a cold streak and keep your job. High Pressure + High Demand = High Salaries.

You'll never again see a Gerry DiNardo situation, with a coach taking a job in the SEC on the cheap because it's his dream (even going so far in DiNardo's case to buying out his own contract from Vanderbilt).
