Hugh Freeze just locked down a crazy eight-year contract extension with Liberty that will run through the 2030 season and see him earn $5 million per year...

For some reason, this story makes me think of the "little baby Jesus" scene in Ricky Bobby, where Ricky says the blessing. "Thank you, little baby Jesus, for this fat, six-figure contract in a football backwater where I get SEC money to play AAC competition. All in your name."

Never cared for his hollier than thou crap. Then gets busted calling hookers for him and his players. His excuse was “wrong number” but it was like 8 times. Anyways, college sports is dirty, has been dirty for years so why not. You can pretty much overcome any scandal besides racism and beating women. why Art Briles don’t get a job it Urban Meyer will be a head coach in 2 years.

It's more expensive to NOT pay a good coach than it is to pay one. A bad program loses a ton of money.

Man that's a lot of money for a small program, but good for Hugh.

Actually, Liberty does indeed have huge cash reserves. They have turned into one of the largest online degree providers in education. They set a record last year for on-campus students and online enrollment is well over 100k year-to-year. They have made massive campus and sport facility improvements. Regardless of what you might or might not think about Liberty, they have a plan and are flawlessly executing it.
