Here's a breakdown on Pittman's buyout. Way less than I thought.

Just thought I would share since buyout amounts can be confusing.

Pay the man

Pittman is due just 75% of that total if he’s fired and the team’s record since the start of the 2021 season is at or above .500. Right now, following the loss to Mississippi State, he’s 18-16. On the other hand, if Arkansas were to lose the next three games and he drops to sub-.500 since 2021, the buyout would then drop to just 50% of the total he’s owed.




He will finish 19-19 if he loses out in SEC but wins the FIU game, meaning it will cost Ark $16M to fire him at year's end.

He loses to FIU, he's gone the next day for $11M.

Yes. But not til after the season.

Sam is a likable guy, we can’t fire him midseason, people like him. No one gave a shite about Chad. We won’t do it after a game on the field, the Bielema blubbering bullshite made us look bad.

agreed to an extent. But we were trying to show how serious we were about winning, and having a winning culture. We demanded better and fired mediocrity on the field. Then fricked around and hire chad. Yep, we showed the world alright!

If he loses to FIU at home, he will probably get Bert'd.

Before today I would've laughed at the mere thought of this. FIU just got their first win of the season last Saturday I think...

But if we play like we did today, we probably even lose to fricking FIU at home. 3 points at home, during homecoming, against the 111th ranked defense
