They don't want to pay his buyout because maybe they are tired of this revolving door of spending millions in buyouts that go to waste.

Coach gets fired, millions spent paying his buyout.

Coach gets hired then fired. Millions spent paying his buyout.

Coach gets hired then fired. Millions spent paying his buyout.

That would get old real fast.

It would indeed get old.

Kind of like many things in life... you can spend a lot of long-term money by being half-assed and cheap over and over, or you can acquire real value and make a good investment once.

But on some level I think our money boosters realize there's enough stupid loyalty in the fanbase where people will pay to watch the product regardless of it's quality, so in this case why try harder?

All you had to do was look at the stands for the FIU game... plenty of people content to just show up and cheer for a laughable product against a laughable opponent with all postseason hope laughably gone.

As long as blind loyalty willingly pays, the money will act accordingly and take as much of it as possible.
