Pay him 2.5 million and have 7 million more per year in NIL. Overpaying just so you don’t look like you made a cheap hire is the dumbest thing you see consistently in college athletics.

Overpaying Pope for a few years is a slow play for the next coach that will be the one they want. Just look at Billy Clyde hire, got the fans expectations lower so easier to hire Cal next. Few extra million a year and the top tier keep you on the radar.
