Being hired by Scott Woodward or winning the lottery?

Woodward getting kick backs from coaching agents? Or just overly driven/enthusiastic to spend other people's money?

I want to note that, while some folks have tried to absolve Woodward of the blame for Jimbo's buyout, the liquidated damages provision that ended up requiring A&M to pay Jimbo $77 million was in the original contract negotiated by Woodward in 2018. Woodward agreed that if A&M ever terminated Jimbo, then A&M would have to pay Jimbo his full compensation due over the course of the contract, with no mitigation requirement (seek other employment).

Now, of course, I would hope that some lawyer who drew this up told Woodward that was a bad idea, but having put it in the original deal, there was no prospect that Bjork could get that provision changed to protect A&M when he gave Jimbo a raise and extension in order to keep Woodward from luring him to LSU after Scott went back home.
