I wouldn't be surprised if someone clips jimmy Sexton. Those numbers are insane.

Notice that you don't see Jeremy Pruitt (fired January 2021) on the list. His extension, signed in 2020, would have expired on January 31, 2026. All it took was a freaking Show Cause to save Tennessee $12.8 Million.

Hire a solid coach
Pay the players
Stack our roster

$148 million of that is attributed to the same a-hole.

LSU could have kept Eddie O and let him finish out his contract.

After all, the results wouldn't have been that much different.

All this LSU this LSU that on buy out of coaches and TAMU has just ONE coach that the buy out is more than the two from LSU.

You would of thunk that LSU had the worst deal after all the stuff posted that last quarter of 2025.

And it would've been due within a week of his departure if he hadn't of re-negotiated the buyout.

One of the things that will absolutely tarnish Barnhart's legacy with him stepping down this year. Would've been worse if Cal hadn't of landed at another school, getting us out of his buyout.

You HAD money to do that. Now you have to pay $60 million in buyouts and another $20.5 million in revenue sharing.

Woodward definitely should be getting a kickback from Sexton.

I mean it's mostly your top 3 schools making up the vast majority of it with KY & FL getting some big assists.

Texas A&M: $77
LSU: $70.8
Auburn: $52.6

Already over $200

Kentucky: $38
Florida: $33

The other 4 don't really count especially Mason & Arnett. Pitboss & Coach Boom are reasonable compared to the other chicanery
