re: Coaching Changes Discussion - Chief locked up, what about rest?

Again, language of the contract could be in play there, where he can't make an official announcement until the contract expires. To me it makes the most sense that Durkin would have certain contractual limitations until his game was over.

I have a little insight on these contracts because I actually worked at the TAMU System General Counsel's office during all of the major Fran/Sherman coaching changes. It's insane the small details that are in these contracts and the funniest thing is none of them are the same, even within the same university athletic department.
