This is the way the CFB world works now.
Pelini just got fired after winning no fewer than 9 games since 2008. He got his first raise ($425k) after 3 years and a 29-12 record.
This is not the way CFB works. This is the way Tennessee's current and inept administration works. We got Butch from Cincinnati. There's no reason we shouldn't have at least a $7mm buyout (I know if we fire the trumpeter we have to pay him $6mm, but I'm not sure what we get if he leaves via quitting or being hired away). That way if he wants to use Michigan's opening as leverage, we can call his bluff. If he does leave, we use the buyout to hire someone who can do more than pay bagmen to bring players in.

The facts are if you want to keep him you pretty much have to give him a raise. The good news is of with Supra posted is true this could be a whole lot worse, it's not that big of a raise and I don't think any of us have a problem with incentive money as long as the results are on the field.
Even if we had a $7 million buyout Michigan could just pay it if they wanted him, hell florida just did for Jim fricking Mcclewain.
(Not that I think Mcclewain's a terrible hire, but he's not worth that kind of cash)
