What gets me, and I think it's from my military background, is when you screw up you have to be accountable for your actions. Correct me if Im wrong, but I have not seen any accountability for these undisciplined shite shows other than Kevin Steele after the MSU loss.

It’s why I want contracts structured as $2 million base and performance bonuses from there.

Nattie 6 million
SEC title 3 million
SEC west 1 million

No other bonuses.

Yeah and no large buyouts. If a coach threatens to leave, let him go. There will always be other coaches out there.

No contracts longer than a max of 3 years. At the end of 3 years contract is negotiated at 1 year increments if performance is up to par.

If you want something more reasonable that coaches may actually consider


Base - $2mil
Tack On Amts

9 Wins - $1mil
10+ Win - $2mil
SEC West - $1mil
SEC Title- $1mil


NY6 Bowl- $0.5 mil

CFP Appearance- $1mil
CFP Final - $1mil
CFP Champ- $2mil



Natty + SEC Champ - $11mil
CFP non Champ + SEC - $8-9mil
SEC Champ Non CFP - $7.5mil
10+ Win Non SEC Champ - $5-6mil
9 Wins - $3mil



Buyout = Base x Remaining Years

All first contracts for coaches should be heavily reliant on incentives until proven otherwise. That's the way most business contracts are negotiated that I've been around. You get $x base pay and $x if you hit goal A. $x if you hit goal B. And $xxx if you hit goal A&B.

I would live to hear the rationale that was presented for the current contract. Any person I've done business with would have laughed and told everyone they know not to even take meetings from Sexton/Gus.

That’s good and all but when other schools do the same shite that we did (guaranteed money heavy) we won’t have a snow ball in hells chance to attract a good coach to Auburn.

The problem isn't hiring assuming we are hiring an up and coming non P5 coach or coordinator


It is that if that coach is successful, the coach would renegotiate their deal as a first priority.

Probably because those people's business doesn't have that labor market dynamics. A successful coach has all the bargaining power.

For example, if Nick Saban asked for a $2mil raise today or he'd walk, you better believe that Bama would be opening their checkbook

Just look at S&P 500 CEO compensation. It is very similar
