FINALLY!! Hudspeth's New Deal Done

[Cajunsmike]

Turbine: The buyout info I shared is for Hudspeth if he decided to leave.

The school would owe Hudspeth his remaining base salary plus contingent premium benefits due in addition to a $2 million buyout in the 1st year, $1.5 million in the second year, $1 million in the 3rd year, $500K in the 4th year and $0 in the 5th year.

If we go 2 and 10 this year, no one should even contemplate a coaching change as we won't pay a guy 2 million dollars to not work for us.

Awesome!

$175 is what the State/University is paying, the remainder is from private donations and the RCAF!!!

Thanks for explaining that part of the buyout that really is a good thing. Joshua, do you think at the RCAF function this Saturday there will be some big announcements?!?

Exactly. The administration has made a commitment to Hudspeth for the next five years.

This deal will make it nearly impossible for those outside of the big-six schools to pry him away.

How do you feel about the big-6 schools that are not located in the South?

Don't see anyone outside of SEC or southern Big 12 schools having a chance with him.

Yeah, you would figure if he goes to any other school than you mentioned above, he would never get his family back. Haha!
