If you click on the salary with the *, it states 2015. I suspect it is 1-2 million $ more now. In part due to the Baylor thing.

not that much bigger-if he gets SMU to a Bowl with 7 wins he'll get paid 3.2 million+ either by SMU or someone else

I thought he was closer to 3 million.

I really hope we increased his buyout amount at least to the point for him to agree where SMU would get a large sum of money for the next coach and assistants.

buyouts almost always go down as the contract progresses

That is what was discovered with the Arkansas coach. Lawyers got into it and found that rather than $15,000,000, due to a reducing scale it is actually closer to $5,000,000. If he does not beat Ole Miss, that will be $5,000,000 spent.

Meltdown? More like strategy but Stallion is probably right with it going down as it progresses. I was just hoping during the contract extension that they upped it.

Who pays for the forklift - him or the university?

There are plenty of disgruntled fans to lift even him.

I've heard you have to be strong to live in Arkansas, but that would be an impressive feat.

Is that Morris' landing spot?

Can’t see it. Of course the ignorance of UA fans, their top choices are Gruden and Janes Franklin. They are also saying Spurrier which could be a possibility.
