Don't be, the buyouts are excellent
Ugh, I'm scared that I might be forced to coach a college football team at this point

It’s useful to think about things like this in numbers of tenure track professors.

$33M is 358 assistant professors. Or about fourteen percent of the total number of full-time faculty at Michigan State.
SOURCES: Michigan State is firing head coach Jonathan Smith, @theathletic.com has learned.

He went 9-15 in two seasons, including 1-8 in the Big Ten this year. (ESPN first reported).

MSU players meeting called for 2:45. Smith has a $33 million buyout (with offset).

This is a real and proper buyout, not one of those fakes that gets negotiated down. Always be on the lookout for buyout integrity
The decision to fire Stoops is a costly one. His contract calls for a $36 million buyout, all of which is due within 60 days, a result of extensions from Stoops’ winning years.

in english it’s the White House. in spanish it’s la Casa Blanca. does that mean Rick in the movie Casablanca was an allegory for the president?

The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

Non-college football fans, the news of Lane Kiffin leaving Ole Miss for LSU is akin to Phaedra Parks starting in Real Housewives of Atlanta but after controversy, moves to the Married to Medicine franchise only to depart for the Real Housewives of NYC

Same as it ever was; to provide sex for the students, sports for the alumni and parking for the faculty.
LSU is paying its previous football coach over $50 million NOT to coach there while likely guaranteeing Kiffin something approaching double that, all while having an academic hiring freeze and budget cuts across the board. What is the purpose of a university (rhetorical)?
SOURCES: Lane Kiffin is expected to accept LSU's offer to become the Tigers next head coach. Kiffin is set to meet with his Ole Miss team this morning at 9 AM CT. As we reported yesterday morning, LSU has been very confident it was going to land Kiffin. www.nytimes.com/athletic/684...

One thing I learned over the weekend from talking to finance people is that they assume the AI bubble is going to burst and their issue is figuring out when so they can time their trades right.

Lol, Zillow tried to rate the climate risks facing individual properties. The real estate industry *hated* it, precisely because it worked -- it made selling risky properties more difficult. So they rebelled & Zillow caved.

Don't look up!

New Florida coach Jon Sumrall will finish the season with Tulane, through the American championship game and potentially the College Football Playoff.

So Tulane vs. North Texas for a CFP bid, with two head coaches who have taken other jobs.
