The Michigan coaching lottery

Meechicken is about to enter a world of financial hurt when they fire Hoke. LINK

  • Michigan will have to pay Brady Hoke a $2M buyout.
  • Michigan previously paid San Diego State $1M to buy out Hoke's previous contract.
  • Michigan will have to pay OC Doug Nussmeier an $830k buyout.
  • When Michigan hired Rich Rod they paid West Virginia $4M to buy out Rich Rod's contract there. Then three years later they paid Rich Rod a $2.5M buyout.

This is almost as screwed up as the financial mess Colorado is in. Almost.

Slight difference in the financial backing between Michigan and Colorado. If the season does go down to something like 2-3 wins, booster money will not be lacking to remove whomever in the athletic department needs to be fired. The AD may not survive this either. Shades of Nebraska circa 2007. Only a much worse offense.
