Buyout is being reported at $5.2 million

[hm101]

Its in strongs best interest to work a deal with USF. He is failing hard and will never coach again  save for a low level team as it stands - this is an abysmal fall from inheriting a top 20 taggart team to this. Walk away, recoop, and coach again somewhere else next year. Cause going from 11-2 to 2-10 means your career is over.

Has Kelly tweeted out his Stay Calm and play to your strengths tag line yet?

So far, it looks like VPoA M. Kelly has been doing the right things for USF, and doing them in his own (and what seems to the the right) time.  I'll keep faith with that for now.

His head coaching career may be over but he'd still be wanted as a coordinator. He could leave now or leave at the end of his contract and still be in the same position. Head coaching failure doesn't necessarily translate to failure as a coordinator. Charlie may be the next enrollee in Bama's program for misfit head coaches.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Charlie end up at bama in a defensive coach role. Saban has a long history of taking failed head coaches and giving them another shot as a coordinator at bama

When are teams going to learn that it’s beyond stupid that the coaching is the thing in football that gets guaranteed contracts? It’s stupid and teams pay for it more than they don’t, just say no!!

 

You can't play with the big boys if you don't spend like one.  So you can't crow about how you belong in a P5 but then complain about the size of the stakes at the table. $5 million is the price of one season for an upper end P5 coach.  If you're balking at the size of the big blind, it's time to find a new table.

It's one of those Catch-22's.  You can't spend like you are in a P5 unless you are in a P5.  TV revenues don't allow us to pay five million for a head coach.  We are already sitting at what you are calling "new table".  It is called the AAC.

We are that low level team.
