Their athletic boosters pay for this, not the students.   The real question is how many times can they dip into that well before their athletics boosters say enough is enough?

The do it big in Texas.

Jimbo was "all hat, no cattle".

It was kind of amazing that both universities fired their coaches after that game.  It's a "lose - lose" situation.

LOL ..... Didn't even realize that. That's got to be a pretty **** rare occurrence for a non season ending game.

I mean he didn't move Tamu forward or backwards except in recruiting. It will be interested to see how many recruits decomitt and his recruits transfer to greener pastures. Everyone gets another free transfer so some of these kids have two free transfers without sitting out and all have at least one because he was fired.

When did they change it to a free second transfer without sitting out?

If your coach is fired you get another free transfer without sitting a year. So you can have two free transfers. I heard it sports radio there a window that opens up for players coaches that are fired and they can get a free transfer.  I googled it and can't verify it from a source. I am not sure if it went through or not.
