Message: [QUOTE="stamfordhusky, post: 3952080, member: 649"] One of Geno's previous contracts did indeed limit a buyout to him taking another Head Coach position. But Dan Hurley's URI contact called for him to pay a buyout if he terminated the agreement to "accept other employment as a college basketball coach" - not necessarily a head coaching position. And many D1 contracts call for a buyout ("liquidated damages" or "separation payment") if the coach terminates the contract for any reason - regardless of whether they take a new coaching position. For example, look at the contacts at Ohio State, Tennessee, Wichita State, and Nevada for their men's coaches: [LIST] [*][URL='http://media.cleveland.com/osu_impact/other/Chris%20Holtmann%20Employment%20Agreement%20-%20Fully%20Executed%20(00334073xB7A09).pdf']http://media.cleveland.com/osu_impact/other/Chris Holtmann Employment Agreement - Fully Executed (00334073xB7A09).pdf[/URL] [*][URL]http://tennessee.edu/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Rick-Barnes-basketball.pdf[/URL] [*][URL]http://mediad.publicbroadcasting.net/p/kcur/files/gregg-marshall-contract-9-24-15.pdf?_ga=1.121980043.1442197626.1452020510[/URL] [*][URL]https://d3el53au0d7w62.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/C-Musselman-Head-BASKETBALL-Coach-15-032-to-20-0401.pdf[/URL] [/LIST] It's harder to find published contracts for mid-major coaches. However I am aware of the terms of two, and in both cases a buyout would be applied if a head coach left for a D1 assistant job. I would guess Valley's contract calls for a buyout - but likely not a huge one. [/QUOTE]
