There's not a whole lot of them that come to mind over morning coffee, but [I]Illinois' Matt Bollant was let go with one year left [/I]on his contract and[I] Jimmy Dykes "resigned"  at Arkansas[/I] with one or two left on his and I'm sure a walk deal was arranged. So two P5 schools were willing to pull the trigger and fork over some money. And I can't quite tell if there were any years left on Cynthia Cooper-Dyke's contract at USC. The Trojans SID sent out the release and it does not mention years left/payout on the contract.

But in general, I'm in agreement with you and think I referenced that in my opening remarks on Boyle (if it wasn't clear enough, my apologies). ADs simply are generally not going to eat train wrecks unless there's something really bad going on and/or if an alum can supply golden parachute money.  Another great example of this is at Boston College, where the progam just keeps slipping downhill every year and zip is done about it.
