I'm calling it now. Stoops is going to leave Oklahoma for this gig. It's time.
I think that is only true in an at will severance agreement. These contracts are typically guaranteed service agreements. For instance Uconn was on the hook for ever none of former "Coach" Pasqualoni's buyout, regardless of the fact he is now in the employ of the Chicago Bears. It was written into the deal.
Same thing happened with Schottenheimer when he was fired by the Daniel Snyder in the the early 2000s.
Yup...

Will Muschamp will get a buyout worth about $6.3M from Florida, which WILL NOT be reduced even when he gets another job.
You probably are not familiar with how SA left his OC position at Florida. For some weird reason, he was VERY unpopular with the fans/alums so I find it hard to believe they would entertain brining him back as the HC.
Anyways, I do find it interesting that the conventional wisdom on here at the time SA was hired at BC was that he was a mediocre and uninspiring hire. Now he is mentioned by some here for every major opening that comes up (Michigan, Florida, etc.)
Honest question.....the conventional wisdom on here when BD was hired by Uconn was that that Uconn had the much better coach. Question, knowing what you know now, if you had the choice of either SA or BD for your program, who would you take?
(FWIW, I think your last sentence is spot on.)
