"I think plenty of people write about the men that surround football b/c that's the expectation. Mothers not only give bodies to the sport, theyβre giving birth to these players. They're also caring for them in a way that's different from the other people around them" - @traciecanada.bsky.social
Total buyouts for 15 fired coaches in 2025: $228 million. That's a record by nearly $100M. Kelly $54M Stoops $38M Smith $33.5M Napier $21M Freeze $15.8M Gundy $15M Wilcox $10.9M Pittman $9.8M Franklin $9M Pry $6M Foster $5M Bray $4M Dilfer $2.4M Beck $1.7M Norvell $1.5M
This year, universities are giving $228 million to football coaches who failed at coaching football so that they won't coach football anymore.
