"They had to have worked out a new deal or something.Can't believe they would just give away 7.5 million instead of waiting a few weeks"
Think they might have done that?
I think there are three possibilities
1. The vibes just got so, so bad, and the school just paid that much for feelings. (Possible in this crazy world, and if it's the case, speaks somewhat poorly of that admin)
2. A set of super rich boosters vented their feelings, and the admin said "If you want him gone that bad, you can cut that check today"
3. They went to him, said "You're gonna be out. We can make you coach three more games, then fire you, or if we give you a few 100 grand, you'll take the lower rate and we split now."
The latter two options both make sense. If it's the first, and you don't land Urban Meyer, we'll be talking within five years about what a comical failure Trev Alberts is. Simply put, there's no part of wooing 99 percent of coaching candidates that has to happen the last 3 weeks of September.
