Our athletic department doesn't seem to be very good at structuring contracts that are beneficial when things go sideways with coaching hires. The fact that those in charge can't or won't learn from previous mistakes (CPH rollover renewal debacle), puts us way behind the 8 ball when we have to make a major coaching change, so something has to change. 7 years for unproven is just going to cost us more, and it's going to get worse before it gets better. Just my $0.02Its really a BS argument "there were zero coaches who would take this job on a standard 4 year contract." And to say otherwise is an insult to everyone's intelligence. Maybe 7 years is what it took to get a sitting head coach but I have no doubt Tech could have hired an ACC-level coordinator, we couldn't have had worse results...
