That’s $12.5 million, guaranteed, whether he coaches one game, one year or all five seasons. The only way Weis would be owed less would be if he were fired for cause.

According to KU athletic director Sheahon Zenger, such a contract is the price you pay for hiring a high-profile coach and is common throughout athletics. If anything, it further condemns the fact that the previous administration offered Gill a similar deal despite being an unproven head coach with a losing record.

The contract for Weis, like it was for Gill, is fully guaranteed and there is no buyout written into the contract. #KUfball

Wow.  Zulu and KU confirmed retards.  All of them. 

No one even knows how this hire will ultimately work out, but Zulu should be fired just for this given what happened with Gill.

KU should have fired Zulu immediately upon Malzahn taking the Arkansas State job.

Interview with Weiss in the Chicago Tribune today:


http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/college/cbsports-20111213-charlie-weis-qa-kansas-,0,3849598.story
He comes across as a complete ND tool in that interview. what's the point of even doing the interview if you're just going to explain to everyone why you sucked at ND? It's not like Ku is going to go steal a bunch of recruits from Chicago
:facepalm:

They'll get some recruits from there.  KU, as a university, does pull a high number (relatively speaking) from large cities in the Midwest like Minneapolis, Chicago, Dallas, etc.  It's a fall back for kids that want to go out of state but can't get into elite, private schools (not joking).

replace "elite, private schools" with their local state schools, and you're right. They are definitely Big Ten rejects.

KU fans on twitter saying this contract is better than Gill's because it isn't all due immediately upon firing.  "They just keep paying the monthly checks to him until the contract runs out if he is fired early".  Pfft.

Remember when we hired FHCRP and he said and did all the right crap for the first 9 months on the job and everyone was super excited about him?

Weis is screwing KU fans out of what could have been the best 9 months of his tenure by saying all the wrong things.

Life insurance was in the contract where it wasn't w/ turner.  Prob more to do w/ Weis being a horrible out of shape stress machine that sweats bacon grease and Preperation H.

I'm sure Wal-Mart bringing lay away back provided inspiration to thinking this was some how a better deal than being a lump sum chump.

if VK ends up at KU, I'll   :chainsaw: him.

Supposedly VK left emaw because he didn't like the hours.  Sounds perfect for the crew Zulu is puting together.  Happy hour is going to be fantastic at The Track Club.
