No different than free agency. You jump in or you stay out at your own peril.

We should pay our coach a base salary of 1 million dollars, plus $5,000 per point scored, plus a million bucks for winning the sec, and another million for winning a natty. He would make anywhere from 2.5 for a crappy year up to about 6.5-7m for a national title year. And if we had to buy him out it would only cost a million bucks per year.

TV money allowed the ridiculous bidding wars. Not sure how you put that genie back in the bottle. Stricklin alluded to that the other day.
