The rewards of failure: Muschamp's cost per win

[Chomper]

Interesting ESPN article re: cost per win for 3 recently fired high profile CFB coaches, including Foley's own Will Muschamp who was paid almost $700,000 each: http://espn.go.com/blog/ncfnation/po...p-earn-per-win

Wow! I know people who could have done that well for much less.

Nick Saban is paid $627,000 per win. It's a dumb narrative.

Nick Saban is about to win a fifth? Just surreal.

The most costly coach is Florida's Will Muschamp, because his contract does not allow Florida to pay less if he finds another job. Counting the $6.3 million nonrefundable bonus, Florida's total investment in Muschamp comes out to $19.3 million.

Salary: $11.36 million
Bonuses: $1.64 million
Buyout: $6.3 million

For his 28 wins, that comes out to a cost of $689,286 per victory.

I'm sure no coach that had one winning SEC season in four has ever been paid more.

We pay our losers well.

There's got to be some sort of way to add in the cost of a loss (to Georgia Southern) who was paid very, very well to come to Gainesville and take a beating....yet managed to walk out w/ a W. That would probably push that total to well over $700K.
