These crazy “hit the lottery contracts if I get fired “ are retarded. It would be hard to care if you knew you were gonna get 20 million dollars if you get canned.
Contracts

Shane Lyons is a douchebag for doing it. What an idiot.
It's like gambling your money and putting your house up as collateral. Shane rolled the dice and lost the house.
It's not Neal's fault they asked him to sign the deal.

Lol- Brown was losing when Lyons extended him. It was absurd to even do a buyout let alone pretend there was a benefit to WVU from it.
Not as big as you think.
if Brown elects to leave on or before Dec. 31, 2024, he would owe WVU a liquidated damages payment equal to 25% of the remaining total salary figure.
A departure in the final two years of the contract (Jan. 1, 2025 – Dec. 31, 2026) would see him owing 12.5% of the total.
If he were to leave following the 2023 season, he would owe West Virginia $3.175 million, which is 25% of the remaining three years of the contract.
If the departure came on Jan. 10, 2025, he would owe $1.075 million to the school.
There’s also an interesting codicil to all of this. Brown’s buyout liability drops to 12.5% from now through the end of 2024 (from the base contract number of 25%) if both WVU President E. Gordon Gee and Director of Athletics Shane Lyons are not in their current positions at the time Brown elects to leave.
He must have hell of an agent.
Shane Lyons should be shitcanned alongside Brown. If he’s allowed to select the next head coach we are in an even worse spot than we are now.
Not to mention Huggins can’t coach forever. Imo it is imperative to remove Lyons immediately
