I would be forced to quit watching CFB if that were to happen. They could just change the name of the playoffs to The Tuscaloosa Invitational....
Sure it is, by the very definition of the term. Your post is conjecture, not fact. There is no way to prove or disprove Georgia winning the natty w/o Walker
Jimmy Hyams said Richt's buyout was 4.1 million. Isn't Butch's about three times that? How the hell did we get screwed so hard?
Yes, because Buck Belue was the linchpin of Georgia's offense. Walker was sure lucky to have a legend like that calling the plays....
Another sobering truth- Mark Richt was 10-5 against Tennessee. 5-3 vs. Fulmer, 0-1 vs. Kiffin 3-0 vs. Dooley and 2-1 vs. Butch Jones.
I think Richt had a contract on the table that was unsigned. Could be wrong here but that's what I think is the reason for such a low buyout.
Nonetheless, the dean of SEC coaches, with 2 conference championships on his resume, just got fired with a smaller buyout than we owed [ddiapos].
Mike Hamilton and Dave Hart have certainly done their best to bury Tennessee football and do it in the most mind-numbing, cost effective way.
