Coach Martin Working Without A Contract (now it's final)

Quote:
Martin did not a have a formal contract in place on Sept. 23, 2011.

Nor does he have one in place on June 20, 2012.
He's still working under a memorandum of understanding.

Interesting.

This seems to be the way of college sports now. The university and the coach are in agreement, but the lawyers and agents spend months arguing every single line of the contract.

Then the question I would have to ask is how many SEC coaches are working without a contract? If none, why is CCM in this position?

It's part of the contract world. A lot of coaches go through this

Read the article before making dumb statements. In no way is this bad for Tennessee.

The only good thing about this thread is it lead me to the comments on the GVX site. Those things always crack me up. The one about Martin having not got a paycheck since being here is especially clueless.
