He negotiated where he wouldnt have a buyout. And accepted the bill on the one from Penn State.
Its what Hyams and a couple other people tweeted I think. Buyout and owing someone their salary to a certain date arent always the same thing here the way I read it. We were only doing 2 (maybe 3?) year contracts on assistants as a policy/rule as well
His was special circumstances. I dont think he envisioned coaching us past two season. He wanted a shot a a HC position and bet on himself.
