Classic co-mingling of Skippy and Leavitt, both coaches that left a wave of people emotionally broken by their departure. Bravo!

Sexton is killing it, what is the likely percentage he get's on coaching contracts? 3-4% seems likely, but was just wondering, because this dude has got to be rolling in cash. He should wait to collect until after the first of the year to get some tax breaks.
Not sure on coaches, but the general range the interwebs says is 4%-10% of an athlete's contract and 10%-20% of their endorsement deals. The NFL doesn't allow agents to make more than 3% and the NBA doesn't allow more than 4%. As of the end of Q3 2017, Sexton has pulled in ~$26m in commissions YTD. FWIW, that represents #26 on the list of sports agents. #1 is Scott Boras at over $107m.

I'm in the wrong career field.
I am guessing, given his clout and connections, he commands 4-5%. According to Forbes, his overall annual comp is $20-30mm. Plus, working for CAA, I am sure everything else perk-wise is handled: regular use of company private jet, company car for personal use, all meals/lodging expensed, etc.
Does he still want to fight Troy Calhoun?
Remember when Christensen was one of the hottest OCs in college football for what he'd done at Mizzou?
Since Wyoming: Utah for 1 year as OL coach, aTm for 1 year as OL coach, out of football for 1 year, then ASU as a consultant.
Not sure this is a great hire for ASU even though it's a recognizable name.

Christensen is famous for pissing off everyone around him, especially his players. Ought to work out great.
Missouri fans think Jed Fisch will be their new OC. I probably screwed up the name. The former UCLA guy.
Darth Snyder update posted to FooballScoop:
Kansas State: Bill Snyder is “in the process” of making a decision of whether or not to come back, according to a tweet from John Kurtz from KMAN in Manhattan. The Wizard doesn’t expect to make up his mind until after K-State plays in the Cactus Bowl on Dec. 26.

Its not. His stock has fallen off the map since he left Mizzou-I think it goes to show what a mess that "New Leadership Model" is down there...I saw the K-State update-I'd be stunned if Snyder stepped down. He does-his son is the guy.

Of course, this comes out right after Leavit's new contract.
Leavitt still has the clause in his new contract that he can leave for KSU head coaching position.

True, but now his son has an opportunity to be a far less expensive option.
lol- it's Mr ****ing Howdy Doody
Gotta think that the strategy for Snyder is to draw this out as long as possible, probably even after spring ball, then hang it up so they're forced to hire his son on an interim basis. Whatever; with how much he's done for that program they should let him pick his successor.

Forced? That move would make me fire his son and promote someone else on staff.
He's a real jackass. Pissed off a lot of the WY fans up in Laramie and Cheyenne, who generally cut their HCs a lot of slack. The ASU future looks horrendous.
There are only 400k people in that wasteland of a state. How many "a lot" is a lot?
520K....lotsa elbow room up there.
Imagine what the parents are like for that program.....
I was just about to ask if the KjSU $0 buyout was included in the deal.
The crypt keeper isn't going to be able to make his son his successor however much he tries.
If his son had been able to match his late 90s/early 2000s performance (as everyone knows the crypt keeper has been fairly close to HC in name only the past 5 years), the KjSU "brain trust" might be more willing to go along.
But he hasn't.
Snyder Jr isn't going to be permanent HC, after Sr.
Crypt keeper needs to come to terms with that.
That Sherman thing is going to be interesting

And he will get that $20-$30 mm every year for the next 5-7 years, until another chaotic year in which he will up that total. This had to be the largest and most dramatic year of coaching changes at very large institutions. He also gets paid for the buyouts also!!! I am going to go and send him a resume
