When a program is struggling like IU…. it shouldn’t insist on a large buyout.
It’s shortsighted. If the flavor of the month coach winds up being a turd, you are stuck with him and you keep sucking longer.
If the guy turns out to be great and gets hired away, you still have a better program that is now more attractive to better coaching candidates.
Large buyouts make no sense for programs like IU, which presumably want to get better.
