How do you figure Clark would get a million and half every year as a pension?

Just math. Ala Education pensions are based on 2.2 % per year.
So 3 million x (30 years Times 2.2 % ) EQUALS way over 1.5 Million.

The state doesn’t pay the coach’s full salary.

My comment means nothing. Just an educated guess.

That is usually true (my guess is Clark's state salary would be under one million or so).

I seen Sexton negotiated Contracts and they did require the purchase of a similar annuity for the booster paid part

Things should remain in good shape for us as long as negotiations don’t fall through between AU and Napier.

Say we get over this hurdle, Tennessee May open up again. However I can’t see Fulmer wanting to admit he was wrong, this soon.

It's obvious that the UA system is grooming Clark to take over after Saban.

shut yo' facehole.

Clark is the safety net if others don’t pan out.

ATL sports radio reporting the 4 finalists are Napier, Clark, Sarkisian, and Venables.

Is there any movement at UAB to do our best to keep him??? It's been radio silence. You would hope our people are putting together a new contract.

Coaching searches are filled w/ craziness & nothing new in 2020. Sources tell us Billy Napier has turned down the Auburn job. Keep a close watch on Bill Clark -- his interview went really well. Clark is incredibly well respected by his peers. A good possibility he is next in line

That guy founded both Rivals and 247Sports? Talk about building brands.

Getting down to the safety net.

Everybody freak out

Why are we hearing nothing on UAB's side????

I'm not freaking out. Auburn would be smart to hire Clark. I'm curious as to why Napier is staying put though.

Apparently he asked for 100% control and AU didn't want to give him that.

Because everything is in Clark’s hands right now. We can offer him the moon, but unless he signs, why would we release that information? It’s obvious the foundation respects him enough to be working on something here. I doubt they are dwindling their thumbs.

And I’m sure Ingram is currently putting feelers out, as that would be the most pressing issue in his life if Clark does go to Auburn.

I don't mean in an official capacity. I mean stuff leaked to a reporter. Just would be nice to know we're at least attempting to put together a new contract.
