He has an $18.4 mil buyout...NFL teams have a lot of money...but THAT kind of money???? Not sure I buy it.

Your post is an eye opener Jon, well done! People want to anoint O'Brien a saint for sticking with Pedo State when in fact it is easy to look like a saint when you do not have any other options.

A. His buyout would not been issue because PSU lied to O'Brien in saying that Sandusky was a criminal issue not an NCAA issue.

B. He got a $1.3 MILLION raise.

That makes no sense. BOB had a clause in his contract that called for an automatic extension in number of years to equal that of any NCAA sanctions that came down. He had both eyes open. If both sides truly operated under that premise, then no need for that clause.
