Interesting Butch Jones Salary as "Special Assistant to the Head Coach" at Alabama

Would be interesting to know what his Tennessee contract said about mitigating salary and intent to pursue coaching opportunities.

Saban got Jones for $35,000 a year. And TN owed him over 8 million when he was fired. Sounds familiar.

I assume it was clearly written and the duties were clearly defined, unlike, apparently, Bielema’s set of agreements.

Jones has received monthly payments since he was fired November 2017. Those payments end in February 2021. He has received more than 2 million per year. TN loves to pay buyouts.
