Question: "What type of things need to be done with addressing extending bad coaches or coaches contracts"

Responses: Don't do it. Have better Evals. Don't overextend your pocketbook. More incentive based contracts. However, is FSWHO is dumb enough to pay Taggert 19 mil, go for it, he fleeced them, good for him, benefit of the bargain.

Side note: F@ck finebaum
 
I'm the last Cuckbo defender but FSU left itself in a mess. They obviously thought Cuckbo was replaceable and that their mighty program could sustain itself so this is what you get when you exacerbate arrogance with a lazy/bad hire. We know the drill.

Coaches tend to hold a majority of the leverage in these scenarios. That's why you keep seeing schools overextend themselves to pay for a new hire.

Pretty easy process:

1) Dont throw a ton of guaranteed money at someone who got fired. They got fired for a reason.
2) Don't throw a ton of guaranteed money at someone who hasn't proven it at this level.
3) Don't throw a long high value extension at one season sample size when you bring someone in.

Every coach should expect to wait until they are winning with their own players to both be fired, or extended. That is the contract situation that needs to be established to protect the athletic departments. You risk a coach being poached, but im sure FSU would have preferred to risk a poach than be in this position.

Contracts need to be incentive laden and have built in outs as well. Enough of both to be worth while to both parties.

How does all of that impact recruiting...?

I don't think willie is going to get kids there because of his buyout, more likely competing recruiting staffs will use his record against him.

Big time programs are getting rid of bad coaches no matter how far they are extended anyway. Pretty over blown value to recruiting to extend someone. No kid or family should be falling for that.

I'm speaking more to the suggested incentive-laden contracts that might raise questions about coaching stability.

That’s a great plan but easier said than done. Willie for example was sitting pretty at Oregon.

Coach favored contracts are a risk every school has to take to take in today’s game.
