“Arizona's two largest state universities have fired their head football coaches ‘without cause’ in the past six weeks, meaning the schools are on the hook for paying out the full amount of their remaining contracts.
"The University of Arizona's payout to Rich Rodriguez is $6.28 million” while Arizona State University's payment to Todd Graham is $12 million. That's more than $18 million going to the dismissed coaches, with Rodiguez's contract running until May 31, 2020 and Graham's expiring June 30, 2021.
"Under the terms of their contracts, both men are entitled to 100 percent pay for the remainder of their contracts. That applies even if they take other coaching jobs."
