Clemson football coach Dabo Swinney reportedly signed a 10-year, $93 million last Friday, which was the largest deal in CFB history.
Swinney’s contract surpassed that of Jimbo Fisher’s at Texas A&M (10-year, $75 million), which was previously the biggest contract in College Football.
The contract also has one of the most interesting buyout clauses. Should Swinney choose to leave Clemson for Alabama before the contract runs out, there would be a 50 percent increase in the buyout. That means that the Crimson Tide will have to pay double to get Swinney in a buyout than any other program in the nation would should Dabo choose to leave.
