Shane Beamer receives raise, contract extension
The board of trustees officially extended Shane Beamer's contract on Friday morning.

The buyout is 65% of his current contract. Large.
That's a whole different topic.
I liked the idea floated a few times that buyouts should be dictated by results. Buying out a 3-9 coach should not cost the same as a 9-3 coach.
But that would be a huge shift in contracts.
I calculate 48.6%/yr increase during that timespan. GO COCKSHuge raise from 4 years ago at 2.75 to 8.1 million and has one winning conference record (5-3). Has won less than 50 percent of conference games but has a 2-2 record against the Tigers and that’s the most important part. Congratulations to Coach Beamer.
hahahahahah$2mil bump through 2030 (w/ escalation).
Between this, the Harris defeat, and a potential tour in Greenland - Watson is preparing to recede far deeper into his Foxhole than he ever anticipated.
Visionary.
Nobody was coming after Beamer so why the rush
Based on what performance? Beamer got a raise because he has beaten Clemson. The university has always put that up at the top. I think Coach Beamer has really surprised some people with his coaching abilities and that’s a good thing. Now he’s going to ride Sellers for another raise.How do you know that nobody was coming? That's not something which always hits the press. Some schools have class and keep discussions private.
The contract had to be re-negotiated this year, he had a great season, and won Coach of The Year. He received the SEC industry average.
He could have easily walked and found that money somewhere else based on performance.
