The most intriguing part about the new agreement is a section titled “Head Coach Determination,” which “recognizes Coach Scalley as the likely replacement for Coach Whittingham upon Coach Whittingham’s retirement/termination from the University.”
“Should Coach Scalley be offered the Head Coach position, and accept that offer, the University will pay Coach Scalley the amount identified in the following chart pursuant to a new employment agreement with terms reasonably similar to those of other comparably qualified head football coaches in the Big 12,” the contract reads.
Doesn't seem like there's any contractual guarantee that they WILL offer him the job.
Also, there's this ...
Upon his retirement, Whittingham will serve as special assistant to the athletics director for five years, with a salary of $995,000 per year.
