Technically he wouldn't have gotten a payout from them at all since he was making $8.166M a year there which makes the per year difference actually in Penn State's favor. They could have played hard ball and said we wont owe you a dime.
If Castellanos could throw an accurate deep ball FSU would have 5 or 6 TDs tonight. He keeps underthrowing every time.

NC State nearly put me to sleep with a nine minute drive after getting FSU 3 and out to start the second half.
Laws we should've broke a decade ago.

I just want to know what laws were breaking to get this money

Big damn planes, lots of noise and vibration. The cargo haulers have flown over too, and we're right in line with the route the fighter jets use for training or whatever.
It is pretty neat because we're no where near any military installations here in the northwest shenandoah valley
NC State and FSU like watching a badminton game...just bad offense on both sides.
...and he did it in style
Thank you to everyone who showed support after I flipped my commitment, it means a lot. And to those who didn't, I get it. People change their minds.I'll keep working, stay humble, and represent Jesus Christ in how I live and compete. I'm grateful for everyone on this journey. pic.twitter.com/fUuqSGJSl8— Owen McMullen (@Owen__McMullen) November 21, 2025

# | James Franklin Contract Released 5 Yrs, $41.75M. $9.5M pool for assistants, $6M pool for support staff Is that the size of plane we needed to get all the coots to the game tomorrow?
True, but many of those same players may not be around next year!
Those things fly over my house super low, it rattles everything

Air drop a few Ferraris on pallets
Something went wrong in that locker room. That's definitely the biggest concern and why I think if he's around it should be as an analyst or ambassador.
Edit: It would also be the most Tech thing ever to have this slam dunk and and follow it up with one of the strangest coordinator hires of all time.

No, this is a very normal amount. For example, Lane Kiffin's is $ 4 million right now and drops to $ 1.5 million by the last year of his current contract.
No, effective date through 12/31/25 is $6M prorated.
I'm with you on not being crazy about him as DC, but not because or LBs sucked. He wasn't responsible (directly) for developing LBs in his role as HC.
I'm more concerned that players soured on him when he was HC and that negativity will still remain if he's DC.
This flew over my house today and I learned it's in town for tomorrow's flyover.
I should've known the contract was huge. This plane's the only thing big enough to deliver that kinda cash. I suppose they can just supply drop it to him on the 50 yard line tomorrow in front of all the recruits.

The first time he puts us in the ACCCG or wins us 10 games, there will be schools looking to poach him.
The schools that are looking to poach him will not care what his buyout figure is - they'll pay it and figure out the money later.
This is one of the major problems with the disparity in TV revenue.
EDIT: and it'll be up to us as an institution to keep him in the boat when that happens, just like it was up to us to get him in the boat this time.
If we're going to be a part of a new era of funding, it'll be a new way of funding long term, not just this one time.

OMG THAT PUNT MUFF! I've never seen anything like that ever before
