Newspaper says that Weis' buyout figure isn't as high as reported

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ESPN.com news services

CHICAGO -- Is Charlie Weis' job as the head football coach at Notre Dame safe because of the size of his contract buyout? The Chicago Tribune cited sources Wednesday who dispute that.

The Tribune, citing multiple sources, reported that earlier reports on the size of Weis' buyout -- previously said to be as much as $10 million -- are inaccurate. The paper also said that the amount isn't enough to affect whether Notre Dame decides to part ways with Weis.

Notre Dame (6-5), coming off an embarrassing home loss to lightly-regarded Syracuse, plays at No. 5 USC on Saturday night (8 p.m. ET, ESPN).

The Tribune reported that typical buyouts for college football coaches are base salary times years remaining on a contract. Weis' base salary for the 2007 season was $598,000, according to a report in the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette, which attributed the figure to Notre Dame's tax forms.

If Weis' salary was up to $650,000, the paper reported, that would put his buyout at less than $5 million. The paper, citing an unnamed prominent alumnus, called a buyout figure "loose change."

Earlier this month, Notre Dame athletic director Jack Swarbrick said he will not evaluate Weis until after the season, and that anyone who suggests a coaching change could occur should know that it is "not under consideration at this time."

Notre Dame = Nebraska. Former powerhouses that need to come to grips with the fact that they aren't what they used to be.

Sure, if he wants to be an Offensive Coordinator.

Lou Holtz would be cheaper.

I still can't believe Notre Lame lost to Syracuse.

That's like a pro team losing to the Chie.... uh, never mind.

**The Franchise** · 11-26-2008, 11:22 AM

I'm a Notre Dame fan.....and I'm going to have to say no. The guy is nothing but a average offensive coordinator at best. Look at Brady's stats when Weis was the coordinator.......average. The only reason that he and Brady looked good was because of the Pat's defenses those years.

****. No.

If Notre Dame ever wants to compete for a Championship again, they need to lower their academic standards.

Sad but true.
