Incredibly, Louisville still has to pay Petrino $14 million even though he has a new job:
Worst part about Bobby Petrino resurfacing at Missouri State is that his getting a job does not reduce #Louisville’s $14 million obligation. AD Vince Tyra has addressed this oversight in more recent contracts, but not much he can do about deals he inherited.
