Athletic director Scott Stricklin had already stated after the introductory news conference Monday that Dan Mullen would make $6 million per year with a flat $12 million buyout that would be reduced once the money owed to the coach dipped below that threshold, while Mullen would owe the school $2 million if he left for another job.

To hire a top football coach in 2017, the going rate is between $5 and 7.5 million per year.
