NCAA coach salaries should be limited by law to no more than what the university prez makes, and they should have to sign the same employment contracts as the teaching staff. (ie, if they leave in the middle of a year, they are barred from similar employment until the term of their contract expires.) I resent my tax money going for semi-pro sports teams that happen to be co-located with universities.
Hey, andymeijers…why? If you aren’t happy, don’t rely on that type of rule–address it within your school. I understand your frustration, but that is a problem with your school. I also see no reason why a university should be a minor league basketball or football team, but the money for the coaches typically comes not from the university directly, but from boosters groups or advertisers. That money was never going to be available for poor students or starving professors.

I’d second that clause. Copyright infringement in panel 4 though.
