Big Buyout for Gottfried
Mark Gottfried will reportedly receive a buyout of more than $2 million from the University of Alabama. He will get 29 payments of roughly $75,000 each.

Florida Atlantic Head Coach Mike Jarvis was suspended for this past Saturday’s game vs. Arkansas State. The suspension was a result of the three technical fouls that he received in the Owls 1/22 game vs. Louisiana-Monroe. The Sun Belt Conference is still investigating the matter and may suspend Jarvis for more games. I’ve been in
Jarvis Update
Still haven’t been able to get the video on the Jarvis 3-technical-ejection, but here’s what went down: Apparently towards the end of the first half, there was a questionable call near the FAU bench.
