Rebuild Mode in Dallas: Maybe Colleges Should Lend Us Some Buyout Money | Just Wondering with Norm Hitzges
Norm Hitzges is just wondering what’s next for the Dallas Mavericks after the Luka and Nico departures—and how colleges keep cutting massive checks to fired football coaches. From rebuilding around Cooper Flagg and Derek Lively to jaw-dropping buyouts like Jimbo Fisher’s $77 million payday, Norm breaks down how sports franchises and universities handle their biggest (and priciest) mistakes. The Mavs may be starting from scratch, but at least no one’s getting $50 million to not show up to work.
