I fear Whitford is returning for 19-20 since I think the approximate 900k buyout on his contract would not get approved. If I had say a few million lying around as most of us would I'd end his tenure in a second. That said, if Neu was let go next December would that make canning Whit too cost prohibitive or is it a nonfactor. By the way hopefully the football team takes 2 full steps forward, but I don't have confidence in either program.
It is just so irritating that Ball State ADs are so careless with contract extensions but have to be careful when it comes to moving on it it isn't working. Taylor was retained after that lousy 2011-12 season due to finances as well.

I'm guessing they'll both be fired after one more season.
Sorry state of affairs in our athletic department.
