I looked into NHL, NBA, MLB and NFL coaches and somehow college football coaches have received the biggest buyouts when they are fired.
Most of the biggest buyouts have come from public universities which often claim to be “strapped for cash” and cut faculty and grad student lines.

Miles Hewstone has now been removed from many prestigious positions due to the media coverage.

Allowing him—and others—to keep these positions allows for retaliation and stops people from coming forward with complaints. They are worried guys like him destroy their career.
