With all this talk about lifetime contracts with Beard and Self I suppose it's time we just sign Coach Campbell to one.
The new contract features several references to Big 12 and NCAA violations, including a clause that specifically outlines that KU "will not terminate Head Coach for cause due to any current infractions matter that involves conduct that occurred on or prior to the date of full execution of this Agreement."

Interim AD hires Self, interim AD gives him a lifetime contract...
That's just fantastic. This gives me a really great feeling about their search for a new AD and then a new head coach for football. Assuming they go in that order, that is.KU apparently went to the Gary Barta School of Negotiating Against Yourself.
There is no such thing as a lifetime contract in reality. They can fire him anytime they want, he will leave anytime he wants. Money will be exchanged.
This is purely for recruiting so that recruits know for certain that he will be there regardless of the ncaa case. Self has no desire to move on from Kansas.Agree. Isn't the buyout figure more meaningful for KU vs. them thinking the 'lifetime contract' would effect Self's decision to move on?
