Charlie Weis Is Still Getting PAID, Even Though He Was Fired by Notre Dame in 2009
By Ty Duffy
Charlie Weis is basically retired at 58. But, he is still being paid handsomely for it. Per ESPN.com Notre Dame paid Charlie Weis $2,054,744 over the last fiscal year, making him the athletic department’s second highest paid employee. He’s still owed additional payments through December, which would bring the total buyout to around $19 million.
That’s just the Notre Dame buyout. Weis is also owed $5.6 million by Kansas through the end of 2016.
Moral of the story: hire a good agent.
