So this is in a game against Cal during which Harmon had five touchdowns, including a 94-yard kick return touchdown, a 72-yard punt return touchdown, and 86-yard touchdown run in the first half. The guy trying to tackle him was apparently drunk.
Perhaps the wildest thing about Tom Harmon is that he was under 200 pounds. Also he dropped 34 points on Ohio State by himself (in a 40-0 victory), and got a standing ovation. In Columbus. michigantoday.umich.edu/2008/09/01/a66…
Also college football writing in the 1940s was very weird.
This game would have killed me.

If this person were keeping her kids home from school because math made them feel discomfort they'd be roasted into next year by an entire media consort
So there are a bunch of coaches (Jay Wright, for example) for whom I can't find a publicly available buyout number, but there are a number for whom their buyout is their salary (Huggins)
But what I keep finding is that there are a bunch of basketball coaches who have one amazing season and then get locked into incredibly lucrative long-term deals and from a financial perspective I simultaneously get it and don't
Mike Hopkins at Washington has a $12.1 million buyout because his contract was signed the day before the team's first NCAA tourney game in 8 years.

We have a tendency in media to highlight or focus on the people who aren't doing the thing when most people are doing the thing. Sometimes the extremes tell a fascinating story, or illustrate something about our culture, but sometimes, they don't.
I would disagree with you there, because I think that this permits a lot of folks to elide the responsibilities of power by claiming to not be powerful because of their educational status or race. Which gets into.... intersectionality!
The original paper Crenshaw wrote to explain intersectionality focused on three cases: DeGraffenreid v. General Motors, Moore v. Hughes Helicopter, Inc., and Payne v. Travenol.
These three cases centered on black women experiencing discrimination that took place because they were black women (black men didn't have the same experience, white women didn't have the same experience.)
