Deion Sanders’ first battle as a head coach wasn’t for a game or a recruit. It was about Nike. Salaries get most of the attention in coaching contracts, but there can be a lot more to them. ChrisVannini dives into some of CFB's most interesting deals.
The contract even has a section about catchphrases, not something most coaches bring. Coach Prime has a lot of intellectual property, after all. Per the contract, Sanders keeps the rights to his “trademarks, logos, copyrights, and catchphrases,” and “The Parties will mutually agree upon the use of catchphrases if used for internal Athletics Department promotional purposes.
“So long as Sanders is assigned duties as Head Football Coach, such termination by Sanders should occur at a time outside the Football Program playing season, including post-season games, so as to minimize the impact of such termination on the Football Program,” the contract says.Every coach receives a country club/golf club membership or reimbursement for club dues, good for the entire family.

He can receive $5,000 if season tickets sold to fans increases from 10 to 24.99 percent, a $10,000 bonus if it’s 25-49.99 percent and $15,000 if it’s greater than 50 percent.
The contracts ban “Soliciting, placing or accepting by COACH of a bet on any intercollegiate or professional athletic contest, or permitting, condoning or encouraging by COACH of any illegal gambling, bookmaking or illegal betting involving any intercollegiate or professional athletic contest whether through a bookmaker, a parlay card, a pool or any other method of organized gambling; or furnishing by COACH of information or data relating in any manner to FOOTBALL or any other sport to any...
